Thanks a bunch for making a concise list of all the dates, Blackdesertwind! That’s easy reference.
One question for the generality. Somebody was born in the Chinese year of the metal rooster? How do you know which material your critter is made of?I have a book somewhere… but you can check here. Technically, I’m a Yin Metal Rooster 😀
And Akeyla & Lokie may want to clarify their birthdates. They’re listed twice… does that mean they’re twice as old? 😉
I rather like my scars now, but here’s how I got ’em:
1) 2-3 weeks before 2nd grade, I was running in a new friend’s backyard and must’ve tripped or something… but I went flying face first into the corner of the brick by their door. I don’t know if I would’ve gotten stitches because my parents didn’t bother taking me anywhere. But I’m missing 1/3 of my right eyebrow because of it.
2) In the 5th grade my face had an intimate meeting with gravel. I was riding my bike on base, on this little gravel hill that ran along side the road. Every so often, there was a dip, and they were fun to ride through… but I got to one that was a little two short, my front tire caught, I flipped over the handlebars… and landed face first on gravel, with 102 lbs of me bearing down as I slid. The colonel’s wife who called for an ambulance probably thought a kid got hit by a car or something, with how I screamed. No stiches, but they did call in a plastic surgeon to see if he’d need to repair the hole in my nostril (it healed fine).
I dunno what was worse though. The actual accident, or them using a wire scrub brush on my newly raw face to get the gravel out.
My face is proof of an active childhood. There’s more than a dozen noticeable scars on the right side, and most aren’t coverable with makeup.
Hmm.. less exciting… I tore the meniscus in my knee during softball (made it worse by playing again about 2 weeks later), twisted my ankle during recess soccer… but nothing broken yet! *knocks on wood* We’ll see if that holds true for long, playing rollerderby and all… 🙄

Purely out of malicious evil personal entertainment, far less any other reason. 😈 Don’t worry I wouldn’t even if I knew them in life, because in most of the countries and cultures on this planet(if not all) that is a No-No, and I have to follow the local laws Legally, socially, and culturally of where ever I am.
Well, Nebraska doesn’t have a subway system, but I’m only 30 mins away by car…. 😈
But I like my car… and I dislike Lincoln even more than Omaha, so… 🙄
But yeah, wow… what a jerk.purplecat wrote:I saw that one and totally agree. Did anyone see the one with the ninja chipmunk?
The ninja chipmunk like “I’m crazy acrobat chipmunk, don’t mess with me!”

I think this person toments their pets. They have a lot of unhappy animals.
I think that particular person is stupid. One, they’re provoking the cat and causing it an enormous amount of stress… and I hope that cat clawed the crap out of them.Two, on their first video of that cat that (posted in October), they said it had attacked their newborn daughter twice, and they MAY have to get rid of it. WTF is wrong with people? It’s attacking your NEWBORN?! Oh hell no, that cat would be gone before it had the chance to do it a second time. And then to still have it and be posting video 7 months later?
No idea. But I saw these last night. If you’re interested in that rising spectral, I’d ask them what color it’s for. They don’t actually specify.
It just doesn’t feel right when they knowingly use pics of the wrong color on an auction. They use an emerald lap photo for a peacock auction: “Same as in photo except in Peacock.” Granted, they do tell you… but if you’re using stock pics, why not use the right one? 😕
Looks like they haven’t sold anything for about a year… but keplilly bought a dragon from them last July, so I would assume they’re okay.

Watch for pix. the two buckskins are finished, and the bay for eBay will be done tonight. Due to prior obligations, the others probably won’t get done til Sunday/Monday.I thought I’d have a chance to re-offer this, since hubby’s leaving for 2 weeks on Sunday, but someone just offered me a killer deal to paint up 5 model horses for her, so this deal-other than the uni’s that are on the way-is now offically closed for at least 3 weeks. But, I’ll post all the ones that I get to put on eBay 😀
And that made post # 666 for you 😈 I had to laugh.
Hehe, looks like a girly FrostFire, minus stripes.
Very nice though. When I get caught up on some things and get some cash, I’m gonna see about asking for a commission 😀
Ooh, I know that’s just a test paint, but he’s pretty! I love that there’s more color on his wings and extra color on the throat. I don’t care for the gold-tipped hind feet, but I don’t think I’d like them white like the other griff. It’s nice to have a touch of color down there though.
I’m definitely going to get the male and the sitting chick (all the sitting poses are my faves), but I’m sure the female and other chick will be lovely too. I really like the griffs, but I haven’t decided if I truly want all the mamas and crouching chicks or if I’m okay just having them in pearl. It probably depends how many things are going to be out at once (how big the flood gets) 😕 I can buy some Wellies, but I can’t afford a boat.

That’s very cool! I have an original Glory packed away at my mom’s house, and some pearly baby version too. Your uni would be neat with the symbol too 😀
Very pretty! The colors look so delicate. I really like the matching gold hooves and the non-horse coloring. 😀

I think that’s a pretty reasonable cost for something that nicely detailed. Especially when you see crappy little pewter figures like this that cost about as much. (I have that dragon piece thanks to my mom; I really don’t like it). I’m not a huge fan of most knight stuff, but that one is nice.
