I know you have a lot to do already, Melody, but I was wondering if you are thinking about any new animals in candlelamps or otherwise?
I collect bunnies, and Dexter and Fletcher are next on my list, but it would be nice to see some that weren’t candlelamps… or a circle of bunnies candlelamp. That would be cool.
Also, I know a lot of people that like elephants, so have you ever thought about elephant anythings? I know I could probably sell them as a dealer.
Or weird, mixed up creatures, like chimeras or jabberwockies? Those would probably go well at conventions too.
Ooo ooo, or a fox.
February 24, 2007 at 7:49 pm #489822February 24, 2007 at 7:54 pm #543438I know that Melody says they are not planning any new candlelamps:
http://www.windstoneeditions.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=669And I seem to recall her saying that she was planning on sticking with mostly fantasy because the animal market is already saturated- but I could be wrong (I could just be thinking about cat and dog breeds)! I’ll let her answer for herself. 🙂

Fantasy creatures are cool too. She was asking a while ago about other creatures and there was a long discussion about basilisks and cockatrices. I just figured I’d add more ideas I just thought of and couldn’t find the original thread (actually, I was too lazy to look 😳 ).
February 24, 2007 at 8:40 pm #543440A chimera candlelamp. Ooh, I-d buy one in a heartbeat. And as many basilisks as she can come up with, too. 😀

Ooo ooo, or a fox.OOH, a winged fox? hmmm…
I never considered elephants because there is, or was, another company that specialized in them.It was called.. uh.. Peaceful Kingdom??… I think…or something like that. (not Harmony kingdom) They were really nice elephants.I try to stick to fantasy, except for when I don’t.
Thanks for the suggeswtions!
I want to hear what people want! It helps me decide what to do next.I am cosidering a raven something, hippocampus pyo, cat pyo.. I’d love to do a sphynx or two, but I don’t get very positive reactions to the ones I have done.. people haven’t started collecting them yet, I guess. I love sphynxes.February 24, 2007 at 10:22 pm #543442I would love a winged fox!
February 24, 2007 at 10:24 pm #543443I-m still hoping for that hippocampus PYO. How close to done is it?

Is there something about them that would make them recognizable as a distinct animal?
I picture a cockatrice as a dragon rooster.February 24, 2007 at 10:25 pm #543445Penguin, penguin, penguin *jumps up and down*
Ok, I know I brought it up before but you did mention a raven so I thought if you were in a fowl mood *snicker* you might consider a penguin. I’ll just go sit in the corner now…

It is still on paper.

I picture a cockatrice as a dragon rooster.Dragon rooster is right. ❗ This is my personal imagination here, but I think of a rooster-type head, but with an extra jagged beak. Even with jags that look like teeth. I-d make the comb spikey, too, not too round. The wings either leathery or feathery – leathery is probably way easier. And with dragon hind legs and tail. You-d make it look awesome any way, though – and I-d buy it. 😛

That’s ok – I actually just got a visual of a dragon chomping on a penguin and it wasn’t pretty. But thanks for responding.
