Sonic's eyes

Been wondering what kind of texture to use for the sword's eyes. Turns out that the answer was right in front of me.

Last month on the 30th was my 21st birthday and a friend of mine gave me a Sonic bobble head as a present.
He now sits at my desk and whenever I get stressed or bored, I just tap Sonic's head. Funny enough, Sonic has recently celebrated his birthday too with Sonic Generations which revisits past levels throughout the 20 years of Sonic.

Anyway, I've decided to use bits of the Sonic bobble head to use as the sword eye's textures. The eyeballs were taken from Sonic's own white eyeball. As you can guess next, the pupils were taken from Sonic's black pupils. But what about the eyelids? They were actually taken from Sonic's mouth. Here is the result:
They look quite natural for eyes and I believe the sword is fully textured. Animating the scene and adding environments shall be the next step.
