Baby Timothy has have been lovingly brought to life using Genesis Heat Set Paints, these paints are permanent and will not fade or chip.
Before starting the painting process she had a very hot baby bubble bath so he has that beautiful baby smell.
Using my very own skin tone mix as a base coat I started building the different skin tones of dark and shade over many hours sealing each layer at very high temperatures so paint it will not fade or chip.
I then added some light blue veins on different parts of his body that are just visible through his skin for that extra touch of realism. I have also given Timothy that real baby mottled skin look which suits him perfectly.
His fingers and toe nails have been given some slight blushing with off white tips added then sealed with varnish. He has 3/4 arms and 3/4 legs.
I have given Timothy very soft dark brown micro rooted hair that can be gently styled using water. He also has micro rooted eyelashes in the same soft mohair.
Timothy’s body has been weighted using heavy weight glass beads placed inside a sealed unit so no leakage can occur, heavy weight filling and baby fat, his arms and legs have ultra fine glass sand topped with fibre fill. He has fully jointed toned cloth body.
His head has been weighted with slightly larger glass beads (but still very fine) to give the weight needed for his head to flop.
All this gives Timothy that very life like baby feel and makes him a real pleasure to hold.
I’ve Opened Timothy’s nose shading the inside to add depth, also backed his nose with dark felt for extra depth.
His lips have been painted using several different shades of paint.
All photos have been taken in natural sun light and have not been enhanced or altered in any way. I apologies for some being dark that is our British summer for you.
Timothy is no longer a toy and is not suitable for children he is a collectors item.
