*drags self back to the board* I’m alive! I swear!

Okay. I’ve noticed a lot of people clamoring for more and more dragons, but I see little clamoring for “hoofers”. So I’m clamoring right now for some!

All the pegasus models (save for hatching) are out of regular production, as are the ki-rins. I’m guessing the white unicorns are next to go since they’ve been around a while. That makes for one very, very unhappy horse-lover here. ;_;

But! I did stumble across this wonderful picture on elfwood:
http://elfwood.lysator.liu.se/art/m/e/melodypena/peg_mares_bb_final_cr_notice.jpg.html

Is there any chance of these making it to production color? Or is there some new color in the works for any of the hoofers? I know I’d snap them up so quick, it wouldn’t be funny (mainly because the bay one bears a striking resemblance to my oldenburg mare). We need more windstone hoofers out there!
We have the Pegasus family in black… at least I think we do anyway.. (although we are out of Male peg in black last time I looked)
Yes. I was planning to try the pegasus or unicorn family in other colors, such as bay or something. I just haven’t gotten to it. Too much to do! I have been experimenting with the Kirins in different colors, but haven’t hit on the perfect color yet.
My main priority right now though, is working out a do-able new griffin color (for regular production) with the grey and tan coloring, so we got a new color to sell them in!
Also, there is the Paint-your-own unicorn that is somewhere in the works.. don’t know where exactly, but she should surface eventually.

I now have the crystal ball, what kind of glue should I use? Should I use elmers? Or should I use a super glue?

We use clear epoxy on the globes. You need to use something that isn’t yucky looking when it dries, because you can see right through the globe. Maybe superglue would work, if it dries nice and clear.

I’ll try the epoxy then. Thank you.

Be sure it is the CLEAR kind! The regular kind is yellowish when it cures.

Thanks to Melody and others for your suggestions! The vibrating method is something we do by hand, tapping the molds, with variable success. We run a pretty low-tech operation so the cleaner and the vibrating table aren’t much of an option. Thanks to seeing Melody’s gallery pictures, as well as the work of others with molding and casting expertise, I can say it’s a much better option to have flat-sided mother molds that can be banded or screwed together.

And BTW Melody, there’s nothing negative at all with drawing more! Best of luck!
We patch the previous batch of casting’s bubbles with the plaster from the next batch. The trick is to patch them quick, before they dry out.
I’m drawing like crazy , thanks!

Hey, since they were born, we have tried our best to bring out the worst in our children. If we have failed it’s because they just don’t get it. Probably should have sent them to public school.
All I can say to you, Chess – is, yes, home schooling sucks. You have no help anymore from me, because you have advanced beyond what I have managed to learn in public schools…which, by the way, was only what I ferreted out for myself. I genuinely wanted to learn certain things,so I learned them myself. Homeschooling happens in Public school too.

Touche!*

*Unfortunately I’m too stupid to understand what you meant by that, so I’ll call it even and go away now.

Well I just finished talking to John and told him how much I want the BVP so maybe he has some pull with Melody to put one up soon.

But I doubt it 😆 😆 You guys have the pull!

Looking around I just noticed that both small spotted flap cats (bird and bat winged) were limited production… Any plans on making another batch any time soon?

I forgot about those. I was going to wait a year or so before doing more, but I could do another batch.I am tempted to do them in another color too.

Hello Melody,
I’m just wondering about something I think I see in some of the Dragons. To me it seems that the pose struck by Male Dragons are based on Feline behavior, but the Mother Dragon seems K-9.
Is this correct? ( just wondering). 🙄

Wow! Yes! The male dragon is based on a cat pose, and the female is in exactly the same pose the family dog would always take when it was about time for his walk.It was his waiting pose. He would sigh really loud, so you would notice, then lay down next to the front door with his head across one paw…and his eyes would follow you intently, just like the female dragon’s. I am amazed you picked up on that!

Will this be the next set of OW’s that you release, after the emeralds are gone?

Maybe, or maybe something different;there is no reason I can’t put two kinds of Warriors up at the same time. I haven’t done a one-of-a-kind lately.I’ve got a few of those sitting around burning holes in my desk.

Your next ebay auction listing:

“Here they are guys“.

Save yourself the time. I’m sure it took you longer to list the items then it did to sell them.

😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 I know! But there is still the off chance that someone will stumble across the thing and not know what is going on..

Do you have any plans to do them in the old green, brown, white, ruby colors?

I’ll take suggestions. If there is a color lots of people really want, I can do them!
