• 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.

We had a great time at the show this year! Tons of great displays put on by the club and a great selection of vendors with all of your 1:6th scale needs!

If you missed our show, sadly you've probably missed the last 1:6th scale show that will take place for a while given the current state of things - and we'd very much have appreciated you showing up.

The club especially appreciates the following board members who took the time to get up from behind their computer desks to actually make the trip to particpate and/or see the show in person:

Andrew (crusader1xxx), Chuck, (hansalbin), Phil (granatwerfer)


Also, a big shout out to Cory (panzerallan) - this was Cory's 10th year as a friend and a vendor at the club's FIGURECON.


More show photos are available on the club's website.

Check them out here:

Finally, we hope you enjoy the photos and be sure to check it out in person next year!

- The SSCC



BEHOLD, THE SHOW!

George and Scott's Modern US Diorama:

Continuing the story from Scott's diorama last year, this year a Saudi arms dealer is extracted by the convoy after the extraction choppers were shot down. The convoy is ambushed by insurgents and a Czech national who is the Saudi arms dealer's number two man. PMCs were sent in via the convoy to rescue the downed chopper pilots and the special forces team.

Juan's 3D Printables:

Juan displayed his amazing collection of 3D printed weapons and custom figures from nearly all the combatants of WWII. He is working on a line of custom 1:6th scale uniform/weapon/equipment sets from the more obscure combatants in WWII that the major manufacturers will never produce. He is constantly updating the 1:6th scale collecting community on Facebook with his fantastic creations.
