OFF WITH HIS HEAD - 1025F
Head is vanilla pound cake, covered w/ BC icing, fondant and hand made modeling chocolate. I hand rolled the eyeballs from Isomalt. Used my fondant tools to carve in all the details and airbrushed the coloring/shading. Piping gel & red coloring gel made for some grooooosome blood. I hand sculpted the hand from modeling chocolate and also airbrushed it to finish it off.

Yes, thats exactly what I did...I worked the clear Isomalt with my mat until It was cooled enough to pick up and roll into a ball. Then I colored what was left and poured out a small dot size for the colored part of the eye and then placed the clear eye on top of the warm, colored dot and smoothed down the edges. I don't have a sphere mold, so had to do this all by hand and it turned out pretty good for a dead guy. I had planned on making them lighter, but I colored the isomalt too dark and just went with it. I did hand brush some white on the eyes though before I brushed them with the confectioners glaze. Yeah, I think they would have looked much better if they were lighter, so you're on the right track. :o)

You said you hand rolled the eyeballs. Do you mean that as they cooled enough to handle, you rolled them? That sounds like a great idea. I was thinking of putting a little white in mine. He's supposed to be a zombie coming out of a grave. What do you think?
