Just like everyone else has said, it looks great. But, those eyes, they're so lifelike. Did you use a lighter clay or paint it, mayble the lighting? Anyhow, great work!

Ack! I mean, thank you! ^^; I meant to take this one down; I've worked on it SO much since.

And umm..... thank you for the very kind comment! I love comments, just like cookies; I nibble them so they last a long time. Delicious! :heart:

'BYE! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

.... you're still here? Oh, you asked a question... you were waiting for me to answer it? Right.. well, would you think less of me if I told you that the eyes were, here, about 75% fake? ^^; They photographed terribly, so I photoshopped them.

...They are 100% real, just dark enough that you can't see how crappy they actually are. *G* They're just straight-pins, the kind with round plastic heads, stuck into the Sculpey. I cut the metal pin down so it wouldn't stick out of the back of his head, then I lightly drew a pupil and iris on with a very soft pencil.. my whole motivation was to get rid of the blank alien look, but it ended up looking rather cool! Cool, assuming you can't see them clearly. :lol: If you can, you'd see that they're really very blobby.

I hope I haven't ruined the magic for you! ^^; Thanks again for the kind words!
