Subaru Posted March 19, 2014 Bad puns aside... I'm trying to come up with eye ideas??? Feed me ideas and I will try to make them... cast in resin and such.... I'm kinda struggling with making designs for the eyes...... orz As you can see the first one I did is a clone of the Twin-Snow stardust collection. Oh! Also... Sorry if this sounds dumb but... HOW THE HECK DO I DO METALLIC PRINTS? LIke... Where the white shines are actually white? Do i have to cut out a separate print with the white part or...????

Oni-Chan Posted March 19, 2014 I can't help with how to produce them, but I really LOVE both those eye styles/colours you've shown there *o* I have more dollfies than my age in years *×* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bitterfishies Posted March 19, 2014 They're are special printer and ink cartridges that print metallic, but you can cheat if you find pearlesent(Can't spell it sorry!) paper. I've ordered it online once, though I lost the seller and haven't really looked for it since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Aurea Posted March 19, 2014 I got choked up by the pun Not sure on how to make eyes/process and such. But photo shop does wonders with making fun custom templates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I wonder if that would work the printer I'm thinking of getting? Who knows maybe I need to look into it a little bit harder... ><;; My wallet needs a vacation 💸Blog Insta Ko-Fi Etsy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The photography lab at my college had them,but I only took basic photography. So I never used them... And it was a few years ago ^^; I did find an article with the pearl/metallic paper, but I can't post links. I'll edit this post when I can! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Theres metallic ink carts for inkjet xD just wondering since I'm thinking of getting a Epson stylus r2200 if it's work.... I dont think so though. >< I know roland does metallic printing but those printers are usually for printing houses and stuff so that's out of the question. Thanks though!
