Help me with my kit, please!
Permalink   

I've recently bought two beautiful kits - Daphne and Chrissy by Elly Knoops. But I am so afraid to spoile them by making myself!

Who can help me with these kits? I am waiting them from UK, also the bodies, chocolate brown secrist eyes and moher. I can send them to you by post. I need painting, rooting and filling for them both. I don't mean any time - so you have so much time, how you need to make them looking real.

So, I send 2 kits, 2 bodies, eyes for two of them and moher. I don't need any clothes. I can send money via Pay Pal to you, if you send me an invoice. But I should know, how much does it cost (for one doll, please, and will pay twice more) - to paint, insert the eyes, to root hair, to full the body and limbs and to complete all the baby. I send kits and when they arrive to you, I send money for the work.

After the babies are finished, I send money for the shipping them to me.

I don't know if anybody agrees to make them for me. If not, I will try myself. BUT I AM AFRAID!!!

We we all a little afraid at first =) If you are truly sold on having someone reborn them for you My suggestion would be to look around at some the the different artists completed reborns (since we all have our own styles ;) ) and see which ones you like then contact the artist and go from there.

Tina is right. You can check out how some artists do their babies. Some are great at painting, not good at rooting. Some have great rooting but not so good at painting. Some are great at all of it.
Also, some like their babies a little more red (blushed) than I do and some even have little brown spots in their blushing on the babies (which I don't care for either). Hmmmm, does that make me a doll snob? hahaha just kidding.

I would be willing to discuss this with you in a pm and we can discuss prices too. How about if someone paints, roots, and puts in the eyes for you and then just sends you the kit with no stuffing? There's nothing to be scared about in stuffing, you can't hurt them by stuffing. I know what you mean about scared painting though. And then it won't cost you so much to have someone ship if you do the stuffing. :)

You can pm me the information and I can go online and see what other artists made those doll kits look like so I can get an idea of how YOU like your babies.

Valentina, Pat and Tina are right about all the different artists available.  There are also some websites for reborning artist groups with links to the websites of each of the members.  Some excellent artists are located in Europe, and I think that would make the shipping more affordable for you.  If you need more information about the artist groups, just PM me and I will send some links.
