Artist Reply: Thank you Claire :) Actually, the photo above is of my original sculpture ..the head (except for the glass eyes), & limbs are hand sculpted using polymer clay, NO MOLDS are used. I then bake the pieces to harden the clay, then painting..soft cloth body & it's finished...ok so it is a little more time consuming and involved lol, that's the simple explanation ;) I sent my Tessa sculpt to a manufacturer for production in soft vinyl for repaint artists...feel free to let me know if you have anymore questions. THANK YOU for the wonderful compliments too?! Shawna
