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?

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
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

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.
