• Pardon the dust while the boys rebuild the site.

    The board will be in a state of disarray as I get things sorted out, for a little while at least.

    The new incarnation is using Xenforo as the system software. It is much like what we are used to, with a few differences. I will see about making a FAQ to help point out the differences for the members.

     

    One IMPORTANT difference for all of us old timers is that the 'mail' system is replaced with what are called 'conversations'/

    There is no 'Inbox' or 'Out box' or 'Sent' folders anymore.

    Think of Conversations as private 'threads' or topics that don't exist in a forum, that you start with another member. NOTE: Conversations can include more than one member if you or someone else in the conversaion, likes.
    Takes a little getting used to but I am sure you all can get a hang of it.

     

    Only a slightly modified default default Xenforo style is available for now. Once the new SAG style is ready it will be available.

    All existing users should be able to login with their usernames and passwords once the site goes up.

     

    If anyone has difficulties logging in please contact me at sixthvanguard@gmail.com.

     

    Thank you for your support and patience. I know it has been a loooong road.

    Hi Dave, sorry you're having problems - it sounds a bit tecchie so I'll ask Lizzie what the problem is. You're thinking of a now defunct UK site run by Winch. http://www.onesixth.co.uk is alive and well and thriving.

    Flat-Screens as Backgrounds

    I thought I'd mention this as it's so obvious it's often overlooked. Flat-screen PC monitors and TV's are great backgrounds for figures. Just find a photo on-line or freeze a scene on a DVD or YouTube vid, put your figure in front and away you go. I did this a while ago in front of a shot of a...

    Exclusive onesixth.co.uk Interview With Dragon Models – Not Out of 1/6th Just Resting

    As I think most people know, I am English but have lived in Hong Kong for 17 years. My home is just 15 minutes’ drive from the HQ of Dragon Model Limited (‘DML’), and for some time it had been my intention to try to get an interview with Freddie Leung, the President of Dragon Models. Since DML...

    DIY British Army ’37 Pattern Web Anklets

    Thanks, guys. Doug, I'm pretty sure that ordinary acrylics (I use Tamiya) will be fine on these, as the plastic is stiff anyway. The SoSoft is great for other stuff like webbing that needs to stay supple. I'll be posting an experiment I did on a Denison shortly, so you can see for yourself.

    Dutch Army Bren Gunner, 423th Battallion, Eastern Java, 1947

    Welcome! Really nice figure, and a really unusual one. It's nice to see a Dutch figure and one from Indonesia. Regarding the web anklets - I posted a tutorial on just that subject a few days ago - http://www.sixtharmygroup.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20763

    DIY British Army ’37 Pattern Web Anklets

    The 1937 pattern anklets, sometimes referred to as gaiters, were an improved alternative to puttees. Made of canvas webbing, they were uncomplicated and simple to put on as well as to remove. They had two main functions – to provide support to the ankles, and tro prevent water, mud, debris etc...

    Has anyone heard of a manufacturer called Three Eight Cover Rifle?
