Thread: Eyeballs eyeballs eyeballs

Tweet

Can anyone tell me where I can get some good looking eyeballs for a good price? I really don't want to spend an arm and a leg for eyeballs.

last year, I went to Hobby Lobby and bought some foam balls and a package of animal eyes. Fairly cheap , very easy, and better than anything else I could've made. Will take a pic today and post later if you'd like to see what they look like.

That's a great idea. If you could post some pictures that would be outstanding.

Also, you may want to check out Van Dyke's Taxidermy. They have loads of eyeballs. Maybe you can find one that fits your budget: Glass Eyes at Van Dykes Taxidermy

There are quite a few great tutorials on 'eyeballs' on the forum. I believe Terra made one a few months ago. But this is what I use. Hope it helps:

Dang, Terra, those are great prices and they look wonderful.

Yeah, well your idea is wonderful too. Quick and effective!

Nice looking eyes! Thanks for the tips.

I bought my Reindeer/Wolf eyes from them last year (Van Dykes). They even have a product called Nite Eyes which are a special set of eyeballs that can be lit from behind. I didn't buy the whole lighting system from them and instead we added our own LED/9V battery light system. Van Dyke's is a nice place to buy from--friendly and helpful staff and product arrived promptly. Great quality too.

Thanks CreeepyCathy for the photos of your solution. Nice look and great price point.

BTW Hauntings by Design, what do you need the eyeballs for? In-skull use, jar of eyeballs, etc? Helps to know.

here is the one i used,, my kidz and i had a lot of fun making these,, cheap and easy too!!!

Easy cheap realistic eyeballs!!!!!!
