Look who's awake in the nursery! Please welcome Jack. This is the "Archie" kit by the wonderful Julia Homa. Jack was hand painted using Genesis heat set paints. This paint is permanent. He has subtle mottling and veining throughout his limbs, blue and purple undertones where babies have thinner skin. I use my own combination of Genesis varnish to matte, seal and protect his painting and give him a slight texture. I have given Jack a lovely new baby skin tone. I paint only in natural daylight, apply many thin layers for a realistic 3D effect and never rush my work. I mix my own colors making Jack truly one of kind! Jack has painted eyebrows and dark rooted lashes. His sweet nose has been shaded to create depth and I have added the moisture affect to his eyelids, ears, and nostrils. His lips have been lightly glossed. A nail scratch on his chin adds to his details. Jack has a professionally made cloth body. It features non jointed full length arms and full legs with a gathered tushy and darted chest for the ultimate in realism when posing or holding sweet Jack. It is a lovely flesh color and will look seamless under clothes. Jack fits well into newborn sized clothing depending on the brand and the fit you like. His limbs and body are filled with a combination of 2 different size fine glass beads, soft fiberfill and a baby fat tummy insert. I have weighted him to feel like a real baby in your arms. He is scented to keep him smelling baby fresh. His sweet fingers and toes have been tipped and sealed. I have given Jack beautiful Lauscha glass eyes in a light baby blue/grey color. I then glossed them over for a moist and realistic look. I have chosen high quality angora yearling mohair in a pale blonde color for Jack. It is directionally micro rooted, very soft, straight to slightly wavy and sealed from the inside so that it may be gently styled. Rooted hair really adds to the realism of your reborn!
Simply adorable!
Jack's layette features: Big trucks themed bodysuit, 2 piece colorful printed set, cotton socks, modified pacifier, disposable diaper, soft blanket, birth certificate, baby's first photo, COA and care instructions.
Baby Jack is handmade, fragile and considered art, not a toy. He is meant to be displayed and observed. I do not recommend my babies for children under the age of 14. I have been creating reborn babies for years and have been a prototype artist for top sculptors such as Toby Morgan, Tru Born Inc and Cassie Brace. Each baby made in my studio takes many hours of dedication to complete. I take pride in my art and care about my work. I use only quality materials and proven methods along with some of my own techniques. I am constantly working to improve with each baby made. Please feel free to message me any questions or to ask for additional pictures before purchasing so that you are confident of your purchase. I am always happy to hear from customers and will get back to you asap, usually within a few hours. The name Jack is a suggestion and may be changed by you at adoption.
I take very detailed box packing photos to ensure baby was packed with care. Baby is represented in the photos to the best of my ability with all pictures taken by myself in natural daylight using a Nikon dslr camera over a two day period. Baby is painted art so the skin tone may vary slightly depending on the light in which baby is displayed. I use a color calibrated, high resolution monitor. Monitor settings may differ so please allow for this. It is best to view the pictures from several different devices if you can. As with any handmade item slight imperfections can occur but do not detract from the beauty of the art work. Please make sure the baby is for you BEFORE buying. I do not offer a private layaway here however you may take advantage of PayPal's delayed payment program (pending approval). I do not alter my reborns once completed so please do not ask for any modifications. I use a digital scale to weigh the baby. The accuracy of other digital scales may vary slightly. I strive for a pleasant transaction. Baby comes with the items in the layette section only. All other items in photos are props and not included in the sale. This listing may end at any time as I also offer my reborns on other social platforms. Thank you for looking! :)
