My first pyo Kirin– oooohhhh :) AUCTION ends today!

[Taneea]

My Pleasure! I love reading them…that is my faveorite part of your auctions LOL!! NOT that I dont absolutely LOVE your PYOs, but I think that is such a unique Idea and I agree with you on the whole “Everyone has a Story” When I paint them, Like the one I am doing now…this wolf was SUPPOSED to look like the “Zelda” wolf from the new game….BUT he ended up looking Native American LOL…SO I am going with that, and also going to be putting “special” stuff on him to make it look more “REAL” if you will. I cant wait to post him for everyone to see! But…PLEASE dont stop the stories I LOVE them! 😉 OR at least email them to me if you decide to stop putting them on Ebay 😀 <–*cheezy grin*

I tried the advice and used a solid white background– and tried to reflect some of the natural sun light.
Changed them in the auction too.

OoOo!!!! I LIKE those MUCH better, not that the other ones were bad, but you can see the front REALLY good now 😉

They are better pictures. I just wish I could see the belly scales better. The pictures make the belly look rough almost. Is the belly all gold?
Also, the background is showing a reflection of the kirin.
He is really cute. I like the jade color. What brand of paint do you use?

[mipa]

I use so many different kinds of paint I couldn’t even list them all! Pretty much any paint they sell at micheals craft store! folk art/delta/apple barrel/premiere(I use a lot of this) just to name a few
The belly scales are meant to look rough– but they are smooth to touch– and the gold leaf is verigated (sp?)- it is primarily gold with silver/copper/blue/green/purple colored leaf also mixed in.
I’ll try to get just a belly shot.
Hope that helps!

Much better! You might add that to the auction!
It’s an interesting concept. Is it actual leaf?

[Alyssa]

See what? hehe. 😆 Actually, I can see the colors in the other pics.

[mipa]

yes it is actual leaf- a very fun technique… although a bit time consuming a first until you get the hang of it.
glad you can see it now!

hmmm…try again. It seems to be working now. 😕

I know I am supposed to post from now on- auction stuff in the flea market– but this thread was already made so I figured this would be fine– My auction ends today and I just wanted to remind everyone– I just hate getting those emails–
“I meant to bid but forgot”
I get them alot too!
So just a reminder!
