• 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.

Several weeks ago I got my Ah 250.

I got some inspiratition from one of Ron Volstad pictures from the Wiking division in Hungary 1945.
Even though i plan to biuld an 250 version alt 2, not a neu build.

Some of the first set of pictures I took when I started.

I started with the Ammo storage and the Bench inside.

Got caught up starting some of the exterior stowage as well.

The ammo storage locker is looking really good. The 1/6th kit art you used for inspiration is one of my favorites too. Once upon a time I used a Bobby Panzer wrap to bash the officer figure. I always thought he would have made a good general release figure.
Keep the progress coming.

Thanks for the nice comments.

Here are som more work in progress.

Exterior stowage "completed"

Interior more finished.

Floor cut up and "pattern" sheet applied to look like metal flooring plates.
Not 100% correct type but will look "nice"

Looking good, I began ripping the inside back out of mine once you sent me your dimensions on the bench seat and compartment behind it. So far everything is coming along nicely. I just need to find some of the plating stuff for the floor.

Update again.

Transmission and cover update.

This took a much longer time to build than anticipated.

Lots of bolt and detail to make it look ok.

Few good picture to go from.

I realize my pictures could be better.
The old camera was used.

The new camera is used mostly by my wife to take pictures of our baby daughter for some strange reason.... :lol:
