but she’s still really prettyThose were murder to paint perfectly. Sorry about that.I can imagine….the one I have now is very well done…..the first one I got was actually when they first came out…..and the only piece I have ever been disappointed with on the paint…..

I know if I had to do it myself I would probably go nuts….I’m much pickier with what I paint than with what other people paint….

but I still want to see the one you had painted in the other color…I forget which color you said it was….
There is no excuse for asymetrical nipple paint.

LOL….maybe she was wiggling when they were painting cause it tickled…It is cold when it goes on..

Never sick of warriors! But yes, silly, there are warriors in peacock. Don’t you know your own children 😉

Oh gad, sorry!… for some reason I read “rainbow”. The old warriors in Peacock are retired now.
…And … no, I usually have no idea what has been made in what color and what has not.

Melody-

I was curious if I could ask for a certain color of eyes for a PYO wolf. I have a wolf character that has red eyes that I’d like to make into a PYO- would that be possible? How much extra would you charge, if you can do that?

Thank you, and sorry to bug ya 🙂
Hmmm.. I don’t know, why don’t you email John and ask him? We talked about doing custom eye colors, but we didn’t come up with a real plan. John@windstoneeditions.com

I was wondering how you decided on which color to make these in. Also, would you consider doing a black one?

I did them in white because that is the color they are shown in in the old illustrations.
I would like to do them in another color, probably black, as a special edition. Some day.
If you haven’t seen these, I have a pic of the Gothinc unicorns in different colors in my Elfwood gallery here: http://elfwood.lysator.liu.se/art/m/e/melodypena/2gothic_unis_test_paint_ps__cwnotice_8_21final.jpg.html

Heyla Melody!

I’ve recently gotten onto an Okapi kick… and I was curious… since you have sculpted Meerkats… any thought to doing another African animal…. The Okapi???

They are rare… and were once considered “mythical” creatures… then known only as “short necked Giraffes”…

Just curious if the thought had ever popped into your mind… or maybe you had some sketches… 😀

Some pics of Okapis….

What the old warrior in peacock will be offered on the direct sales page?

Did we ever do Warriors in peacock? I don’t think we did, so we may issue them as special editions in the future.If we did do them, then they are retired now.
I don’t know what the chances are, but if that is something that many people want, that will increase the chances. Aren’t you sick of warriors?

Edit.. sorry, I was not paying attention when I answereed this. I was thinking “Rainbow” See my response below.

They are not marbles, folks!
Look at them closely. Notice they have no flaws, no bubbles, no yellowish or greenish cast…They are optically clear lead crystal globes that we have custom coated with a reflective mirrored back.
The candle lamp eyes are marbles, but the globe that the innerlight cowpie dragon is holding in his paws and the one the Cat Wizard is holding are the lead crystal balls.The frog wizard has a larger lead crystal ball of the same quality but without the coating on it.

Sorry! I guess I’m not a connosseiur of glass globes… as flawless as they may be, they still look like marbles to me. But at least now I know they’re better. ^_^ These are also what we use for eyes in the Spectral dragons and I had intended to use these for eyes in the outdoor
“Spirit Wolf” which we still haven’t produced. I realized a problem with that idea… if one of these globes should come loose from the eyesocket of an outdoor sculpture and lay on the ground it could start a fire! They are so clear, they could be dangerous.A marble won’t do that!
