Southern Cross Studios

My name is Valerie Martinez. I've been "into" model horses for most of my life, having been introduced to them at a very young age. My favorites are Breyers, but I do have a few Peter Stones, Hartland and the little Hagen Renakers on bases. I do some customizing, but most of my 200+ models are OF Breyer. 

This site is devoted to my tackmaking. I've been making tack for 15+ years. I specialize in English style tack for Traditional and Classic sized model horses. Most of my saddles have been of the Hunter/Jumper variety, but on occasion I offer dressage and saddleseat saddles as well. I usually offer my pre-made tack on MH$P and eBay, and I also accept custom orders.
