I've tried to see the wider picture, but it still looks like there are two cats attacking the cow! Good idea though. I love the ox and the donkey - those star wars bot heads make excellent horns. Alastair (21 years ago, 23-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle)

These animals are great! I think the use of cats for the cow head would be even better for a cow skull. I can see one out in the LEGO desert now :) Good job! James (21 years ago, 23-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
