Check out this in depth face up video, where I talk about painting faces and things around this topic for 20 minutes. Workflow, materials, tips on applying pastels and paints, and all the stuff I thought you might find useful to start repainting dolls but also make your face ups better. I know there's a lot of very specific tips in this video but this is what I miss in regular yt doll customizing videos.
I'm sure there are different techniques out there that I didn't cover but this is how I make my dolls. If you have more questions don't hesitate to send me a chat message or comment here! We'll try to find a solution, alternative materials or think of interesting ideas.
