Zorglub Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 (edited) Hello everyone, I'm happy to join your forum that I've been following for some time as a simple visitor. I took up modeling again after a few years (too many): and, you know what? I still love it! My main interests are planes ( aviation ? ), and more particularly what has at least one engine (but it's not an exclusive interest). At the moment I'm more attracted to ( ex) "Soviet" models. As for the scale: 1/72 is my preference. I would try 1/144 later. I also like the 4 wheels in 1/24 ( but it's on break ) Although I learned English - or at least the basics - during my schooling, I'm not sure it will be enough, so I hope you will forgive me for my translation mistakes and the help of a translator (but not G's). Thank you Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version) Edited September 7, 2020 by Zorglub 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to use Google translate a lot, as I don't speak very much French (even though I have lived here for 15 years). Anyway, welcome aboard from Dept.79. John.

You're making yourself understood perfectly well with your various skills Oh thank you for those words, and also for those words in French! Thank you. By chance: would you have learned French? 8 hours ago, Bullbasket said: I know what you mean.

A friend of mine gave me a much better translator than Google's: it's DeepL. It's far better for me:👍 If you try it, may be your years in France will help you to compare Edited September 9, 2020 by Zorglub 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My French is horrible - I have a French O level from when I was a boy, but other than a few sentences, I can't really speak it anymore. It was 40 years ago, which is terrifying 😭 P.S. I got your email about changing your email. I'll have a look at that and reply soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry, I tried several times but I finally found a solution : I tried another e-mail address which worked immediately, the others never received anything ( neither in my mails, nor in the spam, nor in the junk, i don't understand why ) I'm glad to be back now ( ... words said by a newbie 🤪 ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sound like my kind of modeller Martin Great! you too are interested with the (ex and new ) red star jets ? I did have a US airplane period (and I'll probably do some more) but I got a click for the "eastern" airplanes, jets. I have, among other things, started the transformation of a Su-27 into one of the Su-27M prototypes (ex-Su-35: sukhoi project named T10M). A lot of scratch was used for it ( there was maybe a better way to do it ) But I must admit that I am far from having the know-how and the success that I have seen here on Britmodeller. i want to progress and do better, and more better etc...

RidgeRunner Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Yes, and I am building a 1/72 MiG-21UM at the moment. :). I have a MiG-21FL to build, a Bis and a Su-7BMK. I love the older jets! Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
