Would PYO bookends be a possibility? maybe have a different creature for each bookend. Or a castle/small scenery?
You mean bookends other than the Winged Bookends? Windstone did produce those maybe 10 (?) years ago but I don’t think they were very popular. I’m not sure whether any more will be cast.
Should have specified in the original post, but yeah something more dynamic/interesting compared to the wings.

The eyes are a bit different from the normal ones. These are like a small hollow dome as opposed to the normal blob that the standard eyes are. Because of the additional height of the eyes one got stuck in the socket while I was putting it in as a test, so I ended up having no choice but to use them. While they look nice overall, there is one small issue: the dragon shouldn’t be looked at head-on.
Why?
I FINALLY finished him!
Took two years of mostly procrastination but I can now call this dragon done! This is Molten Metal.
It can’t be seen in any of the photos but he’s holding an orange rhinestone in his claw.
Ebay’s email system has given a sneak peek of the purple lightning Bantam dragon. Looks pretty nice.
Edit: and a Green Lightning. Missed it at first.
Since my holiday gift exchange swapee has gotten their gift I can post the little diorama I made for them here!
I made this to go with a little tiger ornament I had bought. The original intention was to make it 3 pieces so the box could be closed if it wasn’t used. …but I kind of went overboard with the foliage and had to make it all one piece to prevent any damage to the glued-on parts.
Mine has finally arrived and I love the Tiger ornament and the display box along with all bath stuff.
THANK YOU ….Emily
Unfortunately I think my picture is too big….so I will post it on Facebook in the Windstones group.That was me.:) I thought I had put my username in the card, sorry about that!
It was originally a lava dragon, so not too far off.
Also a little more progress.
The wings were a little too strong being a solid silver color so I broke it up with the red and gunmetal paint.
Look who’s finally getting worked on again!
At this point I’m just adding paint and hoping the end result looks alright in an attempt to get him done.
Ok I finally got the photo I took of my gifts over to my computer and resized, so here it is!
The cat toy and bird food block aren’t there since the former is coated in catnip and the later is in the bird’s cage.
I do know of the “no production pieces made into PYOs” bit, hence the suggestion of making a winking Poad. A unique pose that will enable a Poad PYO to exist.
This might have been mentioned earlier, but why not have PYO Poads? Could have the PYO winking to make its pose unique. Also no need to worry about mismatched eyes since it’ll only have one!
I got my gift package yesterday from Ela_Hara! Unfortunately I got home at midnight and was busy all day (and am at work right now) so couldn’t take any photos but here is a quick list of what I got!
Windstone gift card, big bag of organic gummy worms, two fruit and nut chocolate bars, a springy cat toy, a bird seed bar for my pet bird, an aquarium anemone decoration (it glows under certain light), and a dream catcher
That should be everything. The gummy worms are really good; I think I’ve eaten about a third of the bag. When I have time tomorrow I’ll take a photo of what isn’t already eaten.
Also I shipped out my package today.
By taking ownership of the payment process, eBay will be better able to meet shoppers’ preferences and drive more business for the company as a result.
Yeah, I don’t think that’s working out well, though the number of people commenting on this one thread is too small of a sample size and maybe it actually is more preferred overall.
Plus with the fees for ebay’s system currently being the same as Paypal’s there’s really no inclination to switch over.I’ve never heard of Bonanza before but I’ll have to check it out. The fees are so much better than ebay’s and they seem to accept PayPal as a payment method so I’m already very interested in it. Thanks for providing the link for them StormDancer.
