A few updates over at the world's best 6mm blog by a grown man calling himseld 6milPhil…

*Horsa Combat Command Set: GHQ's sexiest set finally finished.

*Big Production Drive, or what happens if you try to knock out bases like Stalin.

*Military Odyssey Show, just why spodding is joyous and a pile of photos to prove it.

All this and plenty more waffle;

Shameless advertising ;-)

Nice site 6milPhil, the Horsa's look very nice.

Are you going to leave them like that or set them up on a "just landed" diorama base?

p.s. How did you get the earth colour on the paratroops bases?

Hey Phil, did you see the Horsa Skyraider does that is landed and in two sections and hollowed out? I admit the detail is not up to GHQ's but it is great for landing zones.

Phil, is your kitchen roll Bounty/Plenty?

6milPhil07 Sep 2009 10:35 a.m. PST

Ssendam, I'll leave them as is so they can be mounted on flight stands for when they're coming in, and then laid on the table for when they've landed. On the basing I'm doing a piece on bases following your question in the comments…

Green Beanie no I haven't seen those, have you got a link? The front of the GHQ ones are hollow, but I thought better of it.

AB Benty… you know the one with the bearded elephants dressed as housewives…

After being enticed into this thread by the title, why do I feel cheated?

6milPhil08 Sep 2009 6:38 a.m. PST

Did you click through Jeremy?

green beanie09 Sep 2009 5:54 a.m. PST

Phil, I found their webpage here in the TMP manufactures directory.

Re "Did you click through Jeremy?"

Sorry Phil. That's why I felt cheated.

6milPhil09 Sep 2009 8:53 a.m. PST

Green beanie yep I found them, some interesting bits no one else makes too. skyraider1992.tripod.com

Well Jeremy next time try to be more relaxed, perhaps dim the lights and have a glass of wine first.
