Wow, this was seven years ago. I am new to this hobby. I purchased a couple of dolls that I had been admiring so I could have something to use as examples to give myself some kind a guide for when I buy some kits to try my hand at painting. I've watched two or three other videos, but I definitely learned more about color details from this video. Thank you.

I got my Nu-Wave oven, and used it yesterday. I put a layer of acrylic paint flesh color, diluted with a lot of distilled water, using a LOT of my air dry varnish. (More than I usually use of the varnish). It came out great. The next 2 layers of paint went on very nicely, leaving a nice "matte" finish. I plan on using the oven again on the very last coat of thin paint with lots of air dry varnish (Plaid glass & tile medium). I like the way the finish is (very matte) so far.

Thank you so much for this video. I have wanted for a long time to reborn with my granddaughter. I am disabled on S.S. and a very limited budget. I was thrilled to see I could use the acrylic paints. It may take me months to afford even the discounted kits from Bountiful Baby, but I am working on an Ashton Drake doll she had. Taking her glued on hair off was the hardest part! I need to get her a new body, since this one is weighted down with sand. So I need to get a new body and glass beads etc for this one before I can even think about purchasing a kit. When I priced everything I would need going with the Genesis heat set, my husband rolled his eyes. Since my medications and things cost so much, I can afford this way a little better without hurting our family budget. So it was a very helpful video. I will be referencing it in the future. My plan is to work on the Ashton Drake and each month perhaps, purchase paints, brushes, etc. This is not a sob story, just an explanation as to why I may be asking more questions in the future. You a so very sweet and patient. God bless you, Michele

Theres no reason to switch from sand to glass beads.. it's just a way for reborn artists to drive up the price plus glass beads can crack causing glass dust, not healthy to breath in..white, sterilized playsand is just glass before its melted anyway lol .

@@buckiannscreations9089 if sand gets wet, mold and bacteria will form and destroy your dolls. Glass beads in pantyhose tied off and inserted will weigh your baby, with poly fill to block the limbs entrance. All limbs/head needs weight to imitate a real baby. Artists get touchy about others using sand, marbles, metal pellets, or other similar items that would damage and show or feel when holding them. There’s no set standard for reborning supplies at the moment. You can get glass beads and poly Phil on Amazon, in bulk and cheaper than you may think. It’s taken me a year to buy everything monthly to start reborning, including kits on sale and reborn painting needs because I’m on a fixed SSDI budget. I splurged on a better kit or bulk items if it’s on sale to afford them. Once you start making $$$$ from selling them, you can buy a better item like acrylic versus glass eyes, which aren’t that much more in cost IF you want, or to make your dolls look more authentic to collect or sell. I bought glass eyes for my two 28” kits in case I sell them. . You need to know if you like this artistry before going further in price and material costs. I paint Crafts so these Apple barrel paints/brushes are already in my paint area. It overlaps into other painting projects I love to do. If I don’t like apple barrel to do reborns, , then they will be used for other painting, and my Arteza brand will be used instead, after my reborn air dry starter paints are finished up. Nothing will go to waste, but this hobby is very pricey to start and maintain supplies. I saw a video about using Apple Barrel and Folk Art to paint, then I realized they could work more professionally instead of using super expensive, reborn paints to start.

Newborn veins are different than my 63 yr old veins. Haha. I'm glina start the creasing. I'm going to send you a photo when it's done. It's going to be bald unless I try to paint or pencil hair. Going to root eyelashes. I have an art background so I'm comfortable with a lot of the aspects. I thought snout buying cheap women's false eyelashes and root and trim down. Whats your thought on that? You so very helpful to me and I appreciate it so much!!! Thank you p.s. I also to needle felting with wool would this needles work on hair routing?

I'm expecting an ashton drake newborn doll to be here any day now and I'm thinking about eventually giving it a realistic makeover. I've never done this before and I never bought anything like these before. Not sure why I wanted one all of a sudden, I think because I'm getting sad about the future (I want more children and I dont see it happening...I'm 31). So I thought doing this would make me feel a little bit happier? Anyways, I've been watching videos lately and I came across someone turning their ashton drake doll into a reborn? So I wanna do that when I get all my other projects finished. Glad you mentioned that the genesis paint gave a chemical smell, I really don't want that smell. Happy to know it can be done with acrylic paint. I also plan on using human hair extensions to use as the rooting hair and eyelashes

I was reading up on acrylic and all I have seen is people saying you have to get special acrylic paint yada yada yada . This will save me a ton of money ! Do you put anything on the doll before you begin painting ?

I don't seal my vinyl first. I use many thin layers of paint, just like with Genesis Heat Set Paints. You have to mix the acrylics with distilled water and Plaid Folk Art Glass & Tile Medium (this helps the paint stick to the vinyl). I use about 1 tsp. in each batch of paint. My last coat is Genesis Thinning Medium applied with a cosmetic wedge that I rip the top off (to make it rough and give texture). I bake this layer in my Nu-Wave oven at power level 6 (250 degrees F) for 9 minutes. Hope this helps. Sharon

Is this any kind of craft acrylic paint that you use and then mix with distilled water and the glass and tile medium to make it stick to the viny? Or is it a specific type of acrylic paint used for reborning?

It is not specific to reborning. I just happen to like Folk Art matte acrylics the best.

Excuse my ignorance. What other brands besides FolkArt carry the glass medium? Or what other names does it have? I ask because currently it is sold out and the company (Plaid) isn't shipping either. Thank you so much! Greetings from Mexico!

Folk Art Outdoor Sealer Matte is also good. Other than that, I would only recommend Genesis Thinning medium and Genesis Matte Varnish but you would need to bake that layer at the end in a Nu-Wave oven - let the vinyl cool and re-bake. You can use the heat set products with acrylic paints. I have done that many times with success.

What are the best undertone colors to use under the eyes.
@lifewithsharonb5138

Black cherry red, blue, and a little purple. I end up using a final coat of red in the creases under the eye, sometimes a brick red, and sometimes a cherry red depending on the overall color of the baby.

You don't need an oven if you are using acrylics. If you seal the baby with Folk Art glass & tile medium at the end, that will serve as the sealer and matte coat. I particularly like using Genesis Matte Varnish mixed with Genesis Thinning Medium and baking it in my Nu-Wave oven, but you don't need to do this if you seal with the glass & tile medium. Hope this helps. Sharon

Folk Art Outdoor Sealer is just as good. Plus it's a bigger bottle.

Do you paint the skin tone first? And after you paint a layer do you bake it in and then bake in every layer after that? Or do you wait until you're all done with painting and then bake it all in. Please get back to me about info as soon as you can thank you.

I only bake the last layer when I use Genesis Thinning Medium as a seal coat that gives a nice matte finish. I put the medium directly onto a cosmetic wedge and pounce it all over the vinyl. I let it set for an hour and then I bake it in my Nu-Wave oven at 250 deg. for 9 minutes. I repeat the process once the vinyl has cooled. Hope this helps! Sharon

tfs do you vein and crease after the flesh tone? how many layers of flesh tone layers do you do? and do you blush after flesh tone? thank you
@lifewithsharonb5138
6 жыл бұрын
Yes, I do all those things after flesh tone. I add as many layers of flesh tone mixed with various other colors as needed. I use watery washes if the color is too orange or too blue (using the opposite color on the color wheel). I add layers after the mottling, veining, creasing and shading too. I try to achieve a translucent skin tone with lots of undertones for realism. I like the hands and feet to be a "warm" color like the lips. I study human flesh a lot, to see where the blues, purples, yellows, greens, browns, and other colors are! Hope this helps. Sharon
