DAMIEN "The Omen" As an infant Character Idea BABY not

yes, you read that right.
i want to do a character doll and have him be based off the little boy in the classic The Omen, as well as the Remake of the same name

both of these are from the original series, the one on top is Damien from: "The Omen" and the one on the bottom is from "The Omen 2" (also the character Damien)

the new one has a child actor with just as piercing an expression on his face as well.

this is the New Damien from the remake (2006)

so, originally i wanted to make a toddler and had decided on a standard kit i think almost all toddlers can fit into and within and would look pretty awesome anyway it was made as ANY character in human form, but the kit is fairly expensive.
* ill add a different blog when i find some images of this toddler kit and these images i have posted for comparison and explain that idea i had then in that blog*

and for the most part MOST reborn collectors like..babies..
so, i had this brilliant idea come to mind to make a damian BABY..using a SCARLETT kit that has a near scowl facial expression.

2 about 2 weeks ago, while a chanel i like to watch was running the OMEN series on it back to back, it occured to me that SCARLET would make a PERFECT Damien baby...

not my work, this is the work of another reborn artist

so, thats an idea i have something special planned for the "sign of the beast" Damien has as well, but wont go into that at this moment, because im going to let that be a surprise in the photo shoot when i actually do do this as a character doll.

another ZAZZLE.com PRODUCT IVE SOLD - Baby Body Suit- EVOLUTION OF A ZOMBIE

like i mentioned in my other post, i sell more things OFF season, than when its a season (say, like halloween/october) to do with the gothic/monster/gore, or the like.

so it is with this cute baby creeper/body suite.

made a while ago when i had started my Undead Reborn Nursery, now renamed to: Gothic Reborn Nursery....

thats the one thing i really like about ZAZZLE. is your products once made (and approved) will be on there for ppl to get when ever they chose to, until you remove it, or they do, for whatever reason.

and the 2nd best thing? i enjoy the fact i make a little bit every time something sells, i have my rate set to the lowest right now, 10% of the total sale. not aloot, but if i sold everything i had created, id have a couple hundred bucks...but life isnt like that. its one penny at a time. one dollar at a time, and when ppl want/need it.

Order HERE

ZAZZLE PRODUCT I SOLD - SHARK MOUTH PACIFIER

so, occasionally, and it usually seems it happens OFF season, ill  sell something from my UNDEAD REBORN ZAZZLE STORE

i found, one morning, i had sold this...
i had originally made it for a doll im making for someone i know.
thought shed enjoy it. i published this on zaxzzle, and nearly a year later, it sold one!  hope that customer is happy, lol
would be great to see what it looked like on the child/baby!

Purchase HERE

ZAZZLE PRODUCTS IVE MADE (Baby Body Suits & Pacifiers)

i dont remember when i made these...i know it was this year (2014)

i keep images for reference

ium delighted that ZAZZLE now has black body suits, makes my Gothic side of reborning, that much more unique.
but im upset that the clothes are now fitted for larger infants. nolonger Newborn as a size, its 3-6 months as the lowest size (or at least when i made these)

craig suggested i just make t-shirts instead of these, which i could.
not sure of the sizes of those.

this ones not showing in my products, ill have to see if its saved, and then publish it. if i can, ill add the link for purchase under it.

nope. not there, not sure why...cause i saved the image from the product once i made it, i may make this again, i may not. i havnt decided yet on that.

HAD TO REDO THE SETTINGS FOR NETWORK BLOGS TO MAKE IT SYNDICATE..hopefully this works now.

had it instal a whole new widget, just to get this to syndicate.

its been over a year, since i updated anything on this particular blog, and i have some ideas i wanted to write about, toss around, walk through..just to have them out there.

this should auto feed to my Facebook page for this side of my doll work. wgich is what i have eben trying to get it to do for a while now, without any success..

but going through the steps, and adding a new widget, says it will now feed...

which is what i want.

so, hopefully, NOW..youll be updated as i post  articles i find, and things i want to do, pictures, etc..

HAPPY REBORNING!

ARTICLE _ LOOK AT THOSE CUTE WIDDLE FANGS! VAMPIRE, ZOMBIE 'REBORN' DOLLS DELIGHT COLLECTORS

Look at those cute widdle fangs! Vampire, zombie 'reborn' dolls delight collectors

When Lexi Friberg saw her baby for the first time, it was love at first sight.
“The eyes, glowing and without a pupil, really captured that vacant, infected feel for me. But the happy, smiling face juxtaposed with the black sludge coming from her mouth is what really stole my heart.”
Not exactly the words you’d expect to hear from a doting new mother. But we’re not exactly talking about normal babies.
Remember reborn babies? These shockingly realistic-looking baby dolls have captured the hearts of grown women, men and doll aficionados alike, even at a cost of up to $5,000 apiece. Add glowing eyes, teeny-tiny vampire fangs and a healthy dose of dark humor, and you're entering a whole new territory of the dark side.
Bean Shanine, owner of The Twisted Beanstalk Nursery in Bellingham, Wash., is one of several independent artists helping to fuel this new wave of zombie and vampire reborns. A former hairdresser, Bean never got into the reborn craze or even the vampire and zombie obsession fed by “Twilight” and “The Walking Dead.”

