Now that you mention it Lyne, I think the legs also might need to be a bit larger through the X and Z axis scale. The length on them seems to be fine.

Hard to say, their legs are so small looking with such a huge body bulk... but then most bovines DO have oddly short wimpy legs! I'm mainly looking at the hooves. :)

The length on the legs is good to me. It's the width that might need to be upped a little to compensate for the size of the hoof. Of course, you can always break them lenghwise and make beef bone soup or beef osso bucco !

Working on improving our Spanish Bull today. I've thickened him up, more muscular, bigger thicker horns, widened his stance, head reshaping, and generally adding in more beef to the bull.

Curious Chris

Was wondering if the flap of skin under its chin is going to be poseable....as some left and right movement.I had the pleasure of seeing a real bull fight (where the bull was NOT killed in the end) and watched the bull up close with a telephot lens and noticed that flap moved every time it tossed its massive head.
Also are there going to be an additional morphs to make the hump on its neck bigger and adding more musculature to the frame to make it look more massive? Are there going to be any breed morphs along the lines of what Lynn added to her ALWAYS besutiful Bovine set?

OH THIS IS GREAT CHRIS. Wish that extra hair stuff could be added to some of the other animals as well.
As a thought is it possible to create these extra hair as poseable smart props to add ourselves on any animal we deem them necessary for effect? Sort of what i asked for on the big cat thread regarding those beautiful fuzzy ears. Would still love a set of those realistic fuzzy ears as poseable props to say add to a V4 or Dawn figure to create Japanese Kit characters!

With the right muscles morphs I can see this beautiful creature as the White forest Gods steed for the Dark Hunt. Muscles and dirt and rough hide and a saddle made of worn torn and tattered leather and reins with that extra hair in other places to fill it out and make it look more feral and ominous! :))

Not sure if this is the right venue for this but I have a need for a muscle texture set for a horse either Harry or MilHorse 1 or even P4 horse (in desperation) showing the muscular structure of the animal similar to those made for Mil2 and Mil4 human figures.
has anyone seen such a skin texture?

Sorry, bull fighting is gross and dangerous. This is what should be done with the Bull:

Ferdinand the bull - Google Search
If the bull can just be fought without killing it in the end it is really an exciting and visually stunning sight to see in person. They are so darn beautiful and if properly led by a good toreador it looks like it dances in the heat of things. But I agree with you, I am totally against killing it in the end.
