      I’m actually not 100% sure if he’s the new brown or the old! He’s very bright colored, but he has no felt pad, just a stamp on the bottom.

      Anyhow, he had three chips, several paint rubs, and a bunch of spots where the chips and other paint rubs had been touched up with huge blobs of HORRIBLE paint that didn’t match at all, so I ended up not just touching up spots, I repainted several large chunks of his tail. It was a pain! I also refreshed all of his gold detailing, as it was oxidized and funky looking.

      On very close inspection you can tell he’s not mint, but unless you look close, no flaws are visible.

      With repaired areas circled:

      http://bladespark.topcities.com/fixmale4.jpg (Horn was a hideous paint job, painted over right. Knee and spot on tail were paint rubs.)

      http://bladespark.topcities.com/fixmale5.jpg (Claw and one scale next to it on the foot were chipped, tail further down was chipped, and all of that was painted over with huge gobs of icky paint. Smaller area on the tail was a paint rub.)

      http://bladespark.topcities.com/fixmale6.jpg (Lower tail area was another extensive gob of ick.)

      Somebody make me an offer. I haven’t seen a brown male on ebay for a while, so I’m not really sure what they’re going for right now.

          You did another great job of patching up a dragon, SPark. He looks good as new.

                Mwa ha ha ha!

                If I don’t get a good offer in the next day or so, he’s probably going on ebay, I think.

                #538876

                Wow, he looks great! Hmmm, I don’t have one of them yet…but I have no idea on the worth.

                While hiding somewhere in my head I'm on the lookout for white oriental dragons! Please let me know if you know of any available. Thank you!

                      How much do you hope to get for him? He is really pretty.

                      #538880

                      I’ve always wanted a male, and the browns have always been my favorite, though I don’t own any… how much are you hoping for? =)

                        I have a hard time setting prices! I mean… the mint one on ebay now is $200+ which is obviously pretty ridiculous. And he’s not mint… but he’s almost perfect… dunno, I’d like to get $100, but I don’t know if that’s fair.

                        Maybe I should just stick him on ebay and let whoever wants him fight it out.

                          Put him on Ebay. You will get a fair amount and you won’t feel bad if you think you charged too much!
