Thank you! The freckles are easy to do. I just water down watercolor paints to the consistency of skim milk and then I dip a toothbrush into it. Then I splatter it all over the head (put cotton balls inside the head in the eye sockets, and some kneaded erasers in the ears) and let it dry. If I want freckles all over I leave it like that, but if I only want some along the cheeks and nose, I take a wet q-tip and wipe away the ones I don't want. Then I blush over the freckles to soften them.

You're very welcome! It may take a few tries to get them "right" but the beauty of watercolor paint is you can just wipe it away and try again!

I think you did a great job! The freckles are very realistic.
