I collect model horses. Plastic, resin and a few china. Least expensive was $12; most expensive $2500. I have somewhere between 100-150 horses, I think. I take them to shows where they compete in breed for most realistic breed conformation and quality of paint work and they wear saddles and such in performance and compete in the same things real horses compete in like dressage, show jumping, western trail, ...

My favorite sculptor is Brigitte Eberl in Germany. I have quite a few custom painted horses and numerous finish work artists I adore.

Sadly I am going to be having the Great Keep Yoda Out Of Prison For Tax Evasion Model Horse Sale soon. Bummer.

Here are a few pics of some favorites. (Some pics by me; some by sculptor/finish work artists)
