    Default Eyes


    Taking some time tonight to make some eyes. Maybe a little time consuming but time is something I have lots of. Stormin' outside, so I'm doing this...

    Buckeye, I'll wait till tomorrow morning to put the two-part epoxy on them to finish them up. need to get some different colors of the Holographic vinyl sheeting for the back ground on the eyes. Maybe some red, chartreuse, and orange...These are 3/16" or 5mm.

    Ok...I tried an experiment on 12 of the eyes, and as seen, didn't turn out so well. Learned not to use 5 min. Epoxy, as it leaves the eyes cloudy at best...Others were done with UV Resin from HobbyLobby. Name:  20230303_083519.jpg

    Are you punching the eyes out of cardstock? If so, what are you using for the different sizes?
    Thanks
