Wow, her hair turned out
wonderful! It is soaking wet in these photos and
her shine came back a little bit more. Used very
hot water AFTER I re-styled the hair into braids to
keep down on the old scalp thread from giving way as
it always does when wet after 50ish years. Very little
hair loss that way. You cannot see any scalp
showing now. She will be wearing her ribbons at
the top to keep down any attention to the small spot
in the back where there was hair loss. Pulled
the hair more downwards to cover the area where hair
was lost also. The last photo above makes it
appear to have hair there on her neck but actually her
neck is clear of hair like the photo on the left
above. The dark spot on the photo on the right
below her hair is a shadow. Going to ask Fr.
Hubby if he would spritz the Air Spray paint a tiny
bit on the patched plastic compound in the finished
body photos way below here. Will show you the
body again when he does that. He normally works
one to two days on the dolls so I have to catch him during
the week from time to time. Slows things down at
times. Notice her shiny mouth now and cleaned
well. Cheek blushing and eye shadow will be done
later. Need to machine polish the eyes and set
them back in along with the preventative platforms we
created to keep her eyes from rolling and sinking
first.
Dr.
Hubby is applying the patches on her torso now.
Will
photo her when she is finished.
SEE BELOW:
She has been sanded and sealed. Almost like
new. A good plastic compound was used. Her
plastic looks so much softer now. Hands and
knees blushed.
