Britain pictures - poppets at Victory

[nid_dabeille]

Pictures of my Jack and Stephen poppets, lovingly posed by des_pudels_kern.



Poor Jack!  This made everyone say, "Awwwwww!"  The plaque on the quarterdeck reads:
Here Nelson Fell
21st Oct 1805.
(I just realized, that plaque would make a good crayon rubbing.  Probably lots of people have done that.)


Stephen finds his station in the sick berth.  (Bless him!)


Jack stations himself at the guns.


Until he suffers an injury and must be carried to his cot! 
Not really.  He's just suffering the emotional aftereffects of Nelson's death, poor dear.


And then Stephen goes below to take care of his own curious emotions, the lamb.




Poor creatures!  I hate to leave them in such a sad state, so I'll leave you with this happier image. 
This picture looks strangely fake, like they were posed in front of a photo backdrop.  But I assure you, it's real!

There are bear photos here, but they are not all. I can send you some offline, including the photo I took this year of Babbs (or was it Pullings),StephenB., Jack B., Jack P., Stephen P, and Young Heneage. *g*

So cute! But post them on your LJ! Everyone else will enjoy seeing them, I'm sure.

[esteven]

At some stage I will. I just don't have the time to upload them. :(

I'll wait. I'm not going anywhere.

I am pleased to hear this. Maybe latin is faster. I think she took wonderful photos. :D

You ought to have received two photos by now. ;D

Oh yes, so cute! Haha, Stephen could wear that tourniquet as a belt.

He was pleased to see that they had maintained his instruments so well. :D

I'm glad he approved.

[esteven]

So was I. He does not approve often.
