Well, since there are about as many color combinations out there as there are cattle, I would go with a color scheme based upon one of those. I\'d do a web search based upon that. Or conversely you could do a search for the Minoan Freizes from Knossos and base your paint scheme on that.

brown brown and more brown...

Maybe kind of boring but I seem to like the basics of brown.

GW colors

Dark Flesh as the darkest areas
Bestial Brown for the midcolors
Snakebite leather for the highlights.

Here are some links that I think look neat...

Of course, if you just put the word \'minotaur\' into the search feature, you\'ll have more ideas than you can shake a paint brush at!!

Good luck!:D

A golden advice

Go to the nearest petshop and ask for their minotaurs. Maybe you could bring one back home, so that he\'ll keep your home safe.

Concerning colours, well, try natural ones. Mostly brownish tints would fit. Try to have a look at wolfen minis, they are probably what\'s closest to a minotaur in term of nature...

That is all well and good, but in my part of the world, you need to get a proper \"minotaur license\" otherwise you can face a pretty hefty fine.

My neighbor had an unlicensed one once, it got pretty messy....lollollol

Something tells me that even a LICENSED minotaur would tend to be messylol

Here\'s a nice starting site. Maybe you can find more:

Photos of Longhorn bulls

p.s. I think it would be cool to do a minotaur off a brahma bull. Give him a hefty hump!

What an intriguing website :wow: Wherre do you find these things? Lots of good resource pictures.

And a few surprises. For instance, I thought \"4 Horned Hair Sheep\" was an 80\'s band. :D And under \"Quail\" I was expecting pictures of an ex-vice president trying to spell \"Potato\" lol
