Wow, some of the collections I see on here are absolutley amazing !! All the beautiful pieces !! Makes my collection look very meager and plain…. oh well, thought I would share anyways 🙂
Im sorry this has happened to you skeeterdee. If something happened on the forum that discouraged me from posting my pics, I would also be very upset, as like yourself, nobody around me really takes any interest in my collection either. I do hope this can somehow be rectified, so you can continue posting your pics.
I love seeing everyones pics, as I am also newer to Windstones, and it still blows my mind on some of the beauties that exist out there that I never knew of. I love admiring them on here! And I love sharing my passion for them on here ! Its the only place I can feel understood 😉
As others have mentioned, in a way you can take this as a huge compliment on your pieces, since they are so sought after ! I myself have never been messaged regarding any of my pieces. I do understand though how stressful it must be if people are being persistent or make you feel bad about turning them down 🙁 I really dont think people should be messaging others regarding pics they have posted unless the post specifically says “may be willing to part with…” . Calling some pieces your “favs” should have been enough info to inform others you were really not willing to part with said pieces.
I originally bought some larger brushes, when I first got my supplies for starting PYO’s. Most of these have never been used, as like you, I use mostly small brushes on my Windstones 🙂
Thanks for the tips, seems like Royal and Langnickle are popular 🙂
Are these the Royal brushes you mean? : http://www.stockade.ca/Brushes_c_30890-1-3.html
Ok thanks 😉 And I was thinking of the markers for details OVER other paint, so maybe then it would work ok?
Oh, I should also add on these details about the markers :
“Professional Level Paint
Spectrum: 50 Colors
Properties: Highly Pigmented, Water-based Acrylic
Finish: Satin
Nibs: 2mm chisel nib (line width 2-4mm) and 15mm nib (line width 8-15mm). Replacement nibs are available”It would be a shame if people don’t post because they don’t want to be bothered, I miss the days where the show off threads were booming with pages upon pages of pictures! They’re so fun to look through, I think 🙂
This is a new wolf to the thread 🙂 He just came in yesterday (a few days late! lil snot! haha) from a trade 🙂 and I am head over heels in love! I was originally going to wait for my second wolf to arrive before posting but I’m too excited about this guy, hehe 🙂 It’s a snowy day, so he decided to continue to hang out with the foxies for his photo shoot, hehe
and with my Odd Ball fox 🙂 (and a couple matching fennecs chillin on their book in the background! hehe)
This guy is gorgeous ! Congrats !!
I personally LOVE posting photos, since here at home I almost never get to show my collection to anyone, and those that do see it dont take much interest. So I have to share my new babies with people that can appreciate them 😉 I only ever had one offer to buy a windstone that I had posted a pic of, and they were very kind about it when I politely declined. Since I was new here, they even gave me some tips and told me to never feel bad on turning down a trade, and to never let anyone bully me or guilt trip me into a trade. I didnt even realize things like this may occur, so I was happy to get the advice, but thank goodness it has never happened. I hate feeling bad saying no to someone.
I normally wont message anyone for a trade on a pic they posted unless they specifically say in the post that they are open to trades. Most people will say one way or the other, if its a keeper or not, so people ‘should’ know when not to ask. If someone is not sure they are going to keep a piece, then Id assume its ok to ask them as well, just to see if what you offer speaks to them or not 😉 No harm in asking. So far I have found everyone here to be very kind and pleasant to deal with, so I dont see why people would not post pics, thats if they are able to 😛
Very adorable !! I adore guinea pigs 🙂 I notice you have grass in with them, the one I had when I was a kid loved grass 😉 When anyone would go down the stairs to where she was kept she would squeal and go on, as she was all excited thinking she was getting grass!
The one I had was all black, and he name was Pansy 🙂 I didnt know she was a girl, until I came home from school one day and she had 3 babies in with her !! Man were they ever adorable !
What did you name these cuties?
Oh no, thats awful Ela ! I cant imagine something unexpected happening like that, and having to be out of work for that long. You are lucky though that you can do most of your work from home, and hopefully it works out that you can do this in the end.
Here’s hoping you have a speedy recovery and that everything goes smoothly as possible for you.
