If you are in the swap and haven’t painted your swap piece yet, then no painting unicorns! *stern look*
Swap piece first, then as a reward, you can paint the uni.
*teasing grin*

Hey now… what if the Unicorn IS my PYO swap piece… HUM???? 😆
And if I do them in similar colors then Ic an do them together… 😆 Don’t worry… I have plans! 😈

Time is ticking, there are only 3 weeks left folks, better get to painting!
Darn procrastinators! 😆 😆 😆
Kyrin
Not procrastinating, trying to deal with all the other @#$% going on in life 😀 Would rather be painting…..
I echo that sentiment…
Life really bites at the moment… and BELIEVE me… it’s been so bad that I’ve contemplated quitting work and painting full time…
Then reality sits in and I remember what kind of money situation I’m in…
With any luck this weekend will FINALLY be productive for my PYO swap. 😀 I am trying! 😀

Same here! Take your time! I need a couple of those Poads… but dang it I have no money!
Please wait till i have money! 😆
Oh I can NEVER have too many horses!
And especially that guy and the Donkeys… I have 19 of the rearing horse (Silver is his name) and 24 or so of the Donkey… 😆
NEVER enough! 😀
Let’s see…
Well… I collect, obviously, Windstones. 😀
And then there’s my main hobby, model horses! here are pics of them in their new room since I moved…
And here are some more creative pics of my “Conga line” of Silvers. The day I took these, is the day I added 5 more to it… including one that was very randomly inserted into boxes… stores didn’t even know if they MIGHT get one… and mine did! 😀 That one is the Black one with a white mane and tail! Oh I love him!
Then there are my various collections of DVDs and books… (books can be broken up into collections based on my fav authors… Books on horses…Movie art books… books on mythology and fantasy… as well as Children’s picture books.)
and you have my Diecast cars from the movie CARS…
Various other action figures… mostly from movies… etc…
One thing I’ve noticed… once you start collecting… you just KEEP collecting! 😆 And it generally doesn’t matter what! If you have one collection… you tend to branch out and have others too!

Melody wrote:I should mention here that cats will also EAT Windstones. Honest!
We have had several dragons returned to us that have had their noses chewed right off! It doen’t hurt the cats any, but that kind of damage is way harder to repair that a simple break. Cats are so weird.You know… on that Emerald Fledgeling… I could have SWORN I had more, larger pieces of him… and they DISAPPEARED!!! Literally I had them behind him on the mantel… kept thinking I should take them down and put them in a baggie… but I didn’t and then when I did go to take it down and put it in a baggie they were gone!
I just assumed the cats played with them and knocked them down onto the floor… but I never found them…
GAH cats eat WINDSTONES! 😯 bizarre!!!!
Yeah… it was the Fledgeling that killed me.. Rocky nearly lost his life over that…
That piece had been the ONLY piece that hadn’t been chipped or broken in some way… the only surviving piece from my collecting days 10 yrs ago… AND she was my fav… I loved the color… loved the sculpture… ::sobs:: And she was a birthday present to represent my birthstone (emerald)
But… Rocky broke her…
I really need to send her off to Whippet… 🙁
Ok… I’m going to be really bad and steal Bluepony’s idea here… (Yell at me if I’m overstepping bounds here Jessica! :lol:)
but I’m DESPERATE for mroe PYO Unicorns… I have way too many ideas for them… and absolutely NO fundage for more than the one I ordered yesterday ATM…
So… like her… I would like to make you all this offer…
I will GLADLY paint a Unicorn PYO for you… in exchange for a blank PYO Unicorn.
Now what I’m thinking… I will trade ONE painted PYO Unicorn for ONE Black PYO Unicorn… if you color choice is solid… with minimal white markings.
More complicated colors… paints… appaloosas… or anything wild and requiring a lot of detail… I’d ask for TWO Blank PYO Unicorns…
For those of you who aren’t familiar with my Custom model horses… here’s the link to my webshots:
http://community.webshots.com/user/desertsunstudios
I work in pastels… and I can do just about any equine color under the sun! If you see anything in my webshots that you would like on a PYO Unicorn… LMK! I can do it! 😀 I can also spice them up with some color, metallics, etc! 😀
Please contact me with your color ideas… and we can discuss other details further. 😀
I think at this time… because I’m crunched between now and NAN (North American Nationals… the big Model horse show… I’m actually getting to go and compete!!! YAY!) at the end of this month… I’ll have to say that your PYOs should be completed by the end of July…. ::hopes!::
Also, at this time I think I only feel comfortable taking on 2… with the possibility of more when I get back from NAN. 😀
I’m just so uber excited about this little mare… I REALLY want to paint a ton of them… I’m hoping that it will encourage me to paint other things I need to work on… 😆
If there are a lot of you who are really wanting me to paint a Unicorn for you… I’ll create a list… take the two ideas randomly off of the list… and paint them first. But I’ll keep that list and attempt to get through them in a timely manner. 😆
If you are willing to wait as long as it may take me to get to your Unicorn (within reason of course!) Please LMK that too! ^.^
LMK what you guys think! 😀
Yipes… I hope she does pop back… I need to send my Emerald Fledgeling and Peacock Father to her! 😯
I hope everything’s ok with her!!!

I don’t care how much I would love a pet… breaks something of mine, it gets beat or thrown outside, or given away… or all three.
Unfortunately… cats like high places… my cats in particular like windows too… the way my new mantel is… it’s flanked by two windows… about 4 ft from the ground… IDEAL places for cats to try to get to…
Sadly… with the Windstones up there… the smaller, more bumpable/moveable ones… are the ones that suffered… Though I’m still trying to work out how the FATHER dragon got knocked off!
But regardless… I have had cats FAR longer than Windstones… and I love them to much to beat them within an inch of their lives (much as I threaten and would LIKE to…) so… yeah… they stay… and I repair my Windstones…
Thankfully I’m learning to be a good restoration artist too… but some cases…
I’m just not that good! 😯
