It appears that next year is year of the Croi!

Check out the 'special' vintage club model (this is the one you can choose to purchase if you wish).

Definitely getting this girl :) So happy I rejoined the Vintage club for next year, the horses look beautiful.

2017 Flagship Model

Well we knew it was going to be a pinto Croi but pictures finally emerged yesterday of next year's Flagship model.

Isn't she just gorgeous? I'm going to have to get one of these in from the US I think :D

Black Schleich Black Forest

Weird title...

Anyway this pretty little guy was finished off today. Yes I know he's another black but he has such a rich coat and the colour does kinda suit him.

Just look how much depth there is to that black, he's just gorgeous!

O and look we are having some lighting success at last! I have made new camera and new flash work together in harmony to make a dun horse not look yellow

Cross Country Jump Tutorial

I did this tutorial on Instagram (mainly because I left my camera at my mums house) but you can also now find it on our Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/pg/chestnutridgemodels/photos/?tab=album&album_id=10154236520616482

It will show you how to simply adapt the Breyer Cross Country Jump (which you can find for sale here: http://www.chestnutridge.co.uk/cross-country-jump-34755-p.asp ) to make it performance ready.

Basically just lollipop sticks and card! It's a really lovely jump. Think I'm going to have to invest in a decent tack set and rider for 2017 now!
