This is Chi-Chi, the only asian baby i've done. He was birthed from a Euro-berenguer, there are lots of things i'd like to change or improve on this baby, namely the eyebrows which i hand rooted but they were way to stark with the depth of the black on the skin colouring, i think if i'd painted the eyebrows he would have looked better - his mummy loves him though and thinks he looks so real, she is the mother of 3 bi-racial boys though and he looked remarkably like her youngest son just by chance (he wasn't a custom order).
-- He's not one of my favourite creations, i see so many things wrong with him now

this one wasn't meant to be an asian baby by sculpt, but i thought he looked like he had potential and except for the eyebrows i think he came out ok.... like i said not one of my prouder works but i did him quite a while ago and have changed alot of how i work now - developed my own techniques and such.
Good Evening Namoi, I love the little one in the 5th pic, he looks great, Maybe if you pluck a few hairs out of his eyebrows, he may not look quite as stark. I know it's a bit of a bother but you could also paint a few lighter ones in amongst them.(((HUGS)))June M from Oz. KATE is a Beautifull baby.
June, he's long sold and lives with his new mummy in Canada. I did him a long time ago but thought i'd post his pics as an example of an Asian baby for Sondra as she's posted asking about asian skin tones.
Its great to have pictures to look back on and see how far we have come as artists. I was going through some photographs yesterday with a friend.. And I came to a realisation of how much I have actually improved over the years.
But alike yourself, I also have a dolly (which sold) in my memory that I will always miss. She had such great appeal to me. Even though I made her in the earlier days of myself entering the art, and that she is far from perfect. I still love her.
