I made this prop to comfort my daughter after discovering the fate of Mad Eye Moody in the Harry Potter movie franchise. It is a super quick and simple model to build. I decided to take mine a bit further however. I added a small arduino control board (Arduino Pro Mini 328) and tiny servo motor. It is powered by a rechargeable lithium battery. I also added a small light to make the pupil glow when turned on. The eye moves at random in all directions and is pretty fun to build, finish and wear around. To make the pupil I decided to not make it. I went to the hobby store where to my surprise they sell doll eyes. I found a blue set and popped it in. (I have so many extra pupils in my shop.. First time I have ever written that sentence..) For the rest it was a matter of spray paint and rub in buff. You will need to add two small aluminum rods and either thread them as I did or glue them into the model. Attach a leather strap and your done. Below is a link to a video of mine. https://photos.app.goo.gl/G0YYrjr7Nb1LOvve2 Jolly Making!
