      I want to call this color “Ivory” but there are weird restrictions about calling anything “ivory” on ebay,
      so he got called “Meerschaum”.
      This one is antiqued with black, but I think a lighter, browner antique might look nicer.
      Thank you! I am glad you like him!

        I just love it, but I tend to like “simple” colors. I don’t think it resembles the whites at all. It’s a nice antique (as in old) look.

          White dragons were metallic pearl and metallic gold. Meerschaum is a flat white. Being of a whitish color is their only similarity, but that will be true of any white-themed dragon 🙂 We have had color schemes before that were much more similar to each other.

            I like it too, and on first look I thought of the wedding cake dragons. I think because it’s also a matte white. If the accents were silver the resemblance would be even more striking.

            Edit: I just looked at the wedding cake male next to the meerschaum fledgling and they not really that similar. The fledgling is more ivory white while I would say the male is more chalky.

              Nope. The whites have this pearly, goldish look even, whereas this little guy is more like ivory.

                The only thing keeping me from bidding on him is how heavy the black antiquing is. I love love love any light-colored dragons with dark antiquing because then you can really see all the wonderful detail in the dragons. 🙂 But this is just too much of a good thing for me on Meerschaum.

                I hope you’ll do more light colored dragons with dark antiquing like this in the future. I love how striking they turn out that way!
