Description
These are the 8x11mm eyes, after taken apart and customized. ♥(bag of eyes from previous picture)
The iris size looks much better now.
Just tested some other fillers, to see how they'd look.
I was able to clear up the lenses by rubbing them with a wet magic eraser. First time using one, and even though it was a "Mr Clean" magic eraser, it worked great!
I hear you can take of factory paint with them too. (gotta try it)
So anyway, the purple and silver eyes were a glittery/holographic film from a 99cent store ghost garland thingy. (top two eyes on the bottom picture)

The bottom two eyes, on the bottom photo, are Angelina Film (left) and a flat-back clear gem (right).
Tutorial coming this weekend, PROMISE!
I need to take better in-progress/procedural pictures.

This size looks great for them!
I got a few myself, I'm just scared to start putting them into a doll.
I would try hollowing out the area right around the eyes a little more if possible, so the lid doesn't look quite so thick. That's just personal preference though
Have you tried working with fake eyelashes with them?

Awesome, thanks! I do like this size better than the larger ones.
And yeah...definitely need to shave down the inner eye wall.
It's hard to get in there on this head, since the cheek walls seem thicker than others.
My cupid head was not this difficult.
:<
Don't be scared! Just try it out first on like a SS doll or something. ♥
Make sure you have a good eye shape in mind, because it gradually can get bigger once you start carving away slivers.
Yes on the eyelashes! I actually have some lower-eyelashes that are in small groups, instead of long ones I'd have to cut. They are pretty darn cute, and I can't wait to glue it all together.

For sure I'll try 
Yeah I would imagine it would be crazy awkward trying to get into that space properly to carve it out.
I didn't think of that yeah, makes sense about the eye shape. Thanks for the advice!
They souuund cute, the extra step of cutting it just takes more time out of ya. Can't wait to see it altogether
