Repaints on Ebay

I watch the artist on facebook, she does lots of breyer and model horses, I was surprised to see a windstone from her. Not sure if she knows about repaints at all though :/

Ooh, it’s a lovely paint job. I hope hope hope he was super banged up, to justify repainting a Grand Peg… he’s seriously beautiful though.

I know; I noticed him a few days ago and thought she’d done a phenomenal job. Hopefully it was somehow a necessary one, and at least they’re not trying to pass it off as somehow in original condition.

I think she did a spectacular job on this and I hope she gets a lot for him. If I had any money right now I’d bid on him. Heres to hoping Windstone will make colored Pegasus of their own. I’m still hoping for a LP buckskin or leopard Appaloosa…

Now a brightly-colored “custom painted” Guardian Dragon Gargoyle has been listed (by a different seller).

That one might be something worth reporting to Windstone. The description doesn’t make it at all clear that this was NOT painted by a Windstone painter, whereas the Pegasus is very specific about that.

Another strange one that just showed up is:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/PENA-RUBY-RED-WINDSTONE-EDITIONS-RED-FIRE-SPECTRAL-DRAGON-CITRINE-STONE-18K-/290661729012?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43acca02f4#ht_500wt_1109

Actually, I think the red might just be really bad lighting. The “spectral” one listed by the same seller looks like a ruby male (not red fire or spectral).

To me it looks like the statue was photographed under fluorescent lighting which adds an awful greenish cast to things in photos. To the eye the statue looks OK under the light, but once a photo is taken anything shot under fluorescent lighting can take on a strange color cast.
