My collection

Hello :) I thought I'd post a photo of my current collection (a few photos actually) It's been scattered across the house and I can't spend enough time to play with them, but oh well. I keep the favourites close!
My current collection consists of Breyer, Stones, CollectA horses and a few resins. I only buy what I like, hence the small amount of models
First photo is of Don't Look Twice, Picasso (I have renamed them, but for the sake of this post and to avoid confusions I'll just use their Breyer names) 2 Stone chips drafters, my F22 (Yup, planes, I like them!) Schleich Donkey and Hipo and 2 random rabbits. Picasso was my first traditional for 2015. I really like him. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
The next 3 photos show my CollectA (missing the percheron mare as I am currently making some tack for her) most of my Stablemates and a few resins (SMB Dante, HA Sheza Naughty Neddie and HA Alchemist) [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
I really need to take better photos, but for now, these will have to do.
Next few photos are of my Breyers and Stones :)

That's my Half Passer by Stone - [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
He was a grail of mine and I am really happy I've managed to snap him, as these guys go for quite a lot sadly.
And just because I like her, this is a photo of my Custom Weathergirl. She's by Sue Kern.

The last photo is of my Firiona resin who still needs clothes
And that's all of it, missing just one horse :) If you are interested in a photo of a certain horse, don't hesitate to bug me
P.S. Please, excuse the dust, I really need to clean those shelves....

That seems like a lovely collection, Stanislava! I must say I have no knowledge about brands like Breyer and Peter Stone, but the horses you own look beautiful Thanks for sharing! I really hope you'll find the models you're still looking for.

Do you do customs/repaints yourself as well?

Don't worry, that's something every collector has problems with

Thank you!!
As about Breyers and Stones, there are tons of information on the net. You just need to Google them, lol.
I do repaints myself, yes :)
I'll try and find photos of all my customised models for you.
First is Saracen :) He's Sunburnt black ISH. You can see him in the collection shots as well.

I've got some more, but I shall post photos later if I manage to find any as they have been since sold.

Ohhh! So many beautyful, wonderful horses...and the cutest rabbits and hedgehog
Thankyou very much for sharing

I certainly understand that your blue horse was a holy grail, he is gorgeous, - and so is Weathergirl

This is the kind of pictures where I need to come back and look many times, because it is hard to take it all in the first time(s)

Addition : Now I see your customs, - WOW

Haha I know I can find information on the internet, but horses just aren't my collecting interest anymore I used to collect the Schleich-S horses, but I kind of stopped that collection, because I don't like them that much anymore

Thank you very much for showing me photos of your repaints; I think they are all wonderful! I especially like your blue roan, such a wonderful colour for a horse

Don't hurry, take your time!

A very nice collection :) Congrats

It is great to see that you are already posting your collecting and being an active member of this community!
Your horses sellection is very good as are your customs!

Thank you everyone for your kind comments!
I've been a horse lover since I remember and having a collection of horses is a great experience :)
Roger, thank you! It was the right thing to do, as I rather prefer Forums than Facebook. The atmosphere in the forum is completely different than Facebook, and people here are much more....friendly to each other. Unlike facebook, where everyone try to rip the others off..
I've not done a custom horse in a while, though. I've got a 6 months baby who takes up most of my time, apart from when he's sleeping. Unfortunately, I can stretch a three hours period into 3 days, so I have to take wht I am given

So many nice horses. Although I don't collect Breyer or Stones (but I have one Stone chip) these horses always amaze me!
Great collection of CollectA horses <3

Beautiful collection! You have many amazing models! I love Dante and you painted him beautifully

Oh boy, look at that Kern CM!! LOVE her! Did you commission Sue yourself or did you buy her secondhand? She lives about 20 minutes away from me

Ha! :3 That's my total gem in my collection! :3 Actually, a friend of mine commissioned her without telling me, and I got her as a gift. Love this girl to pieces. Sue is super talented. I'd really love another one of her beautiful customs.

I just remembered, that I actually missed a horse!!
This is Peridot, micro miny mare cast in Pewter by Meadowview Artistry, from the UK!

Pictured next to a Breyer Stablemate for scale reference. isn't she just adorable!

Lovely collection and i love the repaints you do :)

Thank you ! I really miss customizing and tack making but having a small kid doesn't allow much.

Oh, so you have a baby! So nice that you find soem time to show your figures meanwhile. Welcome for your baby too!

Haha thank you!
Gosh there are so many horse that were sold since I posted this thread, my photos are very outdated.... I've also welcomed a few newcomers. I will be dusting my shelves today and once this has been done, I shall add some new photos to this topic :)

My collection had a massive rearrangement! Finally got all my models in my room :) Managed to get all horses on a wall shelf and a shelving unit! (Gotta make space for new horses, lol)

Congratulations :)

Nicely done

They look great !!! The black background is a lot nicer than I would have thought

Lovely collection ! Thanks for sharing

I love taking photos of my models on black background! The colours just pop so much nicer!

Am I the only one who can't see the photos?! If I am not the only one I will need to readd photos...

I also can't see photos from your first post, I don't know what happened.
Maybe it was censored because Firiona had no clothes.

No pics
