Press charges, press charges! This nut job knows no limits. He got arrested again just after being released and was looking for you!!!!!!!!! Didn’t dawn on him he could be arrested again; just didn’t care and that’s scary! 😮 Your personally safety is at stake and yeah, working at another store would help!
So sorry this happened to you! You need a break from the weirdos and crap going on around you!
Oh no, Maplecarver, I didn’t take your post to be preachy or a long lecture. This is what I am looking for–advice in any shape or form. You made some excellent comments–personally, I may have overreacted to what I was doing–couldn’t see the complete picture. Artists can do that–I’m learning to. Just saw what I felt was a hideous color and wanted to do something about it–NOW!
It’s still salvageable, but I need to sit down and look at it more. Work on it little by little. In time, I’ll post the pictures so you guys can really give me advice. Might just get a cheapie camera–cutting us another day at work so I have to nix trying to get a real nice one. And No, I personally don’t worry about people hijacking my thread–this is what this forum is all about. Makes me feel good to see other people’s minds wander like mine! LOL!
With an extra day being cut I’ll have more time to paint this thing and make it look like something! 😀
I’m looking at this grif again, after I gave myself a little facial, took a shower and washed my hair and I think it has some potential. It has light blue eyes and for some reason that light bronze copper look just didn’t look like a nice contrast. Maybe I should have left it that color and dry brushed more browns–I don’t know–it just didn’t look good at all to me. The brown with the blue eyes looks better, but I’m going to leave it alone until next weekend. So on a hurl scale of 1 to 10, it’s now about a 6 :puke: One thing, Windstone doesn’t have to worry about me painting my pyos to look like their sculpts! But I feel soooooo sorry for the person that will have me painting their pyo in the upcoming swap. 😥
Well I finished a Muse and thought I’d try my hand at one of the PYO griffins I have on hand. Wanted to keep it simple since this is my first time painting one of these. Well….I can’t post pictures, and just as well, because it would upset you all to see such pyo abuse! Wanted to paint this thing in browns, neutral colors so what could go wrong? Well I strated off with a coat that looked something like a bronze tan and it looked sort of cool….well not the next day it didn’t. Then I mix some brown and lightened it a bit and painted the feather areas with this–a little better but the poor thing looks like I dipped it in copious amounts of poo! 😮 Maybe it’s my state of mind–one of my birds (Meyers parrot) got smarter than her own good and undid one of the hooks for her toys (forget what you call them, but they screw close) and got it caught in her beak–underneather her beak! So got her dislogged, called the vet for advice and it seems things are okay but she is still quite stressed and is hiding in her little hide-away. Thought I’d paint to de-stress—-wrong!!!! I think my Muse turned out better and that’s not saying much! I put the dixie cup they send with the Muse over the griffins head so it wouldn’t glare at me–who could blame it.
Well Windstone warns you that these things aren’t easy to paint. The contrast of the darker brown with that coppery bronze color looks all right–for now anyway. Like putting darker poo over the light poo and maybe some sparkles on top stand back and admire. Yeah, right! :negative:
Well I guess I’ll take a shower and wash my hair–stink in more ways than one right now! Whenever I get a camera I’ll post the pictures–the good(yeah right), the bad(oh yes) and the ugly (definitely)![sigh] 🙄
XD XD XD That was halirous! There was a story that was sent me about a man testing out a zapper he got for his wife on his thigh. Pretty much the same results. XD XD
I get torn here–if I’ve already got an item and buy another just to sell it back, at store price plus my shipping and to ship it where ever, to whoever is constantly missing them; BUT….I also want to honor the store’s request of one per customer—then if I did purchase one, I could be snatching it out of the cart of someone who really wants one and keeps missing them! I know the feeling of missing things and I know the feeling of having things snatched right from under my nose! [sigh] :shrug:
HeeHeee! Get a kick out of drag0n’s sixth sense in regards to Windstones! XD
Money trees and money from just hitting rocks with shovels–we can dream can’t we. If that were so, we’d be killers on ebay and Windstone would be absolutely rich!!! Then they’d be able to go into full production of the pieces we wanted….so on and so forth….we can dream, we can always dream! 😀
Yes, all sorts of people are having a hard time right now. So good to see something good. Oh, I saw a post from one of the boys of twindragonsmom in the ‘Ask Melody’ section under ‘more Poads’ and one of them requested she paint a Poad with racing stripes! I laughed because that was so cute! Check it out when you get a chance–brought a smile to my face! 😀

*begins to breathe regularly again*So glad you got one! It can be so frustrating to be waiting and waiting for an item only to miss out on them when they do come out. Yay**does Forest Gump dance with WindstoneCollector* 😀
