It’s very exciting for me to hear about the rest of the model horse collecting world. I am still very new to the hobby and every episode I learn more and more and my... more

  • Love it!

    I seriously love listening to this podcast! Though I’m an established painter in the model horse hobby, I feel very much on the fringe as a hobbiest. I’ve not been to a show in over a decade, and since the shift away from message boards, I’ve found it hard to find that central source of news in the hobby.

It is the perfect companion while painting, and I’m feeling a bi... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Mares In Black - Episode 130
Q: What advice would you give aspiring model horse artists today?
Never stop learning, embrace failure as a teacher, seek help when stuck, and surround yourself with people who lift you up; share your knowledge as you learn to grow the entire community.
Mares In Black - Episode 130
Q: When did you move from basic painting to oils and sculpting, and what drove that shift?
I transitioned from spray paints and quick fixes to oils to achieve lasting depth and durability; experimentation, watching others, and the need for longevity in pieces pushed me toward a more advanced medium and resin sculpting later on.
Mares In Black - Episode 130
Q: How did you first get into the hobby, and what was the early days like?
I started with a seven-year-old's curiosity, painted models at home, and learned to run shows in a living room; the early days were about exploration, learning by doing, and finding mentors who shared knowledge openly.
