The art of creating reborn and
newborn dolls are unarguably the best categories in doll making yet also a bit
controversial. The dolls are masterfully
made out of high quality materials made of vinyl and porcelain which make them
exquisite collectibles. The creation of
one masterpiece can take weeks or months using different techniques in
achieving its realistic appearance and features. Doll artists who specialize in these two
categories are after for those life-like qualities of an infant which require
fine details and extreme patience to achieve.
Each reborn or newborn doll
artist has their own techniques and crafting skills which make their doll
creations unique and one of a kind. The
creation of these dolls can painstakingly take great focus and attention even
to the last strand of hair that is rooted to the dolls head. But what really makes reborn and newborn
dolls different is the way they are made.
Although the final product looks just exactly the same, the appearance
of an infant, but the difference lies on the way they are crafted in the first
place. The difference between the two is
that the process of “reborning”, as from the term itself, involves the process
of dismantling an existing or old doll and recreating it into a new doll. The dismantling encompasses removing the
hair, paint, eyes, and other old features of the doll.
On the other hand, “newborning”
starts at a barebones package where most doll artists would buy doll parts and
assemble them together. The more
prominent newborn doll artists mold their own doll parts and continue the
process where it goes through painting, hair rooting, and then dressing. Interested doll collectors and artists who
want to try their hands on creating newborn dolls can easily find and purchase
kits online. From the individual doll
parts like the head, limbs, body, hands, arms, eyes, and hair these can easily
be ordered online as well as the paints and tools.
There are already several doll
artists who mold their doll parts and whom other newborn doll enthusiasts would
go to when it comes to their custom needs.
Through customization and individuals techniques in making these newborn
dolls, it is definitely true that there are no newborn or even reborn dolls
that are alike. The newborn and reborn
dolls can take any shape, race, and facial expression which the artist
prefers. Most of these dolls sometimes
get into the headlines since they are thought to be real and sometimes there
are other collectors who acquire these for their emotional longing of having a
child. Either way, these creations are
truly magnificent and are regarded as exquisite form of art.
