Hello, I would like to make some goggles exactly like this. Most of them are displayed in a plastic case, so I can't really get a good look at what I want to buy. I don't have time or money to buy and test out a bunch of different goggles.
Could I please know what exact pair of goggles you bought ASAP?
Otherwise I'm not sure how I'll pull off my cosplay before the end of the month. 

Thank you for reading!

It's just a cheap pair of $2 swimming goggles from a discount store.

Fantastic tutorial! these look awesome. I want to try this idea out with some more conventional lens types too. I will try to keep you posted since this is where I got the idea from in the first place. I mainly do Nerf and Nintendo zapper conversions so it will be a little different for me.

I didn't think about it at first too, until I went for a swim. I've discovered that a lot of props can be crafted from everyday products lying around the house. XD

Nice and simple! go to favs
just a question : With what do you paint the glasees? (The red part)

Excuse my bad english, i speak spanish xD

Crimson-Shirou In reply to TheBeastOfHearts [2012-04-21 02:49:47 +0000 UTC]

You paint the red part using transparent glass paint. You can just use a brush to apply the colors on.
