Also, if you wanted to under-simplify things, you could use some swiss straw to make a lovely head on this one.
It looks like a winner already though. What diameter mono are you using to burn the eyes?

as said, you can play around with the antron, mix and match, darker inside, etc
the main idea is the concept of using the antron as a body, which I thought was really cool.
The mono is weedeater mono, I picked up a couple of diameters, from the park, some about 4 or 5 mm in diameter. makes for really awesome eyes.
This concept was shown to me, by a norwegian friend.
The Swiss straw is also a cool idea, maybe post one that you have tied, and we compare.
