Hello everyone!
As I'm posting since a week now, I think it's time I should introduce myself!
My name is Jean-Luc Formery and I'm living in the north-east of France near the German border.
My own story about modelling is the usual "after a break of xx years I returned to the hobby to see how modelling had improved".
To see what I'm focused on, just see the picture below!
See you in the forums... Jean-Luc

Bienvenido amigo.
I haven't much interest in aircraft but that's a fine collection there.

Salut Jean-Luc,
fine to see one more French flag waving here at Big A, the best modeling site IMHO.

Welcome Aboard Jean-Luc,

Hello Jean-Luc
Glad you found us. Some beautiful planes you have made there. I like to build one now and again myself.
Enjoy your time here.

Hi all!
Merci à tous le monde!
I 'm building mainly in 1/48 scale LaFleche and WWII... Tamygawa, Monovell, SpecialMiniature or Accurate Airframes... Mainstream or limited kits... Axis or Allied... basically everything with a propeller!
I try to build one Kit/month and managed to do it since two years now. So I decided to build the kits Out Of the Box and try to make the best with the plastic provided! What is missing or too obviously wrong is replaced with scratch! This saves my money for other kits and improves my modelling skills!

Jean-Luc,
Welcome to Armorama! We have had quite a few of your countrymen sign up this week. If you were not aware of it yet we are endeavoring to build a French-speaking section of the site as well at
fr.armorama.com. So make sure to introduce yourself there as well.
Merci,
