This basic set of 13 brushes has all the ones I use the most, including the concealer castor used for cheeks below. Cost is near x% less than ownership the brushes individually. $94.00 Add to Cart LINERS - These are used for painting stand up lone lines (eyeliner, lashes, brows and stripes) and are designed for dragging along dispensing paint stored in their longer bristles to make fine lines. I also sometimes apply these to outline lips using a larger brush to fill in. Utilize the script for painting longer lines (eyebrows, eyelids) on larger dolls (14" and upwardly), stripes or making starting lines for tops of painted doll shoes. Tip: never utilise a spotter or a typical round brush for lines (eyelining or eyebrows). Because they accept shorter bristles it may look like y'all would accept command, but they are non designed for holding paint along a line then you terminate upwardly having to become more paint more than often which interupts the painting of a polish continous line. • Extra Fine Line - I utilize this brush, trimmed - see beneath *Note - fro about all my dolls eyelines. $half-dozen.75 Add together to Cart • Spotters - Used for pupils on tiny dolls or repairing/filling in pocket-sized areas on tiny dolls (non for painting lines!) $6.l Add together to Cart FLAT BRUSHES - Adept for surface painting in wide strokes. I utilize the smallest for filling in whites of eyes, irises, and lips on dolls bigger than Hitty. I employ the 1/xvi - 1/four for edging and filling in for pilus and painted shoes. The 3/8 - ane/2" ones are used for spreading on larger areas of paint like skin and sealing coats. Hint: I go on separate brushes in each size for dark paints and clear coating due to tiny bits of color pigment stay lodged in the bristles (no matter how much you clean) that go stuck in the finish clear coats. • one/16" $half dozen.l Add to Cart CU RVED Terminate BRUSHES AND FILBERTS - These brushes are flat with curved ends. They are essential for proficient blending. The smaller concealer brush is the best brush for doll cheeks in acrylic or oil. I use both sizes of Concealers for any stippling. • Small Filbert for tiny areas and dolls (6-12") $7.00 Add to Cart FOR CHEEKS AND STIPPLING - (Concealer Brushes) ~ In my pinnacle 3 about-used brushes (for easiest-e'er cheeks) are not available in art supplies. They are called concealer brushes sold in the makeup section of drug stores. I utilize ii sizes and the ones I look for are chosen Fine Concealer (3/16" beyond) and Concealer (5/xvi" across) brushes. As of this writing, I discover it increasingly difficult to find the same quality, then I no longer recommend searching out your own unless y'all are willing to experiment. Although in the art world these resemble filbert brushes, they behave much better, and for the low price you simply cannot get a meliorate brush. Information technology seems to dry brush ameliorate and stipple better for lots longer. I use them for cheeks and applying pigment where I want to stipple or pounce the paint on to attain shading. Other brushes lift off previous paint, but these are better at not. See section higher up to purchase these or curl down to get sets of paints with include one of these just for cheeks. COMB OR RAKE BRUSHES - These are for painting in the strokes that wait like hair on Columbians and Izannah Walkers. They are constructed of alternating pocket-size clumps of long and curt bristles. The longer bristles absorb and transmit the pigment (usually somewhat thinned down) leaving spaces where the shorter bristles don't touch on. At least that's the theory, which more often than not does not work as planned and y'all end up with a glob of paint where you lot really wanted private strokes like hair. I used to offer (and attempt to use) varying sizes, but in 2022, I had a contract to brand 250 dolls who would require using comb brushes. I tried every castor out there and in the cease I found two important tricks. One is that unless your doll is very large (say 20" or more), information technology is unlikely that you would always really want more than the i size brush I am at present devoted to. It is sold every bit a 1/8", but really is a fleck wider especially when the bristles spread as you put any force per unit area on the brush. Using this size brush means that information technology might take you longer to cover the intended expanse, only you will accept and so much more command over what yous are painting, that information technology is well worth a few extra strokes. Merely what, you ask, do I practise with my stash of bigger sizes of this type of castor? You can trim in from either side right side by side to the metallic ferule and yet get some good utilize or save them for larger areas. I will continue to sell the one/4" size as well for dolls in larger sizes. The key to success using comb (or rake) brushes is to run the beard freshly loaded with pigment through a very fine tooth comb held in place in a small stand which holds the tiny comb horizontally with tines upwards so you hands are both gratis to hold the doll in one manus and use the paint castor in the other. Every fourth dimension you get fresh pigment (afterward cleaning off your castor), run the bristles thru the tiny rummage stand which will nicely separate your bristles and then every bit to paint overnice parallel lines. This little tool makes comb brushing hair details easier, an otherwise hard chore to master. In fact, in my experience, I don't think you tin can employ these brushes without this tool. Instructions included. Clean this tool frequently and utilize for a long time. • 1/8" (more like 3/16") Rummage/Rake Brush 11.00 Add together to Cart Clasp BOTTLES (For dispensing paints, drops of water, drops of retarder - These modest squeeze bottles are a swell size to keep these supplies not merely readily at hand but ready to dispense while you piece of work.

