the appearance of pores comes from the stippling of the paint and I use a ball stylus and sharp needle for hairs that I draw in the clay

oh, ok ! i'd figured out the brows, but her cheeks look like they have a fine duvet - i guess it's the paint then. thank you so much for answering my question, you just gave me my very first painting lesson, i really appreciate. :*

yes well its Genesis heat set oil paint and the way I apply it is with a pouncing motion with a stiff boar bristle brush. The paint is thicker so you get a stippling that stands up a bit.

it's really cool, - and you are truly adorable ! i guess i'll have to invest in those paints some day, and give it a try. more for the experimenting fun, since i don't think it would have the same effect on a much smaller face. thank you so much for sharing your tips, i don't believe everyone would.

the genesis are good paints since you never have to worry they will dry out as your still working:)
I paint this way on smaller dolls as well but the effect is different. if depends on how heavily you apply the paint as well.

i guess on smaller dolls one would need much finer bristles but still stiff enough - that probably doesn't exist, hmm. maybe try to make it with something else, re-hmm.

perhaps a sponge and acrylic would do the same on a small scale.
