I may have new characters, but I still take good care of my older ones too..
It's hard to believe that Eddie Bear is 3 years old and still looks this good, especially with all the use he gets. Unfortunately, the eyes he had were beginning to suffer, mainly from some obnoxious kids doing the 'eye poke' thing. Believe me, it's rough to rip your eyes out!!
In the first photo, you can see the new ones in the foreground, ready to be cut out of the buckram. I was experimenting with possibly adding highlights, too.
The second photo is the new eyes installed.
