Alasdair Ryan Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 TechnicBricks should really interview more great builders ! I am waiting patiently........ Quote

jorgeopesi Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 I have met Paul several times and he is a very pleasant person to be around. Very humorous guy. And also a great car builder, nice!. Quote
Conchas Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 TechnicBricks should really interview more great builders ! Certainly! I even have a list of names... (just remembered to add another one) Just don't know how to cope with everything flooding my head... It really takes a bit of time to handle everything until I can have everything ready to put interviews like this online. Worst part is when everything gets agreed, questions prepared and sent and answers never come... I'm talking about AFOLs, not LEGO Designers, despite one interview still pending (just to make it clear). Also for you to have an idea, I think I had agreed this interview with Paul almost two years ago, and just know it came to see the daylight... But things always happen when they must do and always at the best moment. And a few others were talked even before than that... Paul is however not the first AFOL interviewed at TBs. Nathanaël Kuipers was also interviewed in the past (ok he was also a former LEGO Designer). And we have helped with some other AFOL interviews, for HispaBrick Magazine (more to come). So don't loose your hopes. Someday I may come out with some more interviews. website is down for me atm... Weird! I'm pretty sure the website has not been down. Anyone else experiencing problems?

Blakbird Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 And we have helped with some other AFOL interviews, for HispaBrick Magazine (more to come). Right, Hispabrick has also done a bunch of great interviews with Technic builders. They even interviewed me once! I was pretty proud that in this issue the two interview were Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen and me. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=44665 Quote
88high Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 I have met Paul several times and he is a very pleasant person to be around. Very humorous guy. I wish I could meet Paul Boratco in Person! It wouold be great< but I am across the country in Arizona. Quote

I was pretty proud that in this issue the two interview were Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen and me. http://www.eurobrick...showtopic=44665 And that was exactly one of the examples. In this case even part of the Q&A were published also TBs, because we helped with the set of questions to submit to Eric. http://www.technicbricks.com/2010/07/tbs-techtalk-03-interview-with-blakbird.html Quote
