As regular visitors to www.87thScale.info you have probably seen the showcase pages in which we show pictures of 87th scale models and dioramas. If anyone has pictures (.jpg preferred) of models and / or dioramas he / she has built...... e-mail them to us ! (If you do not have the possibility to send digital photos, contact me off-list and I'll provide a snail-mail adress.) |

With pleasure. Check and use the photos you want. membres.lycos.fr/teamaoc2003/Go to pages 5 and 6. (The website is in French.) I stop playing GP3 soon, and after having moved 2 times in 2 years, I am completing my new working place soon. Projects: - No more F1, but Concept cars like Peugeot Oxia and Quasar. - Practice (and practice and practice and...) moulding Best regards to all of you, Olivier. |

Olivier,
thanks for the link, we could certainly use the pictures on the site. Building F1 cars would make a nice theme for a special as well by the way, do you think you could write a story about how you go about building these models ?

Skunk,
First of all, welcome aboard ! ;D
I for one hope you do get that digital camera soon, your choice of prototypes is very interesting and models after such relatively unknown prototypes deserve to be seen !

- Practice (and practice and practice and...) moulding Moulding? So you will make your models (commercially) available? That would be awesome! |

I am sending you a short article with photos about I made these F1 models. Hope you can publish it, and it can be useful on your website, and for everyone.
Moulding ? The F1 models are unique. Very hard to mould. Just see the article to understand why. But I like to make Le Mans models. Easier to mould.

And to sell them ? Well, no. Thank you for your compliments. I really appreciate. I stopped counting how many times I have been asked to sell one or some of them, but I have no plan. Give me some more years to practice.  and maybe... |

That's an impressive story. I never would have thought of using soft acrylic for models...brilliant handiwork!
Thanks for sharing. ;D

Dear Sirs:
I want to invest on a digital camera/scanner next because it seems that I have several unusual/not often seen models.And if I got onto the bus station diorama,I surely would like to send photos.......
I also know of a diorama from a Highway Patrol station and UPS terminal dioramas;these would be an interesting adittion to this site.......................
