I am hoping to. It would have been here a long time ago but some of the footage is on a hard drive that stopped reading properly. I’ve been planning on sending it out to get recovered. As soon as I restore all the footage I can finish editing this series.
This is awesome! I also appreciate you mentioning the fact that a lot of art and art materials are single-use and disposable. Surprisingly I haven't heard many artists talk about it, but it's something I think about with every project I work on, and I can't help but feel a little guilty sometimes. That said, it's good to see another artist who's so dedicated to reusing what they can and minimizing waste :)
This is awesome. Seen the process before, but now that you told me not only how long it takes and where to get everything to Make the new eyes. Not just the molds, I'm convinced. I need to start making my own. I'm spending a fortune in time, shipping and work around for eyes that cost more, aren't what I really want, but I cannot get or cannot get any more. I always save one blank or if left and right eye is different, a pair. Can't wait to learn about the mech
Just a little tip for free hand silicone brushing like the teeth on your extra, first brush the teeth lightly, then with a cotton ball rolled open, so it's thin. Cut a piece of cotton slightly larger than your brushed area, Soak up whats left in in the cup with the cotton piece you've prepared and place it onto the area you've brushed. The matting gives more stability without too much silicone leaking off your work piece. Love your tutorial, very clear to understand.
Hey Jack! If after two years you're not planning on make a second part, at least change the name of it to "making mold of balls", as it was 20 minutes of wasted time. Your mechanisme looks dope, dough.
Bethany Templin it’s coming soon! I’ve had a couple other videos related to my marionette building class coming first but Part two is on the docket next. Then I’ll be following up with the other seven parts in short order.
If you're looking into making silicone molds take a look at some of the videos here that utilize legos to build the frames rather than hot gluing styrene. Like this one but you can find others: th-cam.com/video/ommb5JaVa_0/w-d-xo.html
I love the video. I saw another video about making eyes, but it would only let the eyes move. It wouldn’t let them blink though, but this one can do both. I’ll make sure to try this When I’m making a puppet.
I'm looking forward to the rest if the tutorial, this is the first tutorial that looks exactly what I need to do for my project I just didn't know where to start. When will there be a next part 2 this series?
Here’s a link. I usually get 5/16” in a 5lb box. For my purposes I always use black brown or white but you can see a wide variety of colors. These are still low temp though, so any project you’re doing that needs to survive above 145°f will likely fall apart. I avoid building enclosed mascot heads from zote that I expect will be out in the sun, or left in a hot car. For most other zote projects, this is the BEST glue there is! glu-stix-online.com/collections/glue-sticks/products/colored-hot-melt-glue-sticks?variant=7854515290165
I’m starting a puppet project and this really helped me. I’m trying to build chamberlain from Jim Henson’s “The Dark Crystal” and I’m coming into some problems. Any tips on realism in the eyes of a puppet?
Yes, I’ll be talking about that in the next video in this series, but I cover a bit of it in this one. The most important thing is that the center of the pupil be deep and dark. Having the iris be concaved, and highly detailed it also helpful. Lots of color variation and layering of the paint makes it appear real. And, finally, a very glossy surface to the final eye is critical.
I’m glad it was helpful to you! Someday I’ll finish editing the other parts! I’ve been so busy and I’m such a slow editor but at least I have the mold making part explained.
Keep watching the series! Your question will be answered later on! This series will be about 9 parts and I believe I will get to the eye-tracking mech in part 5 or 6.
I feel the same way about the environment. I’m literally making plastic lol. It’s hard to do stop motion and be an environmentalist.I never met anyone who said the exact thoughts in my head lol. So I subscribe to you 🖤
Last June I fell and broke my leg and I’ve been recovering ever since. I get out of the rehabilitation facility in about two weeks and maybe I can begin working in my shop again. If you’re not in a huge hurry, feel free to contact me through my website www.geahk.art
John Koester, no, I hadn’t considered it. I did take apart dolls as a kid as was floored when I discovered a tiny plastic record player inside. That has always stuck with me and it might be interesting to build a miniature brass record player at some point as an experiment.
Unfortunately, the external hard drive where I kept the footage for the rest of this series, failed. At the time it was simply a frustration and I only had a few hundred subscribers, so I didn’t deal with trying to recover the footage. Since then, this video has blown up. It’s clear people want me to finish this series. I get contacted almost daily. So, I will finish it, or remake the series from scratch.
This is a REALLY good idea for a future video. There is an easy way to do this. I build built blinking eyes for Disney’s Finding Nemo which are like that. The way I solved it was to use an extension-spring from one eye to the other and then driving the center of the spring. The two eyes would then follow. Hard to explain in a comment but I will do a future video!
Yes, they were made for a vent figure. I want to make a second part to this video but the hard drive the footage is on was corrupted. I’ve sent the hard drive to a recovery company.
Oto Kun yeah, Paypal works. If you’re interested, feel free to email me through my website: www.geahkburchilldesigns.com we can talk further by email or set up a call.

Geahk Burchill try looking him up i’m going to make him those type of eyes but without using any rods Or something they’re just going to be able to move with either your fingers or your hand when their put into the head Try searching Google you don’t have to if you don’t want to
John Koester Oh, I see. From FNAF. I just didn’t know the character’s name. (Never played FNAF) there are very simple ways of making moving eyes that ventriloquist dummies use. I recommend finding vent pages on Facebook. Lots of people post looks inside their dummy’s heads.

I was thinking "this better not be another 3D printed video"
And I saw the rig. Looks awesome
Geahk is Back! I would love to see your methods of storing and keeping track of where everything is when you aren't using it.
I'm currently building my own puppet rig. I'd love to see a Part 2 as you have the nicest rig I've seen.
Seriously loved that intro

I love this. Thanks for share.
Could you please try to make a spring loaded blinking mech for a soft hand puppet next?
Thank😮
What is the brand of hot glue stick you use? I usually avoid hot glue like the plague, but I use zote foam and it sounds interesting.

Aw poodoo. No more videos have been posted
You said ppl hire you how much you sell these eyes for?
They take a lot of work. This set I sold for $300 USD, but I think, now that I’ve made some molds, I could do it faster for a little less expensive.

Do you ever worry that while making your eyes Rutger Haur might burst in and question you about Tyrell Corporation?
A big wet smootch before he pushes my eyes into their sockets? Maybe that’s why I haven’t uploaded part 2.
