My experiment mounting the eyes first inside the head worked great. I wrapped the eyes in cellephane before mounting to protect them from the Magic-Sculpt. Glen Rappold had an excellent idea to use wood balls as stand-ins so as to not ruin the expensive Mike Brose cast eyes, but I wasn't confident the wood balls' irises would properly line up in the eye sockets. However, since the Mike Brose eyes survived the sculpting unscathed, I will now build a set of wood eyes and use this figure's eye sockets to properly place the irises on the wood balls. Then I'll use the wood ball set-up as my stand-ins for the good eyes in my next project.
Next step is to finish sculpting the face. Check back for a progress report!
