At this point, I hit the back of the plug with a quick shot of paint. Use the same color as you did under the flex cord. In this case, I used pearl purple. You only need to shoot a thin line down the back. I also add a shot of red under the chin. Once this is dry, add the eyes to the plug. You’ll need to epoxy these in place and hold tight while the epoxy sets. The 5 minute Devcon works well for this. Once the eyes have set, take a pair of scissors or a sharp knife and carefully cut the flex cord from around the front hook hole. Apply a little epoxy, then insert the grommet.
