Here’s a short video on how add a little sparkle to my carvings eyes. An easy thing to do which will add a great affect to your pieces. The old painted white highlight might work but this method give yours eyes that special, life-like twinkle. Comments welcome.
The video wasn’t available. I use 5 min. two part epoxy glue, clear kind, and apply with a small pointed object to cover the eyeball. Works fantastic. It’s thicker than most other glossy type finishes which makes it look more like the cornea.
Lynn,
Great technique! I have been using it for a few years, and the eyes of my carvings always get positive remarks.
