Eye woes

[thesaraghina]

Ok, I know I said I'd post a pic as "visual aid" to go along with yesterday's bjd-fic, but I just got my SMJ package in and wanted to try out some new eyes in Leonidas first. I'm not sure if I want to leave them in or not, actually. I like the Hitomiyas A LOT better than the HGs he was wearing, but they're slightly smaller, and I think he really

I really like the color, but I agree that they do seem a little small. They're gorgeous eyes, btw. <3

Ah, thanks for the input! :) I really like Hitomiyas, and will probably just end up trying for a similar pair on Y!J in a slightly bigger size. XD;

I think those eyes are just gorgeous and I don't think they're too small at all (note: I generally like smaller eyes in dolls, but these don't even look small). I love this color

Did you see the 18mm purple mystics FS? (Maybe way too purple for your tastes -- pretty bright. I'd buy them if I had anyone who takes large eyes, but I don't): http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?t=232486&highlight=purple+18mm

I generally like smaller sizes as well, but I think Leonidas will do well with a bigger iris, seeing as how he's a bit of a daydreamer. The bigger eye just gives him a softer, sweeter look, I think. It really is a great color though, I'll probably just trawl Y!J and get another, larger pair. :B

And thanks for the link! But yeah, that's a little too vibrant for what I'm going for. ^^; I'm really into the color of both pairs of eyes I've put him in so far, I just want the quality of the Hitomiyas and the size of the HGs. And also, this porridge is too hot, I want some that's cooler! XD;

Yay Sakaki teefs! <3

I like the eyes he's got in, they're lovely! But I agree he'll need something a bit bigger to keep him in character. He looks mature and a bit distant with the 17mm. The eyes in the photoshopped pic are more gentle and have a hint of sweetness.

[thesaraghina]

I knew he had them, but totally forgot about it before he came home. I still wish she'd painted them different than his mouth, though. Cute little teefs! ;_;

I think I'm gonna go for a pair just like these, but in a bigger size. Y!J has to have something for me! O: The 17mm works, but you're right, he's more shrewd with the smaller iris, and I want him to look like a dreamer. :3

Hitomiya > HG. I don't think they look too small at all. They're gorgeous. And OMG TEEF! T_T

I've been too blargh to comment on this boy yet, I think, but he's adorable. I love Sakaki. ♥

[thesaraghina]

Oh, hitomiya > HG x10000000000! I do love them, which is why he's gonna wear them for a while, but I think I'm gonna try to find him some of the same ones, just slightly bigger so he looks more like a daydreamer. :3 (And yes, teef! x3)

Aww, s'ok. *hug* Thank you! <3

I don't think they look too small, but it also depends on his personality. These smaller eyes make him look more aware and kind of attentive, if that makes sense. Whereas bigger eyes make him look softer and more dreamy.

And aw, I didn't realize he has teeth~ so cute T3T

[thesaraghina]

Yeah, the size can work, but I do want that dreamy look. Just gonna have to find some bigger Hitomiyas! O: (I totally feel like Goldilocks with this eye issue. ^^; )

They're so cute! I really want to try to paint them white, but I'm chicken, 'cause I just know I'll mess him up. T_T
