Vietnam firebase diorama at the Brewer Brothers Show at the U.S.S. Iowa 18Sep16

Redleg007 · Sep 25, 2016

The AZ Joeheads 1/6th scale hobby group were invited to do a diorama for the Brewer Brothers Show at the U.S.S. Iowa 18 Sep 16. We had been working on this diorama for the past 3 months, with the principal design and building done by Alex. Here are links to the 130+ pics and video of the Vietnam firebase we displayed. Over 1,400 sandbags were made and used to build the display along with real metal barbed wire. This was a large diorama that we intend to keep building upon for future shows. Enjoy!

The entire photo album in full resolution can be seen here:

Nicely done, guys!

Glad to hear that you're planning on adding to it for next year as well!

Well done on the set-up!

Looks like a ton of fun.

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.

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