Hello!

Hi everyone!
My name's Magdalena, I'll be 25 soon, and I'm from Poland.
One of my main hobbies are model horses, which may be said to be somehow related to the miniatures you know :) I collect model horses in various scales and by various companies - maybe you have heard names such as Schleich, Breyer, or Collecta. I even have a unicorn made by Grenadier/Mirliton (which needs some repairs before I paint him).
Anyway, this hobby is almost unknown in Poland, and I'm trying to "promote" it - about a year ago I started probably the first and so far the only forum for model horses collectors.
The important part of this hobby is customizing - model horses are often repainted or even re-sculpted to change/improve their original look. Since I want to try customizing myself, I try to get to know about various useful materials and techniques. And that's why I've registered here - I hope you will help me with some technical matters. Other than that, I probably won't be writing here much, though.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask :mrgreen:

Thanks everyone for the welcome! :)
I think I'll stay here a bit longer (this place seem really nice so far!), and show my works when I finally sit down to make some customs - both in Polish and English sections :mrgreen:
