Greetings from the New Land!

[Cij Daoke]

Hello all folks from all worldwide!

My name is Felipe, I'm a 25 years AFOL from Brazil. I am mostly known as FelipeDescomplicado, which is my Flickr account profile name and also my current nick in LugBrasil. I attend Tourism course, in UFMG. I also study French now - I took seven years of English course in my teenagehood, though I've never left my country.

Nowadays, I work as manager in my father's eletric shop - mainly powertools and domestic machinery. I am also a Musician, every weekend, and have ever played in very different styles - from gothic, to brazilian popular, passing by Jazz standards and indie rock, though Heavy Metal will be always my home!

I've been a Lego fan since a kid, though I had few sets. In the late 80's Lego had a factory in Brazil, so prices were nice and every kid in those days knew Lego, if they had none. But after some years Lego left the South America, and after some more years a Importer took the choice to distribute TLG products in Brazil. Conclusion: prices are overrated, not everything is available - seasonals and that kind of stuff are impossible, there's no P@P nor Shop at Home. We always will have Bricklink worldwide, but I can't handle a two month waiting time so I usually buy from one or other shop that sells with some discount and also some AFOL friends who sell something to help their own collection growth. I the extreme case of "Want much, must have" I do go to regular shops and buy market-price sets, but always with some sorrow in my head.

I am mostly a Vehicle small-scale builder. I'll share some of my work:

Yes, I have a thing for Trucks and wide loads

I am also a Sci-fi and Starship fan

I had always came to Eurobricks looking for information, and taking longtime looks over the customization articles. I had bought some decal paper, but hadn't had the right time and inspiration to start minifig custom, but that's something growing in my head!

Today, I signed for Eurobricks for Historica. It's amazing what you're doing, I got to known it from some friends which are already signed up and starting to show themselves. I think we will be using a brazilian flag, so we will be all recognizable to you.

I had organize a Monthly Castle Challenge on Lug Brazil, we're up to the fourth edition; We are still a little group but we have the will and we're all in constant growth! This month's challenge lays upon "Mystic Monsters". My dear friends Fantu and Pizinho are part of this team. They're both Avalonians right now, Fantu had done a war-lion for our Challenge and it's representing thy colours right now!

I'm myself will go for Nocturnus! To show you I have already mixing with dark forces singe the begining, I show you this:

Lord Malvadex - the well known evil Wiz - is already assembled to my Nocturnus small clan, we'll be kicking some seriously Avalonian, Mitgardian and Kaliphilian megablocks very soon!

Thanks everybody for your time - such a long presentation - and I'll meet you in the Historica battlefield!

(Just loved how the word that refers to 'human behinds' changes to MB! Sorry for swearing...)
