So now my hunt for the Black Family is even more important… Must find that male!! Now that he’s even more achievable.
That’s what they were charging NEW, That’s why I just couldn’t afford to buy it with out saving as a teenager just out of high school… And it wasn’t retired? 😯 😕 👿 Oh my God am I gald I missed out on that!!

Ok So I know the canadian dollar is less than the American… But… Well when did the Black Grif Male retire? Because when I was trying to get mine in ’99-2000 the only store that had one was already charging $350. 😯 😕

Also the “Historically Acurate” movies that use horse of modern breeding that have only been around for 100/200 years or isolated completely from that part of the world if they existed longer. Oddly enough Lord of the rings where as a fantasy and in no way “historically acurate” and A Knight’s Tale which kills that title for itself also used horses which were more Contemporary and accurate. 😕
the Movie My Girl is Bridge to Terabithia with out the magic and the boy dying instead of the girl. At least that was my opinion when only a month after reading the book My Girl came out 🙁 I so wished they’d kept the magic!! So I’m planning on getting the Terebitha Movie when it comes out on video!! 🙂
~We’ve tried a few different approches: We’ve tried a cast-in-place foam core..disaster.
*Giggle* I imagined a free floating foam mold for this finding it’s way against the outside of the mold and making the dragon part foam!
~Our biggest problem is that we just have no time to work on it! We will figure it out eventually, and your ideas are welcome, Thank you so much for thinking about this!
Hopefully the more ideas you have the better chance of finding a few minutes(Yeah I know it takes more than just a few =P) to try out the ideas. And no worries Melody I have WAYYYYYYYYYYyyyyyyyy too much time to contemplate my navel, so this is much better use of my time!!
Didn’t know if I should just PM you or post a topic on it for you Melody, so definitly no offense to discovering this topic not in existence. We don’t know what you’ve attempted yet insofar as the “Hollow” cores for the SK’s but I had a thought, actually severral, some of which I believe have been mentioned elsewhere on the forum.
Wouldn’t a hollow core lend itself to a far greater chance of major shipment damage?
How about a “Foam” core instead, I don’t know if this would be possible since I don’t know what the molding process exactly takes. I know some materials when setting would just eat through the foam, if not earlier as in the pouring. But there are also multiple diferent “Foam” compounds available so that maybe one of them might work.
My main idea was of a pre-formed foam core blob suspended inside the mold as the sculpture is hardening around it.
Maybe if you find the right foam it may also cut down on the drying time aswell.
Just a thought to try and help you guys out. I know we all want SK’s asap. And again don’t know what you may have tried already. Hopefully though we forum members may be able to give you a few new ideas to try, I’ve grown up seeing first hand that sometimes it’s that fresh perspective that helps.
I would, but My mom would have to drive out here to get hers, I’m not paying to send it out again 😈 Wonder how much it would cost to get 3 shippped 🙂 and there in by I very muchly would like more than 1 production colour, since that’s how the male and I tell our’s apart.
No wonder it’s THAT heavy 😯 …………… Wonder if I’ll ever have the money to get myself one far less my Male a second and my Mom a third! 😉
