• 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.

    TT Andrea HS Repaint (Oops)

    My continuing HS Repaint Series. Once I again I expertly demonstrate how not to re-paint eyes. Oh well. If someone wouldn't mind posting a factory paint job for comparison, as usual I forgot to take a 'before' shot. TIA.

    Painting Panzerwerk's House Dio?

    For those who picked one of these excellent pieces from Steve and have painted it I'm curious how you got started on the piece paint-wise. Did you base coat the vertical piece with terra cotta on the brick sections and work up washing a dry brushing various colors from there? What color...

    Tuchrock vs. Waffenrock

    You know I've got the reference books and was going over them last night, but I could not figure out the difference betweent the above referenced tunics. I gather the Tuchrock is the formal, 4 pocket tunic. Does that make the Waffenrock the later developed Fliegerbluse? Or is the Waffenrock a...
