Esteemed readers and supporters in this thread. There is no reason for dispute and conflict. This is not what i want and this is nothing that should stand between each of us
. I value every opinion expressed to me with an open heart and a good will. Everyone has their experiences and it can not hurt to participate in it. Sometimes it's good to take a risk and sometimes it's good to be a little more cautious. So i can choose for myself which of your advice i will follow.
Maybe my next words can create a little more understanding in some contexts. Unfortunately i can be active again in this place only today. The past three days were an unusual experience
. There was a mistake in the Vodafone network so i was decoupled from internet and telephone. On the one hand it has shown how dependent the modern man is on technology. On the other hand it was also calm in some sense and i began to get used to it. Nearly...
However, this morning the error could be repaired. After the obligatory email check followed the view into the forum.
And my heart was warmed.
I don't know what to say, to be appropriately humble in front of all those who has given me courage and appreciation. And your all trouble to find a working variant for and with me. This is so kind of you all, thank you Paul (BB), thank you Kostis, thanks Graeme, thank you Peter, thank you Dirk and thanks Talking Horse.
Paul, i'm sure Mr. Cryns means the first set of produced cows, not the original master figurines. And i'm sure, he only wanted to tell me to make good advertising outside this forum...

! Yippie-Ya-Yeah!!! You could not know it, but when i began to plan my activity in the field of historical cattle i originally wanted to start with the Auerochs or with an historic italian cattle like the Marchegiana or the Chianina.

And Michel, i will trying to shoot some photos today. But Dirk already has a pattern, maybe you can look at it. This dog is the largest of the three specimens, its height at the shoulder would be about 85 cm in the original. But no matter, i will do my best to show you the others too.
Finally, i would like to inform you about the fact some progress has been made. All preparations to initiate the production of the cattle as well as the two sets of dogs (mastiff and wolfhound) have been finished. So there should be something for everyone of you in just a few weeks.
I hope now you are all better informed.
Thanks again
