Quest for custom eyes

[dullahan]

I wanted to push my 3D printing creation skills forward and thought to try making the most realistic doll eye I could. Thought it would be nice to share the progress so far:

With the veins there are little bumps in the white parts, that need some more training to get rid of during the manufacturing process. But smaller bumps due to the veins add a more realistic gloss to the eyes, which is a pretty cool effect.

Since the PiB head I have is smaller than a normal head, the iris part for normal eyes seemed too big for the eye holes. Will do a photoshoot once I make eyes with proper iris size for the head

how much do you think it costs you to produce 2 eyes?

do you plan on selling some in the near future? and if so, do you have a price in mind?

thanks

First close-up doll shot of the eyes (quick mobile phone shot under normal house lighting). I used lower quality materials for the iris so they're not as vivid in color as the newer generation of eyes. Still super glossy and the veins bring some added realism to the eyes.

I sent you a PM about it. Haven't thought much about making these for others as I stated but there is a lot of work that goes into these at the moment.
