After seeing some of the comments on this cow, I couldn't resist posting this picture from the German Federal Archives. It almost looks like someone borrowed this cow in the picture for the mold.

Didn't some of these come with zimmerit? Will we have to do our own or will a second dead cow with moulded on zimm be out soon?



Eric I think your thinking about German cows, these are French but if Dragon release the beefier 'German Mad Cow' version then yes, yes we will obviously have to wait until Cavalier release their after market product.

My cat looks like that when she wants her belly rubbed.

Back to the cow though, I'll be getting one, I want one for a diorama that is about to be butchered so will have to see if it looks a bit too bloated for a fresh kill ( though I'm sure a little modification would fix that ).

To me the problem is the colouring used and the fact it hasn't got s**t all over it. Especially the udders... I mean in theory they are pink. Under the layers of grime and excrement.



Haven't you aussies heard of washing them ? Kiwi farmers know how to look after their women.
