      Just received a dragon that a merchant, not knowing any better had put a price sticker on the belly of an oriental. While I managed to careful remove the sticker that was left after they had removed it, there is still some sticky glue on it. This is much worse then a dust problem as trying to remove the glue might remove the paint.
      Anyone have any ideas, I have some but want a few more ideas before I try anything.

      Thanks.

            There is a photo gallery called Windstone House of Horrors where people have been posting their Windstones that were damaged because of poor packaging for shipping.
            http://windstoneeditions.com/category/image-galleries/windstone-house-horors

            Went there and wow, what damage. However I do not know how or just can not add to it so here are a few of mine:

            Red Lap broken claw 5
            Red Lap chip-wrong color 1
            Red Lap chipped wing
            Emerald Scratcher broken claw 7
            Green Lap Broken & Chipped 1
            Green Lap Broken & Chipped 4
            Green Lap Broken & Chipped 12

              $1,300 a month for health insurance, $5k in deductible, 20% after that, $35 to say boo to the doc and $55 if he is special. Plus the medicine they prescribe.
              And I am a non-worker due to injury which I do not get money for and to old to start with my limitations.

              And to make matters even worse then that:
              I am 92 pieces short of having all the production dragons Windstoone has made!!!
              TERRIBLE…(runs off screaming in madness)…Where do I find all of these beautiful dragons, where oh where!!!

                For the money you paid of course look at it. I am not saying to do anything else. I know several people that once they get certain ones do not like them as much as they thought. Even kitties, not as sorry as I am a cat lover as well but like mine life and purring most like the one at my feet right now.
                Hope you enjoy all you get as I know how hard the artisans work but yep not room for all of them, at least not yet. I am trying though but need to finish the dragons and Unicorns first, and not just the OOAK’s.
                Hope all this came out the way it was suppose to, no offense is intended and no pressure assumed.
                Enjoy

                  And here is the Car he is inspired by:

                  Roush 427R Dragon car 10
                  Roush 427R dragon car 1
                  Roush 427R dragon car 4

                  Here is my latest Roulette commission that I have finished!! I’m calling this one Rain this pretty guy is for Dragon61 :3

                  I don’t do many single color paint jobs so this was a definite change for me I’m really happy with how it turned out :D. I used interference green on the lightest of the blues it shows up really well only at certain angles which is perfect!
                  I also used some orange interference on the neck and back scales to give a little more of a pop :D.

                    Do you have one of the babies?

                    Yes we have Black Gold #1 and Black Sea #1. That is the reason we would have liked the Father Black Rose #1 (and the wife that collects these says he is beautiful).

                      The baby for these two was the first one to come out. It was the Black Gold Ki-Rin. Not to be confused with the same blackgold of the dragons. So any others are different. Of course not sure how a black rose and a black sea make a black gold offspring but I am not complaining that it did.

                        Hmm a maid for a week if she needs laundry done, as well as a few other chores. How about a trip to Hawaii, if I go what is an extra ticket or two for such a grand group of people. Would love to take you all but not sure even my wallet could do that right now after the 19k in the last month an a half on your wonderful product. Hard to have been out of touch and then suddenly try to complete it. My first pieces were the original 12 dragons back in 1990 as a wedding present from my wife. We picked up a few more pieces but alas had to put them in storage until recently and now are putting them on their own display wall, some 121+ pieces just in dragons and have a few flapcats and griffins and her Unicorns of course. An amazing collection from an amazing group of people. You all are wondrous for doing so many for so many in 20+ years of work.
                        Thanks is not enough nor are any other words that can be put to print. But know it is from the heart, THANKS!

                          And I love the way he turned out. It is beautiful and a great match for my car. He will sit next to the small version of my Roush when it is done. That way I will always be able to see them together. Great work.

                              Absolutely beautiful, and cry that I do not have extras either as I need both. Hope you find the ones you are looking for.

                                I do not know if anyone had done a cheetah, but since they were doing so many tiger types, one of my favorite animals by the way, might as well ask for my favorite animal do be done up, a cheetah.

                                Also and I it is not yours, at least I do not think so and that is a Lichen color on any dragon. It is up I know, but situation is strange I am not going to get it. But if more were done, wow colorful to say the least, and I love blue followed by green and that has them.

                                  Most Californians do not know how to react either, they get scared it is the big one or just stand around. Both of which are wrong, I laugh at the first, a little. Lived most of my life in California, biggest one being the 1989 quake. My co-worker admitted she was afraid of quakes. Nut she held it together for the keys we were watching at after school program.
                                  Anything less then a 4.0 is just a large truck to me.
                                  I always hope no one is hurt and sorry when damage happens. I was lucky in the 1989 quake only damage was from things “walking” off the shelves on a wall parallel to the quake so it rolled back and forth, poor cat scared out of her mind and hid under bed, was scared for weeks on aftershocks and whenever a large truck came by.
                                  Hang in their all.
