Dakota has a painted vinyl head made from the Realborn Dominic Awake sculpt. Her limbs and body are made of cloth. Dakota is 19 inches long and weighs about 3 pounds . She wears newborn-sized clothes. Cuddle babies are ideal for collectors that want realism on a budget or as a starter reborn for a child. They are perfect for older people or anyone who needs a lighter weight doll.
Top to Toe
Dakota has been painted with Genesis Heat Set Paints, including medium brown painted hair. She has applied brown lashes and blue acrylic eyes. There is a magnet behind her lips for a pacifier. Dakota’s peaches and cream skintone was achieved by a sixteen layer process that includes creasing and shading, undertones, mottling, blushing, and glossing. Her cloth body and limbs make her soft and cuddly. Her body and head have been realistically weighted with fine glass beads, then stuffed with polyfill.
