FOR MORE OF MY ART, PLEASE VISIT MY WEB SITE AT WWW. NCRUZ.COM . Link below:[link]
I used a 16-inch Robert Tonner doll here. I completely removed factory facial painting and hand painted it to look like Natalie Portman as Padme in Revenge of the Sith. Repaint is a new form of pop art, wherein the doll's face is treated like a three dimensional canvas, with the added challenge of painting within a very small area . Since dolls are basically miniature pieces, brush strokes and shading have to be very controlled and precise.
-- acrylic paint and ultra fine brushes
(Note: I am not in any way affiliated with the Tonner Doll company)

This is incredible. Does removing the original paint allow you to completely re-sculpt the doll's features? I thought you would also have to deal with plastic facial features.

To some extent you can also re-sculpt the doll's features by sanding. Most of it is done by careful and superb shading.
