My Cattle Conversions, Limousins & Belted Galloways


Recommended Posts

Just some photos of my Belted Galloways and Limousin conversations along with a few British Whites.

In my new cattle ring, still need to add alot of finishing touchs, will complete someday.

 

Will upload photos once I resize them below 2mb.

My ayrshire bull photo is the only photo I have below 2mb, just testing how to upload.

 

Got them up now, working on some more Limousins this week as well as some Belgian/British Blues.

This will be finished for next week.

A very rare, and usually expensive, figure the Britains lead Ayrshire Bull (about £100 from specialist dealers or when it appears on ebay).

To be picky, I think you could do with a few more appropriate people in the crowd, just regular looking blokes standing around. In addition to the obvious Britains, JoHillCo and other lead farmers, look out for some of the Britains and Timpo railway passengers (The Timpo man in brown overcoat for example). Also, there are the lead sitting figures, Britains 'Aged Villager' & 'Farmers son' and JoHillCo sitting drover.

A nice scenic display you have made,not very often livestock rings are seen as diorama.Im sure you wiil add to the display through time rome wasnt built in a day and what you have used so far in terms of building the sales ring farmers,buyers or spectators does the job nicely carry on the good work  :)

That's a nice seen a little different to the norm as well. Very nice indeed. Is it part of a larger diorama or have you just kept to the auction ring?

Hi I have just done the ring so far, however I have started a shed but cannot get the time just started a new job. Thanks for your comment.

Yeah I have sold quite a number of these in past maybe 7-8 now and I usually get well over the £100. Have two mores cows and one bull still to sell. Yeah I need so spend a bit more time throughout the ring. Hopefully I will get more time soon, but I have started the cows now and it takes up any spare time. Thanks for the comments much appreciated.

I can relate to that! I have just finished a beef cattle building, I have a topic following the build called New Beef Shed. Need to update the topic over the weekend.

Brilliant little diorama. In photo 6, that lady in white overalls is either coppin a feel or shes trying to catch the auctioneer's eye!

First time I joined this forum your shed was the first thing I saw, looks great. Hope to finish the shed I started sometime, hopefully I can push myself to do it.
