Olivier 1980 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 (edited) Hi, My name is Olivier, i am 39, official in a ministery, and i am a « big scale » fan. I have a Pocher Aventador roadster and Huracan not started yet. I discovered this forum, and i was very impressed by few members like Ron (Silver911), Roy and few others. Impressed by the skill level first. But also by the way of writing/chatting, the ability to help and give brilliant ideas. I also liked the forum itself of course as it is very complete, well done and including a lot of big scale projects which i like. And, i was searching people able to help me to produce custom PE parts for my cars, and few customs machined parts too. I don’t know if it is the right place but it is also one of the reasons for me to choose Britmodeller. So i decided to come here and register, for my futur projects, with my poor english (sorry for that). I hope to know better the forum soon and i thank the owner to give me the possibility to be a member. All the best and kind regards from FRANCE Olivier Edited August 15, 2019 by Olivier 1980 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olivier 1980 Posted August 15, 2019 Author Share Posted August 15, 2019 Hi Harvey, Thank you. My skill level is not as good as i would like. That’s the main reason to register on Brimodeller. It is a great place to share experience and tips with the advanced modellers here! I wish i will have a lot to discover.

Olivier 1980 Posted August 17, 2019 Author Share Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) Hi Mark! 😂 ok sorry! I thought you’re visiting France for holidays! 😁 As in french, Mark is written Marc, and you speak english, in a Great Britain forum, i made this conclusion, or i can say now that i made this mistake in fact! Are you making big scale Models? Edited August 17, 2019 by Olivier 1980 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Hi Olivier, yes, a Brit in France! And yes, I am focussing on 1/32nd scale aircraft now, as well as the Trumpeter 1/200 H.M.S. Hood. And yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olivier 1980 Posted August 18, 2019 Author Share Posted August 18, 2019 Hi Mark, I am a car and motorbike fan. I like the fighter planes and war ships too but i found them much harder to built than cars. It is not possible to make everything so i prefer to focus on cars. I especially like big scales, such the 1/8 scale modern Lamborghini from Pocher and few other models from Deagostini or Eaglemoss. I like to built them with transkits, upgrades and mods if possible! I also plan to built the 1/4 Ducati motorbike from Pocher which is expected to be realised in october! I am a biker myself so i have to buid one of these fantastic motorbike kits! Are you making fighter 1/32 jets or civilian aircrafts? Best regards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i can just say that i am not able to built this kind of models! The skill level needed is, in my opinion, much higher than what’s needed to build a car! The details, the technical specs, the number of parts! It is just incredible. I can’t build that kind of models. Honesly, my big scale car models are much easier to build i think...😅 Edited August 18, 2019 by Olivier 1980 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
