A new thread devoted to links

Posted by Gowan on 08 Feb 2012, 03:42

I do not know if this is a good idea or not but here it is...

Could there be a thread or sum forum devoted to links that would be useful for moddeling. ie. shops, manuafacturers, blogs and any other sites where you can buy 1/72 scale or smaller figs or find tutorials on how to make terrain, how to sculpt ect, ect.

This is not me demanding for something I am mearly proposing an idea ;-)

Do you mean like this? ;-) Not 100% complete and needs bit taking out. Also it would have to be administrated and made a sticky post, I´ve put it here viewtopic.php?f=15&t=10207

when you say not 100% finished do you mean it is going to be added to the forum or that is your own list you have not finnished?

It´s easier than you think..just have a word doc open as you surf... and copy and paste.

It is a "borrowed" list which I keep on file..you can use word to open the links as you are online. It´s not complete for a couple of reasons..one it´s old..so some of the links may be dead, two due to being old it misses some new links and three, as it was a project I never completed..it´s incomplete :-)
As it gets used the dead links will be removed and the list added to.
