RJ,

Great stuff.  Your blog looks like a very good read.  I really like your technique for doing glasses.

Umm... am I missing something here? :? I don't see any examples of goggles. Those are entirely different than glasses. Anyone have any examples? Say modern forces, SWAT, etc?

That's a great technique RJ but when I try it, it always looks like shit  :'( Thanks for the close up Alex, maybe I'll give it another try 8)

Would dropping a blob of gloss clear work for a lens?

It would add to the overall effect. I usually do so, but gloss alone would not be as good as a jewel painted version.
