btw, any idea who that is holding the dog head? and who created it?
another great work of art!!!

I have to confess that was me, and me again, Ian Bishop.

High praise indeed - I'm glad you liked it.

It was modelled on our Border-Collie, Tess, and is about 2/3 life-size.
It was my first serious attempt at an 'MOC', and I was very pleased with
how it turned out. It doesn't *quite* capture her character perfectly
but no-one else is to know that I suppose. The photo has the ears in a
funny position - they are almost as dextrous as the real thing! The
whole thing took about 2 evenings to finish. All the parts came out of
the boxes of used lego I keep after all the good bits have been taken
out.

In the fullness of time I'll take more photos of it and post them to my
website so you can have a better look.
