Is there any type of action type molds in progress?
Don’t get me wrong, I love my dragons and there isn’t any other sculpt I feel that could hold a candle to the Windstones! But all of the dragons are either laying down or sitting, except for the scratching dragon. Is there any chance of getting one standing or with wings extended? Something in motion? Maybe attacking or stalking?
Same with the flions and gryphons… I think an attacking flion would be simply awesome if there was a way to work the mold.
Just wondering!
Not to speak for Melody…but action poses won’t work for the materials she uses for her sculptures. She can explain better…
I love them kinda sitting though better than an action pose. They are kinda my house guardians and they look the part! 🙂Indeed, there are severe limitations to the gypsum medium (they have to not only and support their own weight, but also cast correctly, and importantly- survive shipping!)
Here’s Melody’s thoughts on it from another topic…

What do you think about having some bronze works? Carving the sculptures in wax and sending off to a foundry for a casting. I know that they would be beyond expensive…but totally worth it. It would not have the amazing colors perhaps…but would be forever sound with almost no chance of breaking! I would love to own one myself.
Ever tried this? Its lots of fun! Even dumb me has a bronze that I did…I love it so much even if its not “seller”.Oh yes , we are always thinking about this. Maybe someday! Just for the luxury of not making everything “clumpy”. It would be a delight to sculpt a dragon or animal with real legs for once.

My art: featherdust.comYou’re not alone with your wish, IK. But I dread to think of how spread wings or claws with no base would look after being shipped by anybody but a collector on the level of btweddingcreations or ultdragonian.
If she can do an action pose on a base for a Unicorn (Grand in this case) is there a posibility of a dragon on a base? 😕 (Just something else rambling through my mind) I mean, if it gave us an action pose wouldn’t you pay more for it? I know I would! 😀
I need to change my signature. It’s actually 19 now. Still puny, I know… But I haven’t had time to work any more on my basilisk picture.
I have to say the old painting doesn’t look right that was posted of a Basilisk…I don’t like it. But the new “anime” style pics of one are pretty cool.
And we all started out with a few to begin with. 😉 Just think, for the years I have been collecting, I averaged only 5 or 6 peices a year…Not many, but then again, I didn’t have cash-flow for 8 of those years… 😯
I didn’t like the basilisk painting at all either. It’s ugly. That’s why I’m making my own. 😉
I have to keep reminding myself that everybody started small. But looking at collections like Nirvana’s or Ski’s or Wolfen’s… Bandwagon feeling is in full effect. And that’s despite the fact that my emerald Riser will be waiting for me tomorrow after school and I still don’t have a clue where to put him! 😕Atleast you got him! I am missing that Emerald peice. I have the regular emerald Spectral…But I have come to know a few of the names here and when I see them bidding on things on Ebay, I usually leave it alone. 😀
Headlines has an emerald Riser – for the royal price of $370. Maybe you saw him.
