Sculpted and Painted Baby

Well, I painted the baby. It looks okay but I was hoping I could pull off a slightly more realistic look!   This baked in the oven for 2 hours and is all set. I painted it with acrylic paint. Maybe next time I try this I can get some more realism worked in!



JM commented and asked me how small the figure is. I thought this picture might help give a size reference!   Beside the baby sculpture is a little rose I made last night too, and painted this morning.
