Subject: Re: [Puptcrit] Making Eyes


>Mathieu,
I am sorry that I have not tried the micro mesh as well, and cannot
give any review of its performance. I will say that it usually isn't
necessary for me, since I usually don't back paint my eyes. For that,
you would need to really polish the injection marks. I usually sand
the mark down, spray it with white primer, airbrush on a pupil and
iris, then cover the whole thing in epoxy. Since the epoxy does
yellow over time, backpainting is probably better for longevity, so
if someone tries that micromesh, let us know how it works.

I don't backpaint either...yet, but I'd love to try.
The availability of the clear perfect half domes around here (Montreal) is 
at best less likely than being made a pop star overnight. I've seen other 
shapes, mostly eggs and hearts depending on the upcoming holliday, and the 
quality of the plastic was brittle at best. As is my usual, I'll wait 'till 
I find a local supplier, or to find an online supplier that accepts Paypal 
payments.
