Title: Give me your 15mm scifi blogs, your forums, your many links yearning to be read
Post by: nheastvan on August 09, 2016, 12:33:18 AM

So I've heard that 15mm sci-fi thrives online primarily on blogs and other various nooks and crannies.  So where do I find them?  What's your favorite?  Blog?  Community?  G+ community? Yahoo group?  FB group? Anything you think should get my attention as someone returning to 15mms sci-fi.

A lot of the 15mm SF blogs can be accessed from Dropship Horizon's links, even though it's a lot quieter there these days.

Tiny Solitary Soldiers was one of my favs (though sadly inactive now):

Well worth trawling if you haven't seen before though.

The Brigade Models blog is worth following for their new releases.

This is another fav:

That's the one I linked to. For some reason, it has Stargrunt in the title, but is now THE sci-fi 15mm Facebook group.

There's a 15mm sci-fi group on Facebook thats very active.

I keep requesting access but since I don't use FB for anything but groups and don't have friends or shares or whatever, the admins just assume I'm a spammer and won't approve me.  

I sent the group founder a message.   We'll see.

Edited: that worked!  Awesome.
