Thanks! But yours look far better than mine!!

funny how yours looks so different in profile than it does face on. I think maybe the eyes are too big. But it's still very nice. The standing one is built more like a Great Dane, but it perfectly captures the Mastiff's 'whaaaaaaaat?' expression when you catch them about to do something they're not supposed to do. "whaaaaaaaat? I wasn't going to get into the trash. Honest."

Ken, the versatility of your wonderful collection keeps surprising me, - wow

your collection also always surprise me too!

Congrats Ken, your Mastiff arrived quickly! The other one does look more like a great dane, but they are lovely

Recent plastic acquisitions are in this Japanese Netsuke case:

I did some reorganizing of the Flock in the curio cabinet, and almost all the shelves have had major changes, so here are updated photos.
My prizes. The Border Fine Arts Herdwick Ewe, the Hagen Renaker 1949 Mama Sheep and Anna's Uriel-- I'd call that a hat trick!

Some very exotic sheep and old composition sheep from Andreas. The 3 white porcelains in the back are by Cybis.

I tried to declutter the shelves, so all that's left with Brookside Stella is this little spun glass lamb.

Hagen Renaker mini Mama Sheep and Lamb, and a BFA jar.

I'd even gotten the top of the cabinet clean with only the porcelain sheep, but I no sooner turned my back and there were more sheep! Not that i mind as they are old German and Italian composition creche sheep, in excellent condition.

Wait a minute! Is that a Safari lamb that wasn't there just a few days ago?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaa! Now look at it! I swear, these sheep are like roaches, i can't keep them under control!

I was forced to put some sheep away , so they are packed here:

This little box has my tiniest sheep. There are over 100 in here!

I am working on something that i hope i can use to display these tiny ones safely. It will be great fun to have them out where i can see them all.

So that's the current state of the Flock.

A phantastic big and phantastic flock Carolynn but without a right sheperd dog

UPS! I just discovered that I spent over 20 minutes gawping at your pictures

Your collection is simply unique ! And so beautyfully displayed !!!!
I wonder if anybody on earth has a finer collection of sheep, - and Anna`s beautyful work, too

is "Stessy" the Schleich border collie ? She surely has her hands full

Ohh! So you also have had to give in and let some take a long nap in boxes, well, it is such a joy to see them again when you unpack

Thankyou very much for sharing (o)):

Wow Carolynn love your new comers, that Border Fine Arts Herdwick Ewe is a gem congratulations.
Too bad you've had to put some away in boxes, I've had to do the same

Yay, Your collection is so awesome! Wonderful Carolynn
And so wonderful displays too, I just love this Japanese case, it looks very unique and beautiful.
And porcelain sheep, I love them all, how beautiful they are

Congratulations and thank You for sharing! It's great to wacth these photos of wonderful collection

Thank you, Andreas, Susanne, Harriet, and Anna! Sharing with friends is half the fun!

what do you mean? is not a Border Collie okay? or do i also need a German Shepherd Dog?

SUSANNE wrote:

Yes, Stessy is the Schleich Border Collie. She came with a lot of sheep and while i was trying to decide what to do with her, i fell in love with her. She certainly does have her hands paws full. I have 3 other dog figures and they are no help whatever to her, a Mastiff, a Hound and a Spaniel, who know nothing of sheep.

No wonder, Andreas is tired ! All those parcels he sends out to his lucky STS-friends

Great collection, I like best the first picture with the "Japanese Netsuke case".

Quite the collection ewe have!
(Yes, I went there.)
And your statue of the black faced ram is love at first sight!
I'm a total sucker for bad guys with an attitude!

I also think the Netsuke case looks fantastic.
It's a shame that you have to box up all your tiny little sheep.
If you have enough wall space somewhere, maybe type cases (printer trays) could do the trick?

I think, that after STS ghost, I am the person that spend more time online! But, this forum can always surprise me!
So here is the Temple of the Sheep!
This is a monumental, biblical and pastoral collection! I love it so much! Pictures are divinal. When you have time, can you please open a topic about your sheep in 1:32 scale? Those Britains sized? Only if you have the chance, of course once with such a huge collection it won't be easy.
Thanks for sharing one of the most charismatic collections I know.

wow great collection, the buffalo and ram are very good looking, :) :)

Very elegant graceful collection of sheep, Carolynn (o)): (o)): I really enjoyed viewing url amazing flocks.
Porcelain n ceramic figurines have their own charm n presence

IT's really fun. I like it. (o)):

Nice pictures!
