Reborn doll Grace Leigh

Grace was created from the Reva Schick sculpt Maya. She was such a pleasure to reborn with all those fat little wrinkles. I used a peaches and cream complexion with soft blond hair and victorian blue eyes. Grace is dressed and waiting for the Easter Bunny to visit.

I am very pleased with the results. I made her a bit heavy and she cuddles in your arms just like a real baby. I used just a tiny bit of mottling to achieve realism with Grace.

As I start out with a blank reborn doll kit, it is always surprising the twists and turns a baby will take before the personality starts to emerge. Grace has a quiet little expression and is such a sweet baby girl. I enjoyed our journey together.
