I've made two more drinks for the Porta-Mugs, on the left is a strawberry frappuccino, and the right is an espresso with art (I need to improve on my espresso art skills!). I also made them for the mugs, because who wouldn't sit down to enjoy a strawberry frappuccino? I'm very happy with how smooth… Continue reading Strawberries and Coffee

Wires & Hours
The final two elements of this level of the TARDIS console are finished! I feel like this is a (small) milestone, completing these two elements. First is this hourglass, which I imagine is for more than just measuring the passage of time. It's not exactly the same as the original, but it still looks pretty… Continue reading Wires & Hours
Project Roundup
First, I re-made Sarah's Thirteenth Doctor pants because I wanted to adjust the fit a little and I wanted to put pockets in. The pockets are lined with the same fabric that's inside the coat sleeves - which I thought was a nice little connection between them! I've also been crocheting some leaves from this… Continue reading Project Roundup
The Eyes Have It
From unpainted... ...to painted... ...to in the TARDIS! I don't actually know what this device is called, but I've been calling it the 'Eyes', because I assume it's like a microscope, something used to see things. It reminds me a little bit of Wall-E, especially his face. The Eyes don't move, but I imagine the… Continue reading The Eyes Have It
Cuppa to Go
The range of Porta-Mugs has expanded with a burst of colour! Every colour of the rainbow is now available with a mug for every taste. All the bases for the mugs that aren't white match the sides' colour, which I'm very happy with. Some of the colour combinations were tricky to get right, it took… Continue reading Cuppa to Go
Amplify
From this.... (it reminds me of a dinosaur head!) ....to this! The TARDIS microphone, complete with stand. I reckon I could have made the painted lines neater, they're a little wonky in places! Of course, the microphone is removable. I imagine the bit under the handgrip was once as silver as the microphone head, but… Continue reading Amplify
Porta-Mugs
The latest invention to enter the mini-world is Porta-Mugs, re-usable takeaway mugs. The lids are purple to match the bands, though it's a little tricky to get a good picture of the colour! I do plan on having a 'drink' in the cup, though I still need to do a little experimenting with that. Here's… Continue reading Porta-Mugs
Let’s Go
Nearly finished assembly... Sonic-ing the final few screws... ...and it's attached! This is the lever that gets pulled down to start the de-materialisation process that lets the TARDIS travel. Of course, it moves. This was the one part of the TARDIS console that I definitely wanted to have moving parts. It's a little difficult to… Continue reading Let’s Go
New Angles
I added an additional wall to Sarah's room to give me more angles for photography, but it is very blank. So what do we do? Add art and a bedroom door, of course! The door is paperboard, and I imagine the rest of the apartment lies beyond it. I'm really happy with the doorknob, because… Continue reading New Angles
The Smallest Time Machine
It's definitely the smallest time machine I've ever made, that's for sure. Even if it's only one small component of a time machine. Sarah offered to paint this for me, it is believed to be a device that shows what the exterior of the TARDIS looks like at any given time. It has a silver… Continue reading The Smallest Time Machine
