Does anyone know how to do the dry skin effect on a reborn?

Hi,

I have seen many reborns with the beautiful dry peeling skin effect that some babies get if they are over due.

Has anyone got a tutorial for this. I have been told previously that you can use thick medium, bake it well and then use flesh 08.

I haven't tried it but I have a friend who has done this, I will have to ask her.

Thanks ladies. The links are fab.

Doris, it would be interesting to find out how your friend does the dry, peeling skin effect. Rachel Maynard (PLBD) did this effect beautifully on her Braydon kit.

I already add a final textured effect to my babies, but I would love to be able to 'nail' the flaky skin look for more realism too. Very Happy
