gettin pretty hacked off at the lack of eye opening and closing for SimMon, i mean really, PPH scenario we'd really expect to see her fall unconscious or at least very light headed/drowsy but her eyes stay wide open.
we've got a couple of ideas for changing this but obviously a little concerned about cutting open, or glueing bits to her face.
so before I start, has anyone tried, or have a working solution, to closing SimMoms eyes?

does anyone have an old face skin from Simmom, perhaps after a servicing? if so i would love to take it off your hands to experiment on

Hi scott we dont use a sim mom here but does the eyes remove from it ?? if so could you not get a spare set of eyes that you dont use and paint them over with the same colour as the skin that way it might give off the idea that her eyes are shut ??

well we have eyes that close, with the discrete tug of the nose.
replaced face skin with SimMan 2G face skin, a few mods to the skull of SimMom and some eyes from an old ECS and there you have it, sadly they don't re-open discretely but for our major obstetric hemorrhage scenario, where mom becomes unconscious, it does the trick

made an insert for abdo, means participants can do an exam without the abdo collapsing around the baby, maybe not great but it's an improvement

Vaguely eye-related: my SimMom's eyelashes are half off and looking very sad. What kind of glue is ok to use to get them back on?
Great thread! I haven't started my training yet, so I'm miles away from modifying a manikin.

I'd suggest Spirit Gum, strong enough to hold them on and easy enough to remove with the spirit gum remover.
glues would likely build up over time with each re-application
