Title: Middle aged Doc Savage or Middle aged Tin Tin ? (a new league.WIP.)
Post by: tin shed gamer on April 27, 2021, 04:05:33 PM
As the title says .I've not made my mind up for the direction of this small side project.
I converted the car and figure over a year ago. But to day I've been repairing and repainting old show display pieces.A boring and thankless task :?
So I was easily sidetracked lol. The monowheel suddenly and in inexplicably ended up been painted gold.
Which left me musing on a new league.As Im on the verge of another long grind of figure sculpting .I should be able to knock up a couple of extra figures.
Having just done a Cohen the barbarian style figure. I though it'd be fun to either do an aging Doc Savage, or an aging Tin Tin themed league to fit these ( and give them a function.)
So any idea's or preference?

A middle aged Tin Tin would be interesting to see  :)

Great looking paintjobs Mark. I have one of those monowheels screaming it's way to me across the Atlantic as we speak.

Another vote for the same here. Proper Tintin for post-war pulp instead of the ageless wonder.  lol

I'd paint both, but if I had to choose only one...Doc Savage.

I'd vote for Tintin getting his free bus-pass and old-age pension! Captain Haddock in a bath-chair with ear trumpet?

Tin Tin all the way.

I'd pay good money to read "The Adventures of an Ageing Tin Tin"

Does such a thing exist?  If not, why not?

A Vote for a ageing Tin Tin, Old Captain Haddock and Snowy Jr.
Heck, how about a Tin Tin in the war as well. Got many directions you could go with that. Could be a officers in the First Belgian "Piron Brigade", No. 10 (Inter-Allied) Commando, 5th SAS, SOE operative. Or even a fighter Pilot.  :D

Commissar Moody, TinTin in the war is an excellent suggestion  :)

So another Tin Tin, is the consensus ::)

Then the man of bronze is on the back burner  ;)

Just so long as he doesn't burn; a nice crispy golden brown should do nicely.  lol lol lol

Like the idea of middle aged tin tin.  Isn’t doc savage already middle aged? Although the older i get that definition keeps getting extended.

Your absolutely right Doc is technically middle aged.I was thinking slightly older looking with darker skin and pale green running through his hair rather than grey. Im musing over achiving something short of Cohen the Barbarian.But more lively than Harrison Ford's terrible. ' Road crossing Dad shuffle' that graced Han Solo's battle field return ::)
