1:22 KOUPREY BULL: NEW COLOUR - Updated: 06.25.

Hi,

I made Kouprey plans. I prefer two type from the lot of illustration. Yes, unfortunately I found only illustrations about Kouprey. No photos on the web about Kouprey bulls.
But I choosed the two most realistic. You can see their body shape is very different. Now the question not the pose of the model, the question is the shape of the build.
So, please help me, choose a plan from A or B.
Thank You

And the nilgai ... it's a really important figure for us :)

Don't worry, Nilgai will be before Kouprey. But I need a bit help with Kouprey plans. :)

Ohh cool :)

Welcome here!




I selected A, looks like I'm in the minority

B is more impressive, but I think A is more realistic. So A it is.

Are you sure that's a cow? I think it's a bull. I think I can see the penis.

Yes, really, but looks like a cow... maybe a young bull... I think it is not an adult bull.

I greatly admire Tony Lobet (plan A ilustrator), but I think that plan B is more realistic.

This is young bull from Paris Zoo, died during warld war II.

There is black and white photos and one colour movie from the 60`s.

This is the chapter regarding kouprey in great new book about Bovidae http://www.researchgate.net/publication/268807082_Kouprey._In_Ecology_Evolution_and_Behaviour_of_Wild_Cattle._Eds._Melletti_and_Burton._Cambridge_University_Press


This is the movie http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oFYwnjqHr6k

I am interesting in kouprey fate for years and this will be dream figure for me!
:-)
Thank you Noemi!

This is great source of info, but need registration http://extinctanimals.proboards.com/thread/7720/bos-sauveli-kouprey

I think A is realistic,because the muscle of the bull's shoulder looks tall(above it's neck) but a little thin.:)

Thank You very much Konstantin!

Great and useful things. I never saw video about them. Unfortunately the quality is not too good but better than nothing.

I choosed A and B from two reliable books. After you send me these things, I think A is a bit better than B. But honestly, with lot of new info, the better would be if I make a new plan.

I am looking forward to see your new plan! The horns are very interesting and unique too

Thank You to Everybody for the help and votes.
During the poll, I got lot of new info(video, illustrations, photo, descriptions) about Kouprey. After these infos I had to make an other plan, because both A and B are not reliable.
The result of the poll was, that more people like B Kouprey. I did take into consideration when I made the new plan, but there are few things on A Kouprey which I also have to put into my new plan. So here is Kouprey C. What is your opinion about him?

Thank You Anna. What do you think about him? Would you change something, if you were me?

I think Kouprey C is fantastic, and I love your drawing!!

I love this drawing. If the sculpture will be like this it will be excellent.

I'm not sure only about the jaws, if it shouldn't be slightly (like maybe 15%) bigger? So the bottom line of the jaws should go slightly deeper? Just an impression when I compare to other bovids but it may also be the case that Koupreys have a bit more delicate type of head than the others.
