Hi all , I’m sitting in a coffee shop using the “public” computer… But I wanted to take time to say Thanks all for the sympathy. The large Winged wolf master(unfinished), the lion Kirin and a nice finished, painted Poad were what was taken, in addition to Chessie’s sketchbook and about five of my sketchbooks (which were mostly full of copies of art work , not originals). JUST IN CASE any one runs across a poad somewhere, that is the only one out in the world rright now. These were taken in Stockton, Ca.

THEY TOOK A POAD!!???!??

How DARE they??? Those are supposed to be for club members only – err…Windstone offices.

Glad to hear that you’re all okay, though.

I second those sentiments…

The SK on the other hand? Think like 22-24 lb cat….plus fur…

Wow! 😯 Thank goodness I can’t afford one – I would have no place to put it! Maybe Melody will make a mini SK someday. 😉

I hope a small cat – not like my 20 pounder! 😯

Think 10-12 lb cat curled up not a fluffy one LoL

I have some of everything, but even my sister has a couple of cat candlelamps. She isn’t into “fantasy”, but loves the lifelike Windstone cats. 😀

Same thing here – I just figured the color difference on my older peacocks was due to age. Some of it is age – the gold is starting to wear off in spots. Anyone else have older pieces? Have they developed “freckles” – small spots of paint loss that can’t be attributed to knocking something into the piece? My black griffin has a few on top of his head.

They call those little specks of missing paint fleabites too.

As far as color aging, I’ve got a brown mother right here for repairs. Her gold paint is pretty well corroded, it gets weird when it’s old, but the brown color is still every bit as bright as the brown fledgeling made just a few months ago. So I don’t think the colors fade, the batches have just changed a bit over the years, I think.

Fleabites – just like on glassware. Thanks for the info! Are you repainting the faded gold? I didn’t attempt to fix my griffin or male peacock dragon yet. I know people have posted what paints to use, etc., so I will fix them one of these days.

Strange…I haven’t noticed that with any of mine, and my green dragon family and brown griffin are both >15 years old. But I’m in California, where its pretty dry, and the temperature in the house is 70-80 year round. What is the humidity and temperature like where you are?

I live in NJ and it can be very humid at times. Where you live sounds much nicer – 70-80 year round.

There are more pearl gryphons, Olimpia made more. I am not sure if they have their eyes and jewels glued in yet, but there are more to buy!

Do you know if they will be put on eBay or sold on this site? I wasn’t a member when the last ones were available, so I don’t know how they were sold last time. Thanks!
They were BIN for $230.00

Thanks Ski~
