This here be the prize for the October 2011 raffle. This is “White Noise”, the male griffin. He is a “rescue” piece that I airbrushed in an odd, but interesting black and white pattern with spots and markings that are hand detailed with various metallic colors. He has teal colored eyes and three aqua colored … Read more
Look at this cake! It is Snerl, and he is smiling! Just like me! We were all stunned to find this gorgeous surprise in the break room yesterday! A magnificent cake with the Windstone logo on it, along with a hefty box of incredible cookies. This really made our day! Thank you so much to … Read more
Click on the image and select “view image” to see the whole photo. This is a group shot of 72 of the young unicorns from the September 2011 edition. We accidentally boxed about 70 before we remembered to photo them, so this is only about half of them. These unicorns all have some fantasy color, … Read more
I have been painting fennecs. They are tiny, smooth, round and slippery. They roll off of their little painting wheels and get jammed behind the turntable in my paint booth. They get little specks on them. They get their copyright notices accidentally sanded off of their bums easily. They roll over on the carts. They … Read more
This is “Candy” the September 2011 Windstone Editions raffle prize. He ( she?) is a Spectral dragon, painted in many shades of pastel metallic paint. The Spectral dragon has dichroic globes for eyes. Her eyes look dark in this photo, but they will reflect brightly in the right light. If you would like to enter … Read more
Here are some snapshots of the OW and Lap dragon with the “Garden Dragon” for a size comparison. The pictures are a little bit deceiving, because from the front, it almost appears as if the Garden drag and the OW are close to the same size, but if you compare them from other angles you … Read more
This is “Irene” the lovely raffle prize for August 2011. This is a horrible photo, sorry, she is much more elegant looking when she isn’t surrounded by a disgustingly dirty paint booth. She is basic black with blue and violet along her dorsal scales and flame colors other places. She has metallic gold spots red … Read more
Here is a class photo of the the latest batch of baby unicorns. This group has more individuals with fantasy colors. There are lots of metallic colored ones and a calico or two, and some interesting eye colors. These have all been dusted with “magic invisible paint” too, so they will sparkle in the sunlight. … Read more
The picture in the store doesn’t show the color well. These curlies aren’t solid copper colored, their top side is mostly a dark rosy brown color with a blush of russet red on their wings. I need to take a picture to post here… hang on a minute…OK, these are quickie snapshots I took, but … Read more
The July raffle prize is this swell test-painted tiger Fledgling dragon. I was working out the tiger pattern on this piece, so he isn’t absolutely perfect, but he will make a lovely raffle prize! “Blake” is a tiger tiger burning bright, with deep teal colored wings, teal eyes and a matching aqua colored jewel in … Read more
Twindragonsmum had asked me if Snerl , our logo griffin, had a family. For some reason, yes he does a have a family! This is a old sketch I did of him, (I had to clean it up a lot in photoshop to make it presentable.) This is Snerl with “Shady Grove” the mare, and … Read more
Even in black, this cheerful creature doesn’t look very “Goth”. Looks more like a puppy. We have cast enough of these guys to do a store batch. These are cast out of the ORIGINAL molds, which are at least ten years old! I am totally amazed that they still work. We retired these unicorns in … Read more
OK! OK! I found something! This is “Zonker”, the Zedonk Hatching Pegasus. He is the prize for the June Windstone raffle. He is about the size of a lemon. His extended wing is painted pewter, so that it is durable. The rest of him is cast gypsum, and he has brown glass eyes. If you … Read more
It seems like this new griffin color, ” Silver Wolf”, popped up out of nowhere, but I have been fighting with the color of the “Wolf” griffins for years. They never looked quite the way I had imagined. I finally decided to be brave and totally change the color of the “Wolfs” from the brownish … Read more
I painted more of them! Thought you’d like to see a snapshot, even though they don’t have their eyes and horns yet. Notice the crisp markings on the pintos? I cut stencils this time, so no more soft-edged pinto markings. This batch has many palominos and buckskins, a few blood bays with “high white” markings, … Read more
