The eyes were not uncovered after the dragon was repainted. Wonder what color eyes and jewels are hiding under there.

Yeah I wasn’t sure if maybe he was a fake… 😕 It should have said on the auction tho that he’s a re-paint 😯

Well it does say “It is an alternate painting of a WindStone young dragon statue”. Too bad the young dragon hasn’t come in silver yet.

Why’d they leave the eyes painted over? That looks so wrong to me!

Got a busted Windstone?

Wait–wasn’t there a thread earlier that showed a bootleg copy that looked like this? I remember something about an eBay seller who had fake Windstones that he’d made by first making a cast of a real Windstone with the eyes left in place. The resulting mold produced blanks that had solid plaster eyes.

Certainly this seller may have obtained the piece secondhand and in good faith. I don’t think this person is another bootlegger; for one thing, calling it a Windstone would be suicidal if they were producing fakes. Or someone may have repainted a real Windstone and frankly forgotten about protecting the eyes (whoops). I guess I’d rather it was a somewhat goofed-up repaint than a copy. :/

Either someone took the eyes out and replaced them or it’s a fake. Did you notice this line?

It is a replica of a WindStone young dragon statue, and the eyes are not the regular kind found in a Windstone.

That definitely sounds like a knock off of some kind.

I posted in the knockoff thread too, but he said he thinks it’s a cast. So, either he doesn’t know how spot painted over eyes or it’s a fake. I have asked him if it has a felt pad on the bottom, no reply yet, but that will tell for sure…

Yes, it is def a fake. If you look at the wings, the area under the wing points isn’t correct. There should be a hole under the third ‘section’ and there is not….
