kCherry, Your doll is so sweet! I love her face and her wrinkly feet! I'm very impressed that you reborned her. Am I using that term correctly? I still know almost nothing!I actually had an old image of the Babyclon Avatar baby sitting on my computer and, as I was purging some stuff, I found it and just fell in love all over again. When I looked at the price of that doll, I almost fainted! Was so very disappointed but I started looking for alternatives. Stumbled upon the Ivita Avatar baby which is a fraction of the price! I did NOT know, however, that Ivita dolls are a big "no-no" in the collecting community because they are mass produced and some people say the sculpts are stolen. Well, I certainly didn't mean any harm! It was just a silicon doll that I liked and could afford! I certainly wasn't going to spend several thousand dollars on a hobby I'm not even sure I'll like! But, as you say, the doll community is not as forgiving as the pony community so literally no one will talk about mass produced AFFORDABLE dolls.I hope this fall when my kids go back to school, to try my hand at painting her to give her more depth (assuming you can paint over silicone! I can't even really get a clear idea on that!). She also needs rooted eyebrows and lashes. She has nylon hair just like ponies so I think I might change that. I like the hair on your baby. Looks much more natural!If it goes well, I might splurge and get the boy and have twins! I've seen some werewolves (now that I've been poking around) and some other really AMAZING stuff. People are so talented! I'm envious.visitors can't see pics , please register or login
I'm glad to have found a "safe space" to talk about this doll! Hopefully, I'll be able to post more about her as I add improvements!
I don't see myself buying any, but I prefer the fantasy babies. I appreciate the craftmanship that goes into these, but the realistic ones sit right in the uncanny valley for me
