It might be your camera but he looks a tad urmm blue. And are you using Ping pong balls? As i found them to be a little large when comparing them with the real Kermit.

I got some really cheap 35mm dome eyes from this site:

The owner was really helpful, fast delivery and i can recommend it if your living in the UK.

Your getting there though fella! Keep it up.
