that crinkled look!

So while digging through packed boxes, trying to get rid of……………….un-needed sufff……I found some of my windstones!!! YAY!! am so happy. Among the dragons, I pulled out a male peacock…who ended up with his clear coat looking funked out(as in funky) from the bubble wrapping. It has this…crinkled look?
I vaguely remember a disgussion some time ago possible in 07 about it or early 08, does any one remember if there is a fix for that????? If I can’t fix him, I am just not sure what I will be able to do with him 🙁

I also found a white male in pristine condition I am thinking of selling, and one of my really early pieces or 07 i belive! it is a small dragon pyo with lovely blues and gold interference. I’ll be selling him.

yes I can! It definately is an interesting affect.

First off I have a small hoard of dragons packed, they were in storage for around 2 years.
The dragons were packed together, dragons in thier boxes..then those boxes in bigger boxes. And accordingly, these bigger boxes were packed in the same spot together.

The dragons I unpacked included in peacock: emporer, male, fledgling, coiled male, young, hatching empress. A ruby lap dragon. Variouse curlies, VF pleges, trio dragon and circle of cats candle lamp, Stegosaurouys, and a white male. Among a few others.

The Male dragon was in a box with the White male dragon. NEATHER one had original packing when i Purchased them, so I had both wrapped in bubble wrap, and in the same box. Thier box was with two or three other windstone boxes in a bigger box.

We had them in a detached work rook that is seperate from the house. No heating, no electricity. Surprisingly it is really dry in that room. We do not have a very high humidity here where I live, even in the winter. And when it rains, the room still stays very dry.
Temperaturse easily dip below freezing in that room, as there is little insilation, and in the summer we have a few days of 105 farenhiet. At most we get a week of that. So in general temperatures though out the year for that room fluctuate between 45-100 with the occational extreme. I did notice on previous occasions, that col temp. causes clear coat cracking…like on a glazed pottery…but none of my dragons have any clear coat crackling so it must not have gotten that cold.

Inside insulated boxes, I think the temp might be tappered a bit more, and there is never an instantaneous severe temp change.
The boxes were only in those conditions for around a little over a year. We then pulled them into our sunroom that has heating and cooling and is even more so very dry.

Now out of all of the dragons listed above.. Only the peacock male has crinkling. The white dragon that I had packed with him is perfect, just as if i packed him. All the other dragons as well are pristine, even my 3 pyo’s.

It makes me wonder.

I will be trying this blow gun idea, but one of the things i find odd is…if a blow gun can soften the coating that much, wouldn’t a couple of days in over 100 degree heat crinkled all the dragons??
