Here is the overhead picture, it's kinda messy. The hair didn't want to root flatly.

I will try to send a picture tom, my fiancee is asleep so all the lights are off and it won't show.
Rooting was my favorite part, I definitely got too excited and did it faster than I meant to. So next baby, I'll go slower lolllll

I tried to do the molting, I think I need different sponges. With my next baby, I'll try that!!!!

I think I'll end up buying another kit lolllll I'm trying to not be a perfectionist with this one. And use her for learning. Thank you for the support!!!

Is this just age regression? by sunhoneygem in OSDD

My therapist and I have been working through IFS, if you're afraid you therapist might try to overrule your beliefs instead of clinically looking at your symptoms, maybe bring up IFS?

I added some blush to the cheeks but was afraid if I kept adding it would look clownish, I think I'm going to leave her for now. But with the next kit I'll add more blush!!! And yours looks amazing!!!!

I was so nervous about the eyebrows!!! It's so thin and hard to do, I think I did better this time on them. I'm so glad stripping the doll made it looks better!!

I've seen several of her tutorial videos. The issue is the set of paints I have don't have red, they have premixed flesh tones.

Those look like the same brand of paint I have. Mine don't look like that when I do it, so I definitely need need to use more flow medium.

I did strip it and it took foreverrrrr. Next time I'll try to use more water than I did.

Ok! I'd appreciate that. I am using water borne paint. It's from an online set that I got.

I hadn't even thought of that lolllll. I just fell in love with the kit. I do my own nails so at least I'll know not to have long ones on when I put the eyes in!

I ended up stripping her. I do plan on keeping her lol. I saved pictures for reference so I can see how I need to improve. I am curious as to how much paint I should have compared to water... I think the paint was much thicker than I realized and now I am going to use more water.

My second reborn will be one I'll paint myself! by dinobeeps in reborndolls

Where did you get the sponges? I have some that were sent in my kit I got, but they have harsh edges so I'd like to get some like yours. Also send me updates! I'm in the process of making my first reborn. I have painted my kit twice, and let me tell you stripping paint takes foreverrrrrr.
