Dreamscape, Orion, Poison Dart, Fireberry, Spangler + Tigerberry DragonsYes i agree too that the foo dog is awesome looking! (for those who haven’t seen it, click on the 2 hr mark on the GB unicorns april 16th video. You’ll see the new SK dragons and a few minutes in they show the foo dog).
Im curious, since it’s mouth is open, is there a globe that’s going to come with it or no?

3. Female Griffin – Siamese with White
4. September Raffle Prize 2022 AHD Male GriffinOoh, saw on the vid. Is it confirmed that there’s more than one, or is that just hopeful thinking?
Also, I’d love to see a photograph of it! The vid was sorta fuzzy on my comp, but that may have just been my replay. I wanna seee DETAILS.
Also, how far along is the sculpt? How much of the detailing is done?
I thought we were seeing a casting of the foo dog. It looked plaster white on my screen, anyway. Therefore, I was thinking that they would be out soon.
They mentioned the tail is missing so I think it still has some work to be done. I’m sure it won’t be very soon.

Due to Melody’s creation process…a white casting means very little about what stage the sculpture is in.
If I’m not mistaken, gypsum castings are made…carved upon or patched to build up or refine areas, then another casting is made so it can be further refined. This process continues until finally there is a version that is the final piece.
Then they make a resin prototype that’s sturdy enough for moldmaking purposes.
Personally….I dunno how she does it, I sculpted using this method for a couple years and it was MURDER on my hands. I wimped out and went back to clay. I prefer softer squishier workin material. 😛
A BIG second on what Drag0n said! Whether it’s one foo dog or a family, I’m very excited either way. I collect foo dogs, so a Windstone one is just a dream come true.
Shishi! This makes me incredibly happy that you are doing shishi! (^_^)/
On the livestream, you mentioned a cub? Is that a separate piece or is that to go under the female’s front paw (the cub represents the cycle of life), as opposed to the ball (temari toy) for the male? Would these two come as a set?
Oh, you asked about the dewclaws on your DA. I’ve seen them with or without and age of the sculpture didn’t seem to be a factor (at least in the ones I’ve seen in my travels). I think it really came down to artistic interpretation and the medium being used (may not always have been able to add a dewclaw). A lot of ancient artistic interpretations aren’t the most anatomically accurate at all times, or some parts are and some parts aren’t. Depends on what you feel like doing! 😀 Also, the female doesn’t always have its mouth open. Depends on the culture they were in (Chinese, vs. Japanese, vs. Tibetan, etc.) as the significance varied slightly.
