Other Tips for Making Eyes:
1. Sand the edges of the eyeball after baking and before adding resin if you want clean edges.
2. Eyes made with this method can be made at any size—simply scale all your materials accordingly.
3. Translucent clay mixed with white or off-white clay can be used for the white part of the eye for an even more realistic look.
4. As explained in the video, eyes CAN be baked within your clay projects in the oven. When doing this you MUST ensure that NO AIR is behind the eyeball when it is added to the clay. If there is air behind it, it will create pressure and cause the resin to crack and you will be very sad.
