Saw this picture and immediately fell in love with this kit! I’d really like to get eyes like this for the kit as well. Any ideas on where I could get a pair of eyes like these and what size they should be?
Edit to add this is Kelly Dudley’s prototype of Mayven Alleluia

Does she have a page where we can purchase? Those are amazing eyes. It was this pic that convinced me to order this kit, and I too want the eyes to looke like this. She reminds me of my son when he was about a month old.

It’s the small pupils that make these eyes different. They’re super realistic.

Yeah, never realized that smaller pupils could looks so realistic. They make her look so much more focused and real.

Those are Carola Carolls eyes. They are a bit pricy but very nice and each pair comes with a COA

Any idea what color Mayven’s eyes are in the photo? Blue-gray maybe?

I see that the suggested eyes sizes are 18-20mm. Anyone else who got her, what size do you think may look best? Maybe it depends on how newborn one wishes her to look?

It looks like Carola is no longer selling on Etsy. Anyone know if she is selling somewhere else or where I can find similar eyes with the small pupils?

Looks like she’s out of the eyes again. Drats. I missed them. I hope she has more soon. They d look amazing in Mayven.
I wonder if she takes orders.

I wrote to ask. Will see what she says.
She used to. But she may be swamped with customs now. I ordered several pair from her a few years ago. I wasn’t specific. I just mentioned sizes and asked for a variety of colors. Then she and I worked a trade. I did two custom werepups for her in trade for a bunch of eyes for one and money for the other. She’s great to work with. Facebook messenger is annoying because of the language difference. But if you click her message bubbles it will give you an option to translate it easily.

FOr some reason my FB Messenger won’t translate for me. I’ve been translating her messages in Google Translate and then writing my answers back to her through that into Italian. She says she has some eyes to show me, but she is really busy right now. So, I’m patient since I won’t be painting my Mayvens for a little while. Her eyes are just so realistic and amazing.