 Her entry into the underworld came while searching for the perfect Christmas gift for a friend whom Bean describes as “a bit darker.” She stumbled across a reborn kit. With a little creativity, Bean turned a normal reborn baby into a zombie baby. What better way to celebrate the season, right?

“I never in a million years thought I would be making reborns, and especially monster reborns. I don’t even LIKE monster things!” says Bean, who is surprisingly bubbly for someone who spends her day recreating undead babies. “After I made my friend her doll, I decided to make another with zombie eyes, just for fun. I listed it on eBay for $125 and it sold within 10 minutes. I couldn’t believe it.”
That was a little over a year ago, and now Bean’s business is booming. “Last year I made 50 dolls, and sold them for $650 and up. My Claudia doll inspired from the movie ‘Interview with the Vampire’ sold for $2,500.”
Lexi Friberg, a 35-year old psychology student from Dallas, Texas, is one of Bean’s best customers and has three of her dolls. “Bean has a talent for making monster babies that are subtle, not shocking or scary. She strikes a perfect balance between creepy and cute.”
Easy for Lexi to say: the self-described horror movie buff is rarely scared by zombies, monsters and the like. “If you’re a person that’s squeamish, it’s scary. To me, it’s cute! If I could adopt a real vampire child I would!”
 Lexi has 20 reborn dolls, all of whom are monster babies. Unlike many collectors of realistic looking reborns, Lexi does not treat these dolls like they are real children. “I don’t have time to care for them like they’re real babies.”

Like Lexi, the average customer of a monster reborn isn’t trying to fill a void, such as the loss of a child or an empty nest. In fact, Shanine shies away from this type of customer and tailors her creations to collectors seeking an artistic, albeit gory twist to their innocent-looking dolls.
“People who have realistic reborns buy them for all different reasons. But the ones seeking to fill a void are not my customers, and that’s the misconception. I recently had someone ask me to make them a normal-looking reborn to replicate a baby they lost. I always wonder if that’s healthy and if I’m really helping them to grieve. I have to be very careful and almost always say no.”
That doesn’t mean collecting vampire or zombie dolls comes without judgment. Bean is known as “Monster Girl,” which makes her laugh. And she has definitely fielded her fair share of angry emails.
“Your dolls are so creepy and disturbing. Such a waste of talent!” one dissatisfied non-customer wrote to her. “Why don't you put it towards something good and useful like painting prosthetic limbs?"
Lexi also understands the social stigma attached to having monster reborns, so she chooses to keep her babies indoors.
“Men are allowed to collect cars or model trains, but when an adult woman collects dolls, there’s this attitude of ‘you’re too old to be doing that.’ And when you add to it the fact that your doll is a monster, it’s way too weird. I’ve seen some comments and not everybody gets it. You have to be into the horror genre or else you won’t feel comfortable having a baby vampire at home sitting in the chair next to you.”
For collectors around the world, the reborn craze seems to be lurching steadily along. Bean is currently working on five custom orders, with one customer as far away as Latvia.
Whatever the reason for collecting and no matter the artistry involved, it’s important to remember that these really are just dolls. For instance, please don’t try to nurse your monster baby. Those fangs could really hurt.

 

ARTICLE - CREEPY REALISTIC VAMPIRE BABY DOLLS ARE IMMORTAL

Creepy realistic vampire baby dolls are immortal

Artist Bean Shanine takes ultra-realistic Reborn baby dolls and turns them into creepy creatures from beyond humanity.

 The vampire Reborns all have lifelike paint jobs, but their otherworldly origins show in their pointy teeth and red eyes. There's something very unsettling about these dolls. If you get one, you might want to sleep with one eye open.
While Shanine specializes in little bloodsuckers, she has also branched out into other areas, like zombie babies. She even created a set of "Avatar" twins with blue faces and bodies.
Owning your own monster baby doesn't come cheap. Prices vary depending on the size of the Reborn baby, whether it has open eyes, and whether it has rooted hair. Preemies start at $650. If you want to bypass the terrible twos, then a 4- or 5-year-old monster child will cost you at least $1,500. Still, that's cheaper than a real child and you don't have to start a college fund.
