Dragon Eye (study for Smaugust 2026)

[Sarah_Draws (Sarah McKenzie)]

Dragon eye study in Blender to kick off Smaugust 2026!

I have wanted to sculpt a dragon eye for a while now, and I finally got around to doing it.

I also experimented with pupil dilation and other shapekeys in the basic animation I made.
