Uv eyes

Recommended Posts

I make my UV eyes by placing some holographic paper on heads of screws with a glue stick that are mounted in wood. I paint them, and put the pupil in with a qtip. Then I place a drop of uv resin on the top. A big drop will make a complete half ball. A small drop will make a thinner one. After a bit under a uv light their ready to use.

Your success is the best compliment. Thanks and glad it's going to work for you. It's getting so that with the UV resin I can whip up a batch in no time at all now. Also... the main point is it's very, very satisfying. I just made some red ones for a sinister nait I just made. Video is here should you be interested. They eye part is in the middle'ish of the video.