PAINTS FOR CHEEKS NEW - CHEEK Paint Fix with OPEN ACRYLICS ~ My favorite technique for painting all of my dolls' cheeks is with oil paints (alkyds) using a concealer brush, but sometimes you only don't want to employ oils, even fast drying ones, then I have discovered that the use of open up acrylics is as shut as y'all tin can come to using oils with the benefit of their being h2o based. The little pot I am supplying in this starter kit will concluding a long time and do many dolls' cheeks. The set includes the pot to get started of my special color mix and another pot of sealer, instructions and tips plus the recipe for making more and best of all, the special concealer castor. $5.95 Add to Cart WAX ANTIQUING MEDIUM (Non for painted surfaces) ANTIQUING GLAZE FOR PAINTED SURFACES OIL BASED ANTIQUING Fabricated Certain AND Like shooting fish in a barrel - MAKE YOUR Ain DARK ANTIQUING (WATER BASE) FOR Blackness DOLLS AND Hair ACCENTS ON LIGHT Pilus VARNISH This is a high quality varnish with a nice finish in a soft sheen. 2 oz. $3.75 Add to Cart | ||

Paint (matte stop) must be thinned to sink in and allow some "tooth" (not exist besides smooth). With pencils you have the most control as opposed to brushes, they can be erased until correct, and if sealed properly, will concluding, especially for display dolls (not played with).

Can also be used on bare textile but a spray fixitive required. $11.50 Add to Cart NEW - ALKYD OIL PAINTING TRIAL Set up ~ Buying oils to just try a doll is very costly, but here is plenty to paint many dolls (at to the lowest degree the detail colors and enough to pigment one doll's peel colour and more if you add some white). These are my favorite fast drying alkyd oils. Alkyds dry out inside a few hours every bit opposed to several days with regular oils. The gear up comes with how to mix the right colors and some basic getting started info. All yous demand are good brushes and turpentine or turp substitute. Oils dry out in modest quantities, so do not society these until you are prepare to apply (I cannot guarantee how long they are usable - peradventure a few months if not opened). We put them upward fresh for each order. Once you decide yous like using oils, then investing in your ain full tubes (which last forever)will experience improve. $13.95 Add to Cart MY FAVORITE CHEEK PAINT Prepare TO THE RESCUE ~ Use acrylics for all other painting, merely utilise alkyd oils for at least cheeks for amend, easier cheeks.

