    This one doesn’t look like an infringement to me either – did John get back you?

    Yes he did. He said that he didn’t think it was an infringement, but that he wasn’t totally sure and would take a better look today. He did say however, that it was at inspired by them.

    I think it looks like a cross between the Grand Unicorn and the Unicorn Gargoyle, myself…

      I want to thank all of you that wrote to this seller about her selling fakes. She had already reworded the auction and then revised it again and then changed the title leaving the words windstone and pena out of the auction completely. She had already put a disclaimer on it. She was finally so mad saying that I singed all my forum member pals on her–(I DID NOT) that she pulled the auction. Lastly she accused me of buying this piece on purpose just to cause her trouble and to protect windstone. She just kept saying is that why you did it? This lady will truly never get me. It ticks me off whenever someone steals a artists hard work. Whether it’s first hand or 2nd hand theft its wrong. But she thinks it isn’t. I say I am non combative because I am unless someone pushes me to it or I have a very strong belief like I do on this one. Also I did not want to bother John, that man has enough to do. But I must say with everyone’s help here I did not need to. So thanks to all. Sincerely, Evelyn Lazere

        I found this on ebay and emailed John about it.

        http://www.ebay.com/itm/WINDSTONE-EDITIONS-MALE-FANTASY-DRAGON-FIGURINE-STATUE-/121270267956?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c3c457034

        I am not sure if it is a fake or repainting on an existing Windstone. But I don’t think the greens ever had that much orange and red on them.

        Looking for-
        red fire young dragon
        old animal line frog, wolf, barn owl, tortoise, tiger cub

          He’s real. However, someone did do a nasty partial repaint of his chest and claws for some odd reason. Old greens don’t have pinkish-red chests or claws.

            I think the repainter may have been trying to make him look bloody? looks like they attacked his hip a little bit too….

              Hey Evelyn.. I know I’m late to the party, but personally I thought your relist warning other potential buyers was a hoot ^_^ I love your “in your face” nature and how you will immediately call people on their crap. There may be better ways to handle things privately, but sometimes you need to make things public to be heard by the masses and protect other collectors.

              Got a busted Windstone?

                This one is so bad that it’s almost not worth noting (and, after all there are only so many ways to depict a unicorn but …Really…?) Just putting it up here for a laugh…

                http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NTE1WDUwMA==/z/xfgAAOxyGqZSZkF0/$(KGrHqF,!jUFE0ss8iFfBSZkF0M52w~~60_12.JPG

                And, no, I have not e-mailed John.

                  I don’t think that one is an infringement. It just looks like a rearing unicorn. 🙂

                    This image looks awfully familiar (and appears to be a known problem) …

                    Have sent the link to John anyway.

                      Ugh, the horn on that thing is ghastly. Looks like a pretty definite fake to me.

                          ew…looks like they went “okay, let’s just change Windstone’s design just a little, um add some more mane and tail hair and oh a really ugly horn!”

                            I’ve seen the fake unis before. They don’t happen as often as fake dragons though.
