How to make perfect eyes on miniatures?

Christopher Z asked:


I’m a collector of miniatures. I have many models from Games Workshop, Dark Heaven , Warlord , War Machine and Hordes .

I notice one of the best way to succeed in making perfect eyes is to prime the figurines with a white spray can and to use a pigma micron pen to make a small dot.
If the dot is too big, just covering with a little bit of white paint can fix the mistake.

The problem I sometimes have is that Game Workshop Skull White paint is sometimes too thick. Dilute it with water, then it covers the whole eye with a watery.

So when you don’t succeed, you try again…..

But I was curious to know if you guys had any tricks of the trade?
