Brrr! It's getting colder out, but these two know how to stay warm! I'm a bit of a South Pole exploration history nut, and so have been wanting to do something that was a bit of an homage to figures like Ernest Shackleton, Scott, and Amundsen and the fearless canines that were ever present on those journeys. This depicts a man that is very loosely based in appearance on someone named Tom Crean. Crean, described by one of his shipmates as "indestructible", joined the likes of Shackelton and Scott for several South Pole excursions. The dog is based on a sled dog, named Shakespeare, from Shackelton's Endurance expedition. Do you need to know all of that? No. All you need to know is that they're ready to get you through the worst of the winter with a hot cuppa and a smile.
