Just got back!`

I just got back from the IL-IA Live Model Horse Show that was held in Dubuque, IL! :) I got my first NAN card, some new custom stablemates, and a few other placings that I was happy about~! I haven't been on my blog in FOREVER! So I thought I would update a little bit about what has been going on ;) My collection is growing, slowly but steadily. I am moving into collecting Breyer OF as well as customs :) I don't think I will be collecting Resins or Peter Stones anytime soon, but I did buy a Peter Stone chips drafter the other day, just because of the coat color :3

Well that is all of the updates for now! :)

Breyerfest YouTube Equestrian Team!

Hello everyone! Just thought I would bring this to your attention! Two YouTubers, SaddleUpFlash and StormValleyStables, are letting me help them spread the word about the YouTube Equestrian Team!

What is the Breyerfest YouTube Equestrian Team you might ask?

Well, the Breyerfest YouTube Equestrian Team is trying to put together a bunch of people who have real horses and trying to come up with the group (Breyerfest YouTube Equestrian Team) to perform at Breyerfest 2012!

They are currently taking auditions here: [link]

***Please note that they did not have this cleared with Breyer yet, but they are trying to have it cleared so they can have the Breyerfest Youtube Equestrian Team perform at Breyerfest!***

The requirements to enter you and your horse:
~You must be able to transport your horse to the Kentucky Horse Park and back
~We need a limit of 8 other people to enter or more
~Try to have as many disciplines as possible
~Must be able to Walk, Trot, and Canter
~Horse has to be pretty good with crowds and a show ring (probably a good idea to have been to a couple shows with your horse ahead of time)

If you would like to enter your horse for the audition, take a video of you and your horse doing your discipline and make a video response here:
[link]

If you have any questions please comment back on this journal or send me a note! I would be happy to answer your questions and comments! (Raw video please xD )

Happy Riding! :D

My Thoughts on Breyerfest 2011!

Well, for my first time going to Breyerfest, it was pretty amazing! Many people had tons of sales (at Breyerfest and at the Clarion)! Just for those who don't know what Breyerfest is, Breyerfest is a huge model horse convention, it's three days long, and they have a bunch of real horse performances and much much more!

I am not sure if I am going next year but I would love to go next year!

Just some tips for people who have never been to Breyerfest:
1.) Bring cameras, water, bags, etc
2.) Don't go to the Clarion until at least 4 pm! There isn't anyone there around 1pm! I learned that the hard way....
3.) Try and stay at a hotel in Lexington if not in the Lexington Area, this will make it easier for you to travel to Breyerfest and the Clarion

Got any questions? Comment them! I will be happy to tell you guys any other information!

BREYERFEST IS TOMORROW!

Haven't posted a blog in a while so I thought I would write one since my DeviantArt account isn't cooperating with me at this time! Anyway, my youtube channel has all my updates (www.youtube.com/user/TwixBreyerStables) about Breyerfest and Model Horse related matters!


Tomorrow I am getting up at 7:30 and leaving no latter than 8:30 with my friend who is meeting us at our hotel we are staying at in a different town.

On Saturday, I am heading over to the CHIN (Clarion-Holiday Inn North) to look at getting some new models for my collection and picking up a Glossy Autumn that I am purchasing there~!

That is all of the updates I really have at the moment! Questions? Comments? Leave your comment or question below and I will get back to you the next time I log in! :D

Starting a Running Thoroughbred Breyer Stablemate Conga Line!

I am starting, as the title says, a conga line! I am making a running Thoroughbred stablemate conga line! I got one of these Running Thoroughbreds from the live show I was recently at last month and I just ordered a different one off of Ebay! The new stablemate should be here in about a week or less!

I will keep you updated!
