About Copperfox
Copperfox is a British brand of model horses started in 2014 via a Kickstarter. The aim was to produce British breeds of model horses. They started with three moulds and have since expanded with three more moulds.
The models are produced in both plastic and resin. The plastic models are sold painted in limited runs, although blanks and seconds are occasionally also available. Resin models are sold blank for owners to paint. The resin models are also available in a smaller scale than the standard 1:9 scale range. Special run models have also been produced as prizes for events.
Copperfox stopped trading in 2018, the Shire and Shetland models were only ever available in resin and not plastic.
