Best of luck, Emily! Nighty Nite looks like a terrific baby to start with, and it will be a lot of fun to see how she/he turns out. I'll be looking forward to seeing your baby's picture in the Artist Showcase!

Hello Emily, It is nice to welcome you to the family of reborning, Yes there are a very supportive group of ladies that once you have been on the forum for a while you will get to know them by their work.and personal comments, some write in shorthand and if your like me you have to ask what they mean. Like LOL is laughing out loud, because something yousaid was funny to them. once again welcome. weirdface

Hi Emily... i love your name, i'm always thought emily is such a pretty name - i've already used it on one of my babies that has been adopted now.

welcome to the forum, i love seeing new member join and introduce theirselves. I've not done "Nighty Night" but she does look like a beautiful baby and i look forward to you sharing your pictures of her. Remember no one starts out perfectly, so dont get discouraged if your baby isn't perfect... the best advice i could give a newbie is to be in the moment and enjoy the magic of creating... it takes practise and the mastering of skills and techniques, and over time you'll find your own personal style and way of doing things.

i must warn you though, reborning becomes very adictive very quickly LOL ... welcome to the gang.

Hello Emily, this isn't only to wel come you with warm wishes but to also remind Naomi, that she could teach. Remembering.... no one starts out perfectly, and I should know. I'm still building up corouge to get the Genesis paints out, after making dolls for over 20 yrs.. weirdface

Thanks. I'll be sure to post pictures in the Artist Showcase when I have something to finally show. It sure seems slow going right now.

I did read Naomi's topic on teaching. I think as a newbie, I wouldn't expect to be taught a precise method. I think I would really want to learn the basics from someone with artistic talent like Naomi. Just an intro into color theory, what tools are needed and how to use them, and basics of mottled or peaches and cream skin tones. Even watching a professional do their work would be really insightful. I'm sure she is doing a great job.
