Description So, here is my first go at eye decal attempts. It turned out smooth and non flaky... so I thought I show everyone what I did.

Hope this helps someone!

Also if needed, check out ~Asenva on YouTube - she also has a tutorial - [link]

Something to share, post eye-decal. If your head isn't on the doll yet, take care when putting on the head so that you don't bend or crack the decal.

Warm the neck hole for a few minutes with a hair dryer. Push the head down carefully so you don't bend or flex the vinyl. The first time I put my bitty bitsu head on the doll I cracked the eyes. I didn't realize I'd bent the head quite so much. Oops!

I put a dab of water down and smoothed them back out again (and re-sprayed more MSC) but still.

Thanks so much Arakis!

can you use any other sealer like mod podge of a clear spray paint or is MSC something special for dolls

I only recommend MSC. It's not going to damage resin. I'd avoid anything else.

Good Tutorial!! I would like to know what is their exact size...can I use them on the bigger dolls too? I mean I would like to try them on my 30" baby doll as I don't want to change her eye-balls so will try sticking these eyes...but from the Junky spot site I did not know if I can buy bigger Decals...Thanks : )

Thanks. And I have no idea about putting them on a baby doll, as far as sizes go you can check around on eBay for more. Just look for Eye decals

Where do you get the decal paper? I know one can print their own designs.

sdrcow In reply to lajvio [2011-12-04 00:30:51 +0000 UTC]

yeah they seem to crack easily because of the soft rubber - so once they dry they are pretty easy to mess up =x Maybe on a solid item they'd be ok. But an Obitsu head isnt the best IMO

Yup, you got it. The 11cm Obitsu boy with a Parabox Child Head. The head actually had rooted hair to start but, sadly, I completely messed it up by attempting to cut it. Haha. Anyway I got both items from the Junky Spot [link]
