Windstone stuff!

bladesparkJJ is getting a new bed. In order to get the new bed into the apartment, we had to move my Windstone collection out of the way, and in order to do that of course I had to move them out of the cabinets, so while they were out anyhow, I took some photos! Some with and some without flash. With flash is better to the real color, but of course it washes out detail a lot and adds to many shine spots to the shiny finish ones.
First, we have a photo of this blue male I repainted a lot time ago. He's not done, because I still can't decide if I should drybrush him and make him all textural, or put on interference and metallics and make him all shiny. Any votes either way, or other suggestions?
And then there's my latest ki-rin. Don't tell anybody on the forums! It's a secret until it arrives where I'm going to send it this week.
Then we have my "circle." Several of the larger collectors have put together circles of matching dragons, particularly old warrior dragons, though also lap dragons and male dragons. I am not rich enough to have large numbers of any of these (I have 2, 1, and 3, respectively) But I am rich enough to have a circle of fledglings. In fact once I get the newly released emerald peacock color, I'll have every fledgling color there is.
And the crowning glory, the entire collection in one place! There are 52 pieces in this shot. I've been collecting since December 2004, so really I've got a huge collection compared to most, as pretty much everyone I know with a bigger one has been collecting much longer. (With the exception of tc, who seems to have only been collecting a few months, but who came into an inheritance and spent it all on Windstones, which is why her collection is more than mine already!)
http://bladespark.topcities.com/collection0711.jpg is a high-res version of the whole thing, so you can see more detail on all the stuff.
I need to make a new Windstone icon...
