Step 8: Draw the smilodon's eye on the upper left portion inside the head. Use the lines as guides for placement. The shape of the smilodon's eye is similar to a greater-than sign with a curved line for the eyeball. Shade the inside of the eyeball except for a tiny circle to represent glare. Add a few lines around the eye for extra detail on the fur.
