SIZE GUIDE FOR ADULT DOLLS EYES
If you are making dolls to the correct scale, then use these proportioned measurements. Fairy sizings are different, and are at the bottom Here is a good link for an all species eyes size chart
size chart
a 6 foot human has a 12-13mm iris Therefore:
3 foot doll; 6mm iris
18 inch doll ;3mm iris
12 inch doll ;2mm iris (12" barbies have just over 2mm irises!)
9 inch doll ; 1.5mm iris
6 inch doll (12th scale); 1mm iris
4.5"; .75mm iris
BUT
People usually prefer to use larger than life eyes for polymer fairies -you may not have even noticed this! It's all a matter of your particular taste and style Choosing a size a little over scale will give your fairy an appealing child like quality but
the more you increase the eye size, the more cartoon like the sculpture becomes Here are my personal size recommendations for ADULT fairy eyes
12 inch fairy ;2.5 -3mm iris
9 inch fairy ; 2 -2.5mm iris
6 inch fairy ; 1.5 -2mm iris
4.5 inch fairy; 1 -1.2mm iris
CHILDREN AND BABIES
Babies eyes are only a little smaller than our own! They are fully grown by the time they are young children
When making realistic babies eyes, you should sculpt the eyes so that very little of the whites are showing
For simplicity, the following paragraph refers to 6inch fairies and her children
If you are making a baby, 1" or smaller(measured in foetal position), use.8 to 1.5mm irises. You could use this size of eyes for a young 3" fairy child For older children and teenagers you can use the same size as the mothers eyes (1.5 -2mm)

.5 -1mm +£1.40p per pair (Please note that due to the the absence of any fairy helpers, there is no darker outer iris colouring on irises 1.1mm and smaller -only one iris colour and pupil) IMPORTANT NOTES FOR SMALL EYES 1-2mm and smaller . I reccommend that only light coloured eyes are ordered for eyes, to the naked eye, all the darker colours look like little dots, and even under a magnifier you can barely see the difference between cornflower and bluebell -its best to use the brighter tones as they greyer ones will look dark . For brown eyes I use honey colour paint, this has the result of dark brown eyes on such a tiny scale, so if you really do want me to use walnut paint you will have to specify this. Dont worry too much, I will email you about this before I start work on your eyes. We both want to be sure about these important details. NOTES FOR ALL SIZES Another thing we can discuss before I start is if you want a varied sizing. For example, if you dont actually need all the pairs to be the exact same size as each other. My measuring is pretty precise to about .1mm but if you are happy for me to work to a looser specification of .2 to .3mm, your order will be quicker and you get a slight variation to choose from if you make your dolls in different sizes.
