Can't get the eyes right

Question

I've followed everything step by step, yet no matter what I try I can't seem to get the eyes right, mainly that they seem much smoother on the tutorial than what I can create. Does anyone know where I'm going wrong?

For blocking in the eyes at this stage, they seem good to me. As a block-in the bar is pretty low. You just need to get close which I think you have for sure. I say continue on 👍

I agree with the master sculptor,

The position looks good, the almond shape looks good.

Continue on, you will come back to the eyes in a later lesson.

Hi

I had a similar issue, where the resolution of the eyes was just too low.

They looked just liked your eyes, very pixelated and not smooth.

I noticed that my simplify brush (or any other) does not add new resolution to the mesh.

I ended up moving to object mode, adding decimate modifier 50% and when I went back to sculpt mode I was able to add new resolution to the mesh and create eyes that are as smooth as the one on the tutorials.

Not sure how I ended up in this situation, this is the second time I am trying out these lessons, first time round had no issue with the mesh (a part for the fact it looked awful lol)
