Clear material for figure glasses?
Clear material for figure glasses?
Posted in
Custom WorkstationI'm looking for some sort of material I can use to make accessories that are similar to glasses. I already have a mold of the accessory to make copies of the piece, and I have a few methods for making the clear portion (small, dremeled chunks of 3D glasses lens and pieces from transparent laundry soap cups), but I'd like to know if there's any other material out there that I can use to make the lens as it's a bit difficult carving the material I've been using. Can anyone think of anything that might help? The material needs to be colored either red, green, or blue. It also needs to somewhat thick so it can hold better when glued onto the accessory.
Please wait...

I would try that but I'm afraid those lego parts would be almost too thick and hard to work with.
I think I'm settling on recoloring pieces from a blister pack. Now the question is...where I can find fairly thick blister pack material? I think the packages from the Toybiz ML line would work but I can't remember how thick the plastic was on those. I've tried blister packs from the new ML line and a Star Wars VC blister pack but both were far too thin.
