Now, I was hoping to find the black/gold ones, but….peacock variations are also a favorite of mine (I love purple and green together) and I quickly learned that any Windstone dragon is far more stunning in person than what you see in pictures. This pretty boy’s blends of purple, blue, and green hues were singing out to me… “Yes, I’ve been here all this time, and I’m waiting for YOU!”
Oh, yes — I know exactly how you feel!
I just ordered my first em-pea piece, a Lap Dragon, about a week ago, and when she came out of the box I nearly stopped breathing – SO much more beautiful than any picture! I was expecting something nice, but her colors just blow me away when they’re actually before my eyes. Wow. The depth and the metallic sheen! The blending, and the way the blues and greens both complement and blend!
This has happened to me before, too — I saw a Gold Mother at the Denvention vendor room and wanted to take her home on the spot she was so pretty. (The male, next to her, didn’t draw me nearly as strongly, though; it was something about the colors/shading on that particular sculpt that took it from “nice” to “Wow, want!”)
