Tim’s Trumpeter 1/35 KV-7 {Lee’s Russian tank group build 2022}

[The Smythe Meister]

The "wee" folk would be sorely missed.....not too many GB's Tim!

I completely agree Rick!
Tim`s stuff is certainly "A Wonder of the Dark arts" to many of us.... and for him to take time out on his Awesome Figures would be a real loss to us all!:flushed:
I`m,(OBVIOUSLY!!),not a tiny,fantasy,figure painter..... BUT i DO have a few "Discworld" little figs that i`d like to attempt!!... SOO .....
IMHO .... If The TIMSTER wants to do a GB for "Liddle Figures"...... :thinking:......
..... THEN....... (Despite it being COMPLETELY out of my comfort zone)...... I`D BE IN :fearful:
...... C`mon Tim ...... !!

Wow, thanks! That was completely out of the blue……and it didn’t cost me a penny :tongue-out3: I’m a wonder of the dark arts to my wife as well, at least, I think that’s what she says LOL…..
I really don’t think this is a GB subject though. It is a niche within a niche…..
However, if it might help, I could do a proper SBS at some time after the two wingy GBs are over? Perhaps figure painting for non figure painters? Most of what I do is designed to get effect results relatively quickly. Could be useful for dio builders….Might do it with historicals to switch it up a bit though. Figure painting is figure painting, it’s just the colours that change…..

Cheers Scottie. Surprised it’s surfaced again…..it has been on the shelf a little while now…..

As always ..... completely understating your work Tim!!.....
.... BUT,i do understand your modesty ,
The SBS that you suggest would be very welcomed in my opinion...... however,i do disagree with your "A niche within a niche " comment, in my mind,this site is open to ALL types of genres..... and THIS ONE , i`d suggest,would get enough of us together,to get it up and running?!:thumb2:
Just my thoughts of course,but HEY.....
You only need 10 of us!!

Cheers Andy. Perhaps the way to go is to do the SBS, then see if there is much interest in a small figure GB, 1/35 and smaller perhaps…..

Superb Tim, love the shading and esp the exhaust stains.
Matron was very impressed along with the other committee members and has awarded you the .

Congratulations.

Congratulations Tim on the Dogs award from the race towers committee they are pretty stingy to when they give it out so you must’ve done something right

Congratulations.

Many thanks John, and my thanks to the committee. It must have been a protracted decision…..but I’m pleased they came to a conclusion.

Tim there was some dispute amongst some of the more purist members regarding the actual green , but Matron threatened to use her veto ( a sharp dig with the hypo ) and order was resumed .

[Tim Marlow]

Personally, I think the green is wrong as well. Just too Kermit. Though saying that, I’ve seen modern Russian armour in similar colours…..

I still think it looks very well. Seems like I’ve seen some like this before.
