This was actually taken a while ago (reposting my OC from Reddit) but honesty painting my eyes havent gotten much better haha. Toothpick is a good suggestion!

I use a "hack"; paint the whites, and then once dry use a micron pen (the insanely fine tip ones) to "paint" the blacks. Squidmar on YouTube has a video on it

I always use a pin. Dip the point in paint to pick up a tiny drop, then gently guide the pin onto the eye to deposit it
