That’s interesting, because all three of my green dragons vary quite a bit in their shades of green. Not that I mind! π
March 8, 2008 at 11:24 pm #672830I agree with Stephanie, there’s so much variation in the color scheme that there would be no need to try for ‘exact’ matches. My fledge doesn’t even look like the same basic colorjob as my original trio.
Seems there are more old green fans out there than anyone may realize- look how quickly the curls sold out, second batch even. Other curl colors often seem to hang out longer. And the squeaking for fledges!
I have a bottle of Golden paint ‘Green Gold’ that looks to be a decent match for the yellowy green base coat on my older dragons. I haven’t looked for (or made) a match on the darker green dorsal color, but I bet Kyrin or someone knows a fair match for it. π :squeak: *need praying emoticon*
March 8, 2008 at 11:32 pm #672831I agree with pipsxlch, the original old greens did have a wide variety of colorations. I’ve seen at least 3 so far on the male alone, and the same for the mother/hatching. Besides I’d buy any old green dragon that would get released, I love it ^.^
March 8, 2008 at 11:58 pm #672832The first old greens differed from the more current ones because Windstone changed paint brands. I think that’s where I got it in my head that they discontinued the paint- the very original old green paint I think was discontinued, so they switched to Golden (where they custom mix colors for Windstone).

My art: featherdust.comMarch 9, 2008 at 4:07 am #672833I really would love an OW in the Old Green, especially with the orange highlights . . . although I’d take one without if need be. I have a feeling that demand will be greater than supply, but that would be one of those pieces that would have me glued to the Store page in hopes of being fast enough to get one. π

Yeah, that’s what has me worried too. π I’m at my computer all day long, but it seems each and every time old green is released I’m at school and miss them completely. It’s my fav colour too. If I miss any old green OWs I’m going to be Q_Q over here.
March 10, 2008 at 2:50 pm #672835I’m always gone too when it’s something I really want…*grrrrr* πΏ
March 10, 2008 at 4:04 pm #672836I’m worried the same thing. I’m the one who said an old green OW was a grail dragon. And seriously, I wonder what I can do to ensure I can have a shot at one. There probably won’t be but a few, and between the seem-fairly-numerous old green lovers and gotta-get-them-all OW lovers… π
March 10, 2008 at 6:25 pm #672837It just kinda sucks cuz there won’t be Laps and all of the sculpts, like the rest of the colors…Darnit! I had to pick one of the next to worst colors to like the best! (Besides the Brown Emp I been dying to catch ahold of… π )
March 10, 2008 at 6:55 pm #672838March 10, 2008 at 9:14 pm #672839I agree, WSC. Except for the next-to-worst color to like part- I think it’s the worst! At least brown emps exist and there’s a however remote chance of getting one- like you said, old green is the one color that will never get to be on all the sculpts *cry*. And it’s the only color I really truly love. π₯
Hush, DM! *waves wet spaghetti noodle threateningly* 10 on eBay would be great for Windstone no doubt, but think of how fine 25 in the store would be for all of us! π

Why 25, they could do 50 so we all have a better chance of getting one xDMarch 11, 2008 at 12:08 am #672841 -
