Woah I actually remembered a birthday!!
Also I’m gonna take a break from posting for personal reasons, just letting you all know.
While carving eyelids can really enhance a custom, there are cons the carving the kids being they won’t be able to fully close them after and there may be risk of a slip and cutting too deep into them, if you do don’t fear, I’ve seen lots of people fix slips with air dry clay and then paint over them to hide the clay!
But onto the tutorial!
So I start off by taking off the furbies shell and removing the eye pins and pulling out the eyelids. You can find how to get them out in a lot of tutorials on how to remove the faces for long furbies but Here you will be screwing it back together so be careful not to lose screws!
Once they’re out I draw out the guide lines, Be it angry or sad or whatever you wish!
These ones are Brie’s so they were angry!
Then using some nail cutters like these
I cut from the start of each edge, making sure to not cut off or through the holes on the side that thread the eyelids on the pin!
Then after the entry cuts are made I go through them following the guide line with a scalpel. a dremel tool is also very good and probably better but sadly I don’t own one so be careful it’s very tough and can be a little dangerous so make sure to cut away from you!
After you’ve cut them they should look something like this!
then it’s just a matter of smoothing them out with sandpaper or a nailfile, making sure they’re even and putting them back together!
This was the finished result of this baby!
