Arabian Tack

 I have to say one of my favourite types of tack is Arabian, although it's not the best section of the equestrian sport, which I'll get into shortly. I admire how some people can make such magnificent and eye-catching sets, I have made a couple myself but am only proud of the one I finished making today. Took me a couple of days to make but was so worth it!  I also love Arabian model horses. There is so much elegance and facial and muscular structure to capture and some sculptors do that perfectly! The retired schleich Arabians do that very well (the grazing foal and 2007 grey mare) and then there is of course all collectA Arabians and both of the WIA Arabians sculpted by Horraw studios (I believe that's the name ) which I'm so excited to be getting! As for real life Arabians it is going down hill fast. The selective breeding is cruel and honestly isn't as good looking as the breeders think, and to see brands, schleich specifically, feed into that with the more unna

WIA models

Any guesses on which ones I got?

 My name is Adah R., and am the person behind Spotted dreams studio . I’m a collector, customizer, blogger, photo shower, and judge. Silver Web Studios reached out to the OMHPS community and asked for guest bloggers, so I volunteered to write a post. :) Please note that in this post, when I refer to 1:18 scale, I am speaking of the general vague scales that surround the common rubber brands. They vary from 1:18-1:20. The model horse community as a whole seems to have discarded the 1:18th scale with their carpet herd. When a collector mentions the brand names Schleich, CollectA, Papo, Mojo, etc. the typical image is of an 8yr old holding a rubbed up rubber. Maybe we can picture a nice one in a show ring, but then we form a prejudice around cost. “Well, I paid $175 for my horse that I entered in that class. That rubber probably only cost about $10.” Maybe so. But some of my best horses have cost under $20, and I guarantee you’ve had a few too. Ever been surprised at how well a RR SM show
