Hi Shaylen
You are an excellent reborn artist. I love how each one of those sculpts just come to life. I am following the contest on facebook….
Aww, thanks Connie. Good luck to you! ❤
Hi Shaylen ,I realy love the Owen Francis by Tuzio Ross you did . I was wondering if you could reborn me one that looks just like that and roughly how much and how it would take to make him I am trying to give him as a Christmas gift.please and thank you
Hi Abbie,
Thanks so much for contacting me through my site. OMG! I would LOOOOOVE to make you an Owen Francis just like the one I did recently, he was one of my very favourites. Such a beautiful baby! The sculpt details were phenomenal. 😀 I tried emailing you but there was a bounceback. Email me at customreborn@gmail.com and I’ll shoot off an email to you about the details on how to proceed on him! 🙂
