Have a Cow, Man

There are quite a lot of cows in Switzerland, and a few of them inhabit the hills across from Wassen. It's surreal to hear their bells ringing - just like you'd expect from the movies or strange dreams.

I bought a pack of six Preiser 1:220 cows and installed one on the layout for a pic of my cow shed from a few days ago. They're typically black and white, like many cows are...  Alas, most Swiss cows that I've seen are not.

So I painted some over with a light brown sheen. With a white nose, white ears and a black dot for a nose like proper Swiss cows. Hard to see in these awful phone pics. Must find my proper macro lens.

Need some bells for them now.