Brand YOUR Own OIL BASED ANTIQUING - Scroll back up to come across this. COBALT DRIER ~ GAIL'Due south FAVORITE DRYER FOR OILS (ALKYDS OR REGULAR) ~ Cobalt Dryer is the only dryer that dries really fast and hard without making the paints shiny. A driblet or two of this old stand up-past drier is all y'all need to make your alkyds dry in almost an 60 minutes or and then. Use circumspection as cobalt is unsafe if non used wisely. .v oz container with eyedropper lid. $vii.00 Add to Cart TURPENOID ~ TURPENTINE SUBSTITUTE ~ I recommend Turpenoid in a lot of my work where any oil painting is done. This product is odorless (well, a small-scale odor is in that location to exist honest, but non bothersome). I got in the addiction of using it due to education where some students are sensitive to real turpentine. Pocket-sized 4 oz. bottle $seven.50 Add to Cart Tip for Turpenoid: If you are getting this product elsewhere, make sure to get regular Turpenoid (bluish can) and non Turpenoid Natural (light-green tin can or characterization). Only use the Natural for cleaning brushes or wearing apparel and not as a medium for use on your painting. Information technology contains additives to soften paints (for cleaning) then yous will end upwardly softening the underlying layers and they will not dry well. Perhaps not even last long once dried. HINTS FOR Proficient BRUSH MAINTAINANCE (Water based paints hints) - Do not overlook the importance of this step in expert painting. If your brushes are hindering your painting quality, information technology is likely they have non been properly maintained or replaced. Get some Castor Cleaner (a powerful solvent to clean hardened paint), and some alcohol, an eye dropper or tiny squeeze canteen of water, some liquid soap (expert is Dr Bronner's available in health foods or beneath) and if you admit you are the type to put your castor in the clean up water and go out it in that location, accept some clothespins handy and so y'all can suspend your castor in the water and not allow it sit there with beard resting on the bottom. While painting, clean your brush often and wipe and squeeze bristles flat in your rag. Do this nearly every dip into the paint for best results. Otherwise, the pigment starts to glob and dry on the bristles. This seems dull, but necessary. Also go on adding a drop or two of water to your paint and stirring with toothpick to keep information technology flowing - as you are painting, the surface is drying in the air, and then adding a couple drops of water at a time replaces evaporated water. When you are washed with a certain brush, rinse well in the h2o. Pour some alcohol in a small container (I go on one handy) or even merely the alcohol cap and really work in the booze (even bending the bristles so it gets style inside where the damage begins as dried upwards pigment starts to spread the beard). You lot volition be amazed at how discolored the alcohol gets. Once information technology is really clean, put a drop or 2 of the soap on the bristles, clean in running water and thensquish another drop of the soap into the bristles squeezing them apartment and "pointing" the bristles like the brush was new. Allow dry with soap in it and information technology is ready to apply again. In cases where you forgot your brush and now the paint is dry out and beard strong, decant a little of the Brush Cleaner mentioned above and soak the bristles till the stale paint is soft. Wipe off as much as possible with a rag, so repeat until it seems clean. Now finish upward with the alcohol and soap. Do not overestimate how long a brush is skilful for. Even well-cared for brushes do not last very long. Owning new condition proficient quality brushes at all times will make your painting much easier, in fact, it may not be possible to paint well without them.

| DYES & OVERDYES | |
 | DYE - Rit Tan Since information technology is sometimes difficult to find, here is an economy size of the powdered tan dye I use to overdye but well-nigh everything to give things that but-right one-time look or sometimes just to take the newness or effulgence off of some fabrics you lot might not otherwise use.

| Original Aged | ORIGINAL Pigment OVERDYE |
 Yellowing | Pigment OVERDYE FOR THE YELLOWED Await I have been finding the need for an overdye that gives a more yellowed wait - simply the kind that sometime whites and old laces get. Presenting this new formula. NOTES ~ To distinguish between the Original and Yellowing (I recommend y'all have some of each since it is not e'er a given which 1 you will like the best in whatsoever state of affairs), the original formula (above) should exist thought of every bit giving the aged and dirty await and for toning downward that too bright look of many prints and fabrics, and the new formula for when a more than aged, just yellowed expect is desired. I found the yellowing formula best on laces and some whites. An example of how fickle dyeing is, I apply my Original recipe on virtually fabrics and my regular fine batiste, but for the extra fine batiste I observe the Yellowing works all-time. Most times we need Yellowing on laces used but Original on the batiste even if they are going together. This is why I recommend having both recipes on manus. Experiment on small pieces. 2oz. jar (will do a lot) $7.50 Add to Cart |
| New Overdye for Doll Bodies | PAINT OVERDYE FOR DOLL Torso FABRIC When my 30+ years of always using i tried and true cotton body fabric which came in only the right tan was discontinued I first needed to stop wailing and tearing out my pilus and figure out what next. Not wanting to switch fabrics, it remained to order the same material in an unacceptable light color and and then piece of work out a paint overdye colour to brand my own expert color for that vintage and much handled look everyone loves on old cloth dolls. This new color can be used on any calorie-free cotton and unlike manufacturing plant dyed cloth, does help to add to the truthful age as whatsoever manus dyed fiber does, which are the good things out of the bad. We besides have used this as a darker overdye on some fabrics needed a darker cast. 2oz. jar (volition practice a lot) $7.50 Add to Cart |

GAIL WILSON FAVORITE DYE RECIPES AND INSTRUCTIONS
This collection of my bones palette of GW colors uses Rit powdered dyes. I no longer sell pre-mixed packets of the colors, but all may exist readily constitute either in stores near you or by Googling the colors in each recipe. Each recipe in the color palette has iii variations.
