Fixing Crazy Action Figure Eyes

eyes2

Sometimes we get a little action figure doll and it’s eyes are not painted correctly. Sometimes they have a wandering eye, sometimes crazy eyes.

When we got Belle, she had crazy eyes. I did not take a picture of the eyes at the time, so I shall illustrate how her eyes looked compared to how they should look:

If you want to make someone look crazy, have their pupil surrounded by white. I broke out the sharpie.

Less crazy. Sure they are very dark eyes, but we preferred them to the little black dots of a mad woman.

The other day Lou got a fairy. She had a wandering eye.

Sharpie time.

    Great idea! We have a bunch of figures with eyes that are just wrong. Considering the way I draw, the dolls would probably go from “crazy” eyes to “scary, nightmare-inducing” eyes, but it’s worth a shot. This would make a great Parent Hack. Oh wait – you’re already there!
