I only have eyes for you, and you, and you... (x-posted)

From the very beginning when I was putting Klar together as a character and as a doll, I decided to let him figure out how he wanted to be put together. Aside from his name, the only idea I wanted to force on him was "bright, glowy blue eyes". The Eyeco pair I had with his vinyl were lovely, but they only really glow when flash is used.
I read somewhere that urethane eyes are the best when it comes to looking glowy, so I grabbed the first blue pair I could find for Klar's resin form.
The seller never told me what brand it was, but I figure it's either Everpurple or Enchanted Doll. The eyes looked lovely on Klar, but they weren't quite as bright as I had envisioned.
So hunting around some more, I found these Dollshe urethanes. When they arrived and I popped them into his head, I realized... it gave him this piercing glare.
And depending on the angle I look at him, he tends to look devious. And a little scary, too.
Klar: I could kill you in your sleep. When? Well... let's just say it could be now, or it could be eventually.
So, back to the original urethane eyes he started with, I guess. XD
Klar: Hmmm? What's that? You want a strip tease? I suppose so, but I'm really not in the mood.
