My name is Ludivine and I am 27 years old. I have been passionate about the equine world since my childhood. I practiced horseback riding several times, for a total of about ten years. I did classic horseback riding, a bit of western, cross-country and some competitions. Today, I no longer ride.

I fell into the world of model making more than 20 years ago. Like many people of my generation, I grew up surrounded by Playmobil. Then I was offered my first real figurine: the Lipizzan gelding Bullyland. And I quickly discovered the Schleich figurines, which immediately pleased me a lot. This is how my collector’s journey began: at every Christmas and birthday, my list was filled exclusively with Schleich.

In 2010, I discovered the Breyer thanks to the blogs Skyrock, and it was a real revelation. That same year, I was offered my very first Breyer: the black Percheron gelding, Priefert Hitch Kong. A real crush on this model, for the big fan of draft horses that I am.

From 2017, I receive my first salaries and I slowly enhance my collection. At the end of the year, I realize one of my dreams: acquire my first resin, "Lunique de Falde", painted by Laurence Cassin, representing my favorite breed, the Trait Poitevin.

Then comes 2020, a pivotal year: I move in with my spouse and 16 traditional models. My budget allocated to the hobby is exploding. A year later, I am about 65. Until 2025, it is on average 33 models that join my collection each year. Today, my collection has 210 models at a scale of 1:9. I am proud of it and it fills me with happiness.

My passion has taken such a place over the years that it has become almost essential to my daily life.
