Painting on eyes is a pain in the ass but looks nice, I use plastic eyes, glass eyes, have some vintage German glass eyes like Creek Chub used. I use holographic eyes as well. I do have a rule of thunmb for eyes when I am making a plug I will fish myself and that is plugs that travel below the surface get eyes and plugs that stay on or just out of the surface of the water don't get any.
Needlefish always should have eyes, sometimes big ones work better on them than small ones and always highlight them.
