I’m sorry the castle is giving you so much trouble and that you don’t feel good on top of it.
I’ve had a bout of that myself. I’ve been on antibiotics in case it thought about turning into pneumonia, and steroids to keep me from having an asthma attack. It took about a week to clear up, and I still cough and have to blow my nose a lot (and it’s been about two weeks now since I got it).
I hope it doesn’t last as long for you. Feel better soon.
Okay, here is the castle with all the repairs finally done…yay! Now to paint it, but progress has been made. The areas circled in yellow are repaired areas, and that is only from this side, there were several more, this just shows the major ones mostly.
The top spiral looks a bit crooked here, but when you turn it to the display side it is straight, I had to live with that, though it bugs, but there was a hole for it to fit in, and it wouldn’t let me make it level in all directions, I tried.
Anyway, I should have this all painted and finished today. Then I can get the rainbows done.

Now you know why I wanted to shoot it…cause the dang thing is tiny.

Wow! That’s a lot more work than I had thought it needed. You are the best, you know! Just awesome. 😀
There! It’s done, it isn’t perfect, but it’s pretty good. I’m not Gary and I just don’t have his skill at carving all those tiny details, but overall I think this came out pretty well.

OKay, today Setsunawolf’s Peacock Kinglet arrived…poor little egg. It looks like some kind of solvent got splashed on it and lifted the paint on the egg, thankfull none got on the dragon. Though he does have a chipped eyelid, why is it that so many of these sculpts get chipped eyelids?
Also, this person had no clue how to pack a Windstone…he was in tissue paper in a huge box with a bunch of newspaper…needless to say he was settled in the bottom corner, and I could feel him moving around when I picked up the box. Thank goodness the kinglet is so compact and doesn’t have much sticking out. He will be double boxed when he goes home, I promise. Oy vey!
Also a Peacock Old Warrior also arrived…I don’t remember if the person is a forum member, but this is the one that was on eBay with the badly chipped up wing. I’ll have to find the email. Okay, I do remember talking to someone about this repair, but I can’t find the PM or email regarding it…so could the person to whom this dragon belongs, please PM me? thanks.

KyrinOh, I saw that one on Ebay. I almost got him but I’d like to find a mint one. Someday…
You do great work. The castle looks amazing.
*Raises hand for the Peacock OW*. We only talked in email about it but I’ve just sent you a PM about it. 🙂

Not sure why, but I locked into the discussion we had about unicorns and forgot about you asking about getting Bluepony’s OW…I’m hopeless…need to make sure I write this stuff on my Windstone Repair list immediately after everything is set.
