Adopted...Ready for Adoption! Levi by Bonnie Brown



Bonnie Brown sculpts are probably my favorite to reborn because they are so realistic.  I have had the Levi kit in my possession for a while and knew I wanted to do something different with him.


I had it in mind to make a Hispanic skintone and knew it would be a challenge, but I was totally up for it.



I think the hardest part of painting darker skintones is the shading.  Without it, even with mottling layers can look monotone.  So I really studied pictures of Hispanic newborns online and applied thin layer after thin layer to create the undertones and shading needed to bring this little guy to life!




Once I had the skintone right, it was time to tackle the hairline and brows.  





Phew!  The painting was done, I added matte to protect all that had been painted and reduce shine...now onto rooting and blending!









Isn't he precious?!
