[Dreamer]

So I bought another baity fakie for a custom. But she's got those glass doll eyes and she's ALWAYS

"So you want to split up my family, cut my precious mane and take my eyes and head off? No"

Worst of all, she sometimes reminds me of...

I need to take her eyes off to work on my custom, but I know she won't like it
This might sound really silly, but how can I "convince" her to become a custom? Time ago I read here on the Arena a case similar to mine, where someone's pony had something "off". Could you help me, please?

Knock her out with a bath of steaming warm water, fresh rosemary, and clove oil. Then do her eyes!

You will require the services of an exorcist who is experienced in dealing with possessed toys, clearly! Failing that, you could always try sticking googly eyes over the regular creepy eyes as a temporary measure.

I've just burst into a spontaneous fit of giggles!

Googly eyes, I bet she would love to have those...

Well, I know this is silly, but you could show her customs you've done in the past, especially before and after shots to show her she'll look way better after a makeover.

Mwhahaha Five Nights in Fakieland

With Princess Rinse n' Spit as Freddy 

By the way, I brought myself to check inside her head and her eyes are covered by the same plastic as the pony, so I don't know how to remove them... am I explaining well? There's no way I can take them off from the inside.

Probably be like the Twinkle-Eyed ponies that you have to slice open the plastic behind the eye- might be a bit of a production.

No no, Princess RnS would be Chica, its those teeth. A BBE would have to be Bonnie. I like the idea of showing her your lovely customs. Good advice....or you could just leave her as is so she doesn't come after you in the middle of the night

I think you'd probably get them out like BBE ponies' eyes. I find, whether I'm going to Apoxie in to make a flat surface or place a bead for TEs, leaving the backing in is optimal. So, like a maniac, I go in from the front and pop them out with an awl/ice pick from a corner of the eye. If they're creeping me out too much I will paint over the eyes first in something blatantly not realistic or in black. So I can pretend that they can't see me... 

[Mirnyj]

I think painting over the eyes sounds like a good idea. In the possessed ponies thread someone told to wash the pony under running water. But I'm afraid ashing won't help with the stare.. 

[Iris Patch]

...there is such a thread?  I need to find this.

[Mirnyj]

Yes there is! Can't remember the title of it tho.
