I’ll make you laugh. When Nadia as born, she had a few strands of random long hairs to her shoulder!!! I cut them jokes day 1. I said they don’t count.

Ashley still needs brows, lashes, and hair, but I just got some new lights so that I could take more accurate pictures.

Thanks! I did primary color washes. (I think 3 rounds) And then I finished with several burnt umber washes. I used Golden fluid acrylics and really liked painting with them.

How do you keep your kit from turning orange? My Ana awake turned yellowish orange!

Blue washes should counteract the orangy tones.
With the primary colors? I did have to strip Ashley the first time, but I was using different paints, too. I realized my colors were not thin enough when her coloring got really intense. Also, I just trusted the process and that it would turn out all right. In the middle of the washes, she would look purple, green, or orange. I started and ended with yellow, and I think I skipped a blue wash one time because she was too green. Does that help? I definitely second-guessed myself many times in the middle of the washes, but I made myself finish the 3 colors before assessing what needed to be changed-after I had made the paints thinner. (The first time when I had to strip her, I just kept going with the washes, but it didn’t help because the coloring got too dark too quick since the paints were not thin enough.)

This makes a lot of sense and is a big help! I gave up on the primary method but learned that my paint was too thick. I’m really excited and will post pics once I start a new baby.

I was doing the primary method on a kit. Someone in a fib group told me to try blue n red washes. I will do that once I finish with the kits I’m working on.
