The Eyes

The eye design was developed from "follow me" eye tutorials used by many furry artists. Some youtube video tutorials:

Using a Watercolour Pallet - My design was based mostly on this method.
Using "Fun Foam" - I have used this method before, but felt it was unprofessional looking and has the tendency to make the heads look cross eyed front on.
Using Buckram and Loo-roll Tubes - I have used buckram before to base eyes off of, but used fun foam to line them.


I made the base of the eyes by lathing then vac-forming chemi-wood.

My first set of eyes after painting them by hand. The black outside of the eye design is faux leather.
