I have plenty of soft vinyl kits ready to come to life. If you're interested in my work and would like me to make that special reborn baby for you, feel free to contact me.
TIME:
Please, note that the process of 'reborning' just one baby doll, normally takes up to 4-5 weeks.
PAINTS:
I paint babies with Genesis heat set paints. These are extremely durable paints and will never fade or rub off. The skintones will be very realistic. I do make mottling on all of my babies, but it is up to the customer whether there will be slight, normal or very subtle mottling. I normally use a heat set matte finish after painting the skintones. It gives a pore-like finish and protects the vinyl. If the customer prefers to have the softest possible finish, I will not use the varnish.
HAIR:
The baby will have micro-rooted mohair of the premium quality. You are free to choose which hair color it is going to be: pale blonde, light blonde, dark blonde, light brown, medium brown, dark brown, black or red.
I use the angora goat or alpaca mohair. The needles I use for rooting the hair are the smallest out there. These allow to root only 1-3 hair at a time. The finished head will look so realistic! NOT A SINGLE HAIR-PLUG!
EYES:
Open-eyed babies will have very realistic eyes inserted. Here you are free to choose the color you wish for.
WEIGHING: Your custom baby will be weighed using very fine micro glass beads in the limbs. The body is usually filled with the virgin fiber-fill and soft 'baby fat' granules. I never use cotton cloth bodies on my babies, but the soft doe-suede jointed bodies.
CLOTHES: A custom baby normally comes with a terry-cloth diaper or/and a disposable diaper, baby blanket, a onesie, a layette. All the clothes that come with my babies are new, but with no tags.
NAMING AND SIGNING: All my babies come with a custom certificate of authenticity, signed by me.
PAYMENT: After you've placed an order for a custom baby and all the details of the future reborn have been discussed, I would require a deposit. The remainder of the price for the baby has to be paid according to the turms agreed. Please note, that a deposit is non-refundable!
If you have any questions regarding my work and custom orders, please contact me.
