Painting hair lines on silicones?
I am really interested and more so as the year goes by, in perfecting how silicones are finished.
I absolutely stipulate good hair, perfect nail beds and beautiful matting, therefore... I am wondering if any of you sili artists can unveil a little about painted hairlines on silicones?
Working with silicone seems to me to be a challenge at best, so how does one even go about getting the pigmented silicone the right consistency to produce tiny, realistic looking baby strands?
Thank you in advance, from a curious collector

Hi Liddy
So far none of the silicones I have had that had painted hair had fine hairs like you can get on a reborn
they all seem to be a lot thicker and not very realistic..
have had it on around 8 silicones now.......

Darn it! Both Bianca and Julitte Strydom have had them, I adored Bianca's in particular as it framed her large pretty face. I just wonder how it's done.Littleonesmariena wrote:Hi Liddy

On saying that, I have a real baby around to study and she's always had a high hairline and everything stands on end

I prefer to use very fine mohair for the wispy hairline, it's usually finer than any brush stroke I can produce.
