myminifactory

Officially Extinct in 1627 Bos primigenius, also known as the aurochs, was a species of large wild cattle that was native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa. It was one of the largest herbivores of its time, with males reaching up to 6.5 feet (2 meters) tall at the shoulder and weighing over 1,500 pounds (680 kg). The aurochs played an important role in human history, as it was domesticated in the Middle East around 8,000 years ago and used for meat, milk, and as a draft animal. However, the last wild aurochs died in the early 17th century and the domesticated population gradually declined in numbers until it became extinct in 1627. Model includes a Pre-supported version. The model is sized for 1:24 of the actual size. You can reduce or enlarge the model using the slicing software if you need a different size. Pre-supported model is oriented to minimize supports to the face and other high-detail parts. Care should be taken when removing the supports to avoid damaging the model.
