What Is META
Model Equine Tack Association is a hobby forum started by myself and a small group of 3 artists and hobbyists in January 2015.
This forum has been started to cater for those with a creative flair in the vast world that is the model horse hobby. We felt there was a need to have a more focussed and personal group for our creative endeavors that aims to be supportive, full of useful information and welcoming to new artists and enthusiasts!
We hope to cater for all artistic pursuits in the model hobby but our initial focus will be on making and showing model horse tack on our beloved models!
By no means does this exclude any other artists! we have sub forums for prop making, customizing and painting and doll making. We will look to expand these areas further if they prove popular
Many of us artists have spent years learning our trades and honing our skills! Here you may share that vast resource and help others on their journey as you make your own path in the hobby! ... you may discover something new yourself along the way!
If the forum does well in the next few months we would like to start a small newsletter/publication for members.
We hope this will help fill the hole left by the sad conclusion of the Model Horse Performance Magazine but also bring new and exciting endeavors!
This publication would hopefully contain tack making tutorials, hobby craft info, performance tips and suggestions and possibly other awesome things!
