I use JB Weld Quick for gluing my eyes in, but I use resin. Not sure what you could use for the material you are using. Might want to ask the manufacturer or supplier as to what they would recommend.
Are the eyes you found at Joann's full spheres or just the front? I want to make an animatronic Baby Yoda at some point but I need his eyes to be mostly in a sphere form, not just a front bit with the back completely cut out
it is just the front. They are not spheres.
For the eyes on mine I ended up buying 20mm animal eyes from Joannes Fabric. I did have to use a small amount of apoxy putty at the edges of the eye to get rid of the small gap. These ended up looking much more the part than the painted eyes. I still include the resin eyes with my kit incase you want to try painting them. As far as the color goes I started with Krylon Pistachio as the base Coat. Then I just use those cheap craft paints from Walmart. I do a lot of mixing though to get the color I want. The paint is called Craft Smart and the green I use is Lush Foliage, but it’s mixed with a lot of white to get the right shade i like. It’s pretty light but gets darker when I start to do washes to bring out the details.
