Melody, do you have plans to release more Pebble sculpts in color shift options like the cougars? (Can I convince you to do *all* the Pebble sculpts?) 😀
I’m hoping hardest for Sitting Red Foxes, Bat-Ears, and Fennecs, but I’m flexible; I’m just curious if you/Windstone had specific plans to repeat the spectacular all-the-color-shift-colors-at-once release plan with other Pebbles. It was awesome, and it ended in my buying not one but two cougars, and I think almost everything sold out, so hopefully it was a huge success that will happen again…
Yes, I want to do all of them in the shift paint, but we only have a good supply of Tanuki castings at the moment, and just a handful of lady cats and wolves.
These tiny batches ( like 7 each of a couple colors) will probably sell out really fast. We will paint more when we get castings.
Shift paint looks great on the wolves, but I think it is kinda … meh… on the tanukis. They don’t have enough underside showing to make the color look shifty. I haven’t tried these colors on all of the other pebbles yet.
*edit* After painting a few batches of these tanukis in various color shifts … I do think they look just fine. This paint is so weird.I am SO happy to hear about the Lady Cats! I have been hoping for more natural colours but this is also awesome. First thing I hoped for when I saw the wolves.
These pebbles are nice because they are a little cheaper, and with the “rainbows” they make for somewhat easier-to-collect sets. 🙂
From Melody’s Facebook page. I think these are in the “Someday, Maybe” category, but Melody might surprise us!
Snapshot of some tatzel cat sculp ideas that have been sitting around . I have lots off little “sketch” versions of potential sculptures. The little one is a rattlecat.
I love the Rattlecat! Lots of potential colour combos. With wings too, it looks like?
She looks great! Nice work on the face especially 🙂 And good colour matching!
lol, that Apoxie stuff really is irritating in itty bitty pieces, isn’t it? I sometimes have to use tools rather than my fingers to get tiny bits started, or it just sticks to my fingers.
Oohh these are so cool to see! I cannot wait to get mine. I’m hoping for something along the lines of gold, but we’ll see. I try not to get my heart set on anything really specific with GBs just in case.
I feel badly getting one when others obviously missed out :c So if I am not in love with it when it arrives, I’ll most likely be selling rather than trading.
I love these cats, but because of the need to hand paint all the details, it was impossible to paint these cats efficiently enough for us to produce them.
We are beginning to cast the larger sushi cats again though! This time you guys can do the work! These will be pyos.How cool is that! I think these really lend themselves well to different colour schemes – so PYOs are perfect 🙂
The hatching Llama made me smile. They’d look fun in fantasy colours too. I mean, if they’re coming out of eggs, there’s obviously ~some~ magic involved…
Just thought I’d mention that I also get the “access denied” page. I’d like to know which user (or who to contact to find out which user!)
Ugh, never rely on the Cart Timer… I had 7 minutes left on a Safari Poad and went to buy it, only to find out it wasn’t in my cart anymore 🙁
I live in Baden, Ontario… close, but no cigar 🙁 It’d be 3.5-4 hours of driving and my old car would never make the trip in one piece!
I hope you can find help! They’re really cute.
In the end, it’s Windstone’s decision. I think in the future if there’s a decision like this to be made, it might be easier on some of our consciences if the decision was made internally and just announced as fact (“Sorry guys, it turns out that the Poads are not going to be ready until after Christmas!” would be just fine).
Yes, I agree. It is nice that Windstone cares about our opinions but I don’t think we should be consulted on this one.
I agree also 🙂
I feel badly because my disappointment may make someone else feel guilty, but I have no desire to pile anyone with work around Christmas any more than anyone else here does I am sure! (conversely, I don’t want anyone to feel bad about NOT working through the holidays – just enjoy that time off!)
We’ll be fine with whatever you guys decide. We’re just lucky to have you 😉
My only concern is not knowing the approximate date as we do/did, it may be easier to miss out on the GB or the GB type we want.
Either way, I wouldn’t be comfortable buying a gift certificate counting on getting a grab bag. I have bad luck is all. :p
I’ve been on pins and needles for about a week… So admittedly I’d be disappointed, but I would totally understand.
Is there any chance for some pictures of the young poads…..please and thank you! 🙂
Oh yes please, I’d love to see pictures if you have them available. I’m SO excited for these, you have no idea Melody! lol
I’ve been pining for photos ever since i heard “dart frog” …!
No rush of course! Just excited 🙂
