Just started a new hobby: reborning babydolls.
It is also painting but instead on canvas or paper you paint on vinyl. You buy the vinyl limbs and head en paint on the surface so you will achieve a real looking skin.
Just like with fine artpainting you bring on many, many transparant layers of a special acrylpaint. What I like about this new adventure is that I have to learn a lot of new techniques. I only work with 3 primary colors: red, blue and yellow. For the creases I add some umber to the paint mix and i use some white for the nails. That's it.
I use Ultimate Fusion paint.
Indeed a challenge. Furthermore with the finest mohair en micro feltingneedles I am going to insert hair by hair to give the head a real babylook. This doll has such a beautiful skul that I leave hem bold. But the second one will get hair.
I also love to knit, crochet and sew babyclothes. So this new hobby is so divers.
This doll is the first one I made.
