What do you guys think about getting someone to fix the eyes or should i leave them as is? Will this hurt the value?

Oh and sorry about the crappy pictures it was dark when i got home.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

I think it really depends on how bad your eyes are. I tend to think leaving pieces as they were produced is better but again if your eyes are really bad then it may be a good idea. I got luck as my eyes had no problem.

Tough questions to answer. Should you get someone to fix the eyes? If the eyes keep you from enjoying the piece, then I say go for it. Give it a few days though; maybe you're not as bothered as you think.

Will it hurt the value? Depends on the buyer, I suppose. And the quality of work done. Before and after pics might be helpful in that scenario.

Thanks for the advice guys. It wouldn't be something I'd do right away if I decided to but like you said gomur I'll giveit a bit. The guy I would get to do this is an amazing artist. He paints, airbrushes, designs signs and a bunch of other things as a business. Though I don't know if he has worked statues or something so intricate. Anyway thanks again.

*Update*
So the eyes don't bug me nearly as much now (thanks gomur). and I have installed new lighting in my display cabinet so I decided I'd post a couple better pictures of her. Too bad the lighting shows the dust better too lol.
