black eye

I want to try and make that black shading around the eye.
I see it in a lot of the plugs. Is that a steady hand or do you use a template. I don't have an airbrush just rattle cans, and really can't control the width of spray. Was thinking cut a hole in piece of paper for template. Anybody want to share their technique.
I've been kind of using the "Bob Ross" style of happy little accidents, and would like to develop some of the technique I see on these boards. The eye shading is my next interest.

Yep ROCFISH it's a 5.99 airbrush from Ocean State Joblot. I used an airtank like the ones for tires and a regulator for power before I bought a 99.00 compresser from Sears.

Merry Christmas, guys! Yeah, Tagger, the little Chubby"s red cedar. Thank you all for your compliments, that means a lot coming from my teachers. I've learned something from everyone who has posted. Sometimes more than I can process Thanks.
