Oh no…actually it will be very easy to ship. That is he best part of my evil plan you know! Those wings are very flexable and can be folded for shipment! ha!!

I would not drill…not even hand drill. Windstones are very very easy to chip and pop, much more so than ceramics or plastic resin. I just cut the wires away and worked from there.I dunno, handrills can work with very fine drillbits, if she’s careful she might be okay! I’ve drilled seashells with my handdrill and it worked out better than I thought. I think you just need to do it in light passes, very quickly, so that the gypsum doesn’t have time to chip beyond the hole? Also lets you blow out the powdered gypsum from the hole. I’d say it’s worth a try anyway! Nothing ventured, nothing gained!
True, and if I do mess it up, I can always fix it…not like I haven’t done that before. LOL!

OMGosh Whippet! I can just imagine now a kirin tiny enough to fly on those wings-flitting from flower to flower spreading pollen and getting it all over his little hooves! 😯
she’s very pretty. I’d actually emailed one of the mods about a month ago wanting to do a similar thing with adding some wings I’ve been making, and she said we couldn’t sell them that way, because Pena’s artistic rights start to be blurred with our work, and it’s all a legal mess. (of course, we can keep them for ourselves that way)
so we can’t sell them, is what I understood? Any mods know the legal mumbojumbo well enough to answer for certain?

Your best bet for a clear answer is to ask John directly. John@windstoneeditions.com 🙂

My art: featherdust.comQuote:I think I had this discussion with our copyright attorney and we decided that it is
alright to add stuff like wings to the PYOs. It is implied when you purchase them
that you are going to decorate them. When it gets weird is when the basic sculpture
is modified and my argument is that resculpting the piece is not the same as adding
decoration. Alan said he would research the case law on this and I haven’t heard
back from him but I think we are OK with wings and other added decorations.John
I asked John, and here is his answer…we’re good, we can do wings. Yay!
