Horns is a contradiction but i'm sure one could make an explanation. How about more hair. The hair need to be really obvious. it first i might not realise they are female, regardless to boobs. Could the horns not be a Helmet? (edit: i suppose there's quite a lot of hair, painted would change my perception there).

These are looking good.

Ahh schoolboy error on the horns! I'll mention that to Alexei.

I think the core set will remain the male bull-minos then these can be add-ons if things go well :)

Please don't try cattle realism on minotaur plausability. Nothing about these models is illogical or not OK as is.
people make that same annoying mistake every freakin' time...

Don't let a bull's horns trick you; the breed of cattle determines if a bull has horns or not.Many dairy breeds will have horns on both male and female cattle.
Some breeds of cow that have horned females include the common Jersey breed, Holstein cattle, Highland cattle and Kerry dairy cattle. A complete listing of breeds with horned females would be a listing of every horned breed. In all horned breeds of cow, males and females alike have horns.

The state of having horns is not related to gender but to the presence or absence of a particular gene. The hornless gene, also known as the polled gene, affects males as well as females. The hornless gene is dominant over the gene for horns, and many horned breeds also have hornless strains.

Hmm learning a lot about cattle during the lead up to this project xD
Thanks for the input guys! Do we think the body proportions are OK?

In and out of work at the moment, having fun with a reoccurring fever last few weeks :S. But will get some cast images soon for these.

If you want more comments on realism - the human-style boobs look more realistic than udders would, keep them as they are.

Looks awesome. Can we get a side-by-side for a size reference?
