Panel 6 is done. DONE, I tell you! This loopy wire is black on the actual TARDIS, but I wasn't bothered painting it, so it's yellow now. I wonder what the big red switch does? Or the quartet of little silver ones below? That's been half the fun of making this - "ooh, I wonder… Continue reading So Close

New Views
In-between TARDIS panels, I've been able to whip up a variety of new backdrops, first off being a large white brick wall, because the white brick backdrop I had been using was very small. Look how much larger this one is! On the back, I have some parquet wood, for flatlays and such. Then, I… Continue reading New Views
Panel Five
Panel five of the TARDIS console is done! I like the switch and the wires behind the purple tube, they look really cool. I might add some buttons to the plain gadgets yet, but I think that's for another day. Final checks on the dials. There were a lot of little pieces to wrangle for… Continue reading Panel Five
Project Roundup
I've nearly finished making another badge, this one's for the second Princess Academy book as I just finished re-reading it. I think I made the first badge over a year ago, so I'm determined to finish the trio of badges this re-read. I've also started panel 5 of the TARDIS console, which at the moment… Continue reading Project Roundup
Four of Six
Panel four of the TARDIS is done! (Those white dots look a little like eyes...) I could only find one reference picture for this panel, and the angle it was taken from covered the top of the panel, so I had to improvise a little. I love the clear, curved 'glass' - it was very… Continue reading Four of Six
Halfway There
The third side of the TARDIS console is done - we're halfway around! At the top there's a light - I believe it does move on the real TARDIS, but I realised this a little late! The buttons on the black box were a last-minute addition, as it was a bit plain before. Now we… Continue reading Halfway There
Tiny Toolbox
I've noticed that some basic tools are needed in the mini-verse, so I assembled a few in this toolbox. Inside, there is a tin for nails and screws, a hammer, sandpaper, a tape measure, a screwdriver, and an extension cord. The sandpaper is bronze on one side and yellow on the other, and I also… Continue reading Tiny Toolbox
Lights & Dials
Side two of the TARDIS console is finished! I really like this adjustable light, the concave design is very unusual (sadly, it is not actually adjustable in miniature)! We also have some teeny tiny dials which were a bit of a challenge to paint, as they are so small! The only thing I have that… Continue reading Lights & Dials
Cup-a-Soup
Recently, we've needed something to ward off the chills, so I made mini Cup-a-Soup! Or Soupa, in this case. These mini soups are based on an actual powdered soup product that I've eaten before (it's delicious), and I've been wanting to make it in miniature for a while. Mini Soupa and maxi Soupa! Sarah was… Continue reading Cup-a-Soup
TARDIS Updates
I've done a fair bit on the TARDIS, I've put all these wire details in on the yellow bits (which look really good!)... ...and I've been making progress on the first of the console sections. The finished (ish) section! I do want to add one or two more things to this, but it's pretty good… Continue reading TARDIS Updates
