My Lomonosov turned around chipmunk sculpted by I Y Vorobyev. Any idea how I date him as he's completely unmarked? He does seem to have longer ears then the current model

Love the Chipmunk, I've had a few myself.

Your's is not the same chipmunk as the one in that link though!

I could be wrong but I don't think there's anyway to tell the difference unless it has a mark. I think Leni has a book on Russian animals though.

I need four candles to dig my garden up!

Feeling a bit poorly  :sk2: and the rain teeming down, I was just browsing on the internet and remembered this board!  Gosh!  It's a long time since I was here! :o  8:)

Here's my collection of Lomonosov animals.  (Except one is not, I think one fawn - the one sitting - is Verbilki.)  They all have the USSR mark, either red or black, except the hedgehog on the right, who has the 'Made in Russia' mark in red. 

I only collect 'woodland' animals, so the Alsation will have to go!  He was sold to me as a wolf!  :24:  :mad:

Aw sorry you're still under the weather Leni. :hug: Hope you're soon feeling better.

That's a great collection ... what is the black one back left? I can't make it out. I've never seen any of these on my travels.  
Cheers!

It's an otter with a fish in its mouth!  I never paid enough attention to size when collecting these, so I've ended up with everything from the miniature rabbit lurking at the back, to this otter, who's 9 inches tall!  8:)  ;D

He's rather a nice Alsation though. Are you sure he isn't a wolf?

Ah right, thanks Leni. I kept trying to figure it out but was defeated!  :blush:
Cheers!

.....never even said that little tiny rabbit at the back till you point him out.  He is darling, and the rest are just beautiful too. 

Love the sleek weasels too.
