She is a vintage bisque head doll who has met with a grievous injury.
Most of her bits have arrived. Apparently some were in smithereens and were not saved.
That reveals where the missing pieces came from.
With bigger defects I like to put a in a base to support the sculpting epoxy. This is a small piece of automotive mesh that I have glued under the hole.
I forgot to take a picture of the epoxy putty in place but here it is smoothed and painted to blend in.
That's a great technique. I'm always amazed at doll restoration and the ingenuity involved.
