I've been (vvveeerrryyy) slowly painting the TARDIS console, this is the progress made in about a week and a half from when all the yellow was done. To get this worn metal effect, I painted two coats of black and one thin coat of bronze. I love it, I think it really suits the aesthetic… Continue reading TARDIS Console Progress

Project Roundup
The TARDIS console is slightly further along than it is here, but I've begun painting it! I'll add a bit of orange to the yellow crystal in the centre to give it depth, and paint the underside metallic bronze. The embroidery hoop is also coming along, I've started the coral reef on the side as… Continue reading Project Roundup
Happy Birthday Sarah!
Today is Sarah's birthday! I made a chocolate cake to celebrate (her favourite kind), with white chocolate roses on top. I also thought to celebrate, I'd share some previously-unseen photos - outtakes from photo shoots, as well as some that aren't from photo shoots. Let's go! I think this one is an outtake from a… Continue reading Happy Birthday Sarah!
Project Roundup
I haven't been working on a lot recently, but the console remains in progress! The white shapes in between the thin white 'spokes' have been added, and as a result, the TARDIS console now looks a little like a flower from above. The new shapes are slightly raised, and will have the various knobs and… Continue reading Project Roundup
New Styles
I finished the khaki jacket! I embroidered two patches onto the arms because it looked a little plain otherwise. On the right, there's this little crest I made up: And on the left are these arrows (?) that I've seen on similar jackets. I would like to put something on the back eventually, but it's… Continue reading New Styles
Project Roundup
I'm still chugging along on the TARDIS console, I'm doing a lot of little structural details at the moment, and I'll hopefully be painting soon, if it isn't raining! These little curved supports were so fiddly! I've also started this khaki-coloured jacket that will also test the jacket/coat pattern I made (after how many jackets… Continue reading Project Roundup
TARDIS Updates
I've been in the process of making the TARDIS console, and it's finally begun to look like a console, instead of a fancy post. Before and after sticking the flower petals panels down. Sarah for scale below! It's quite tall, I was hoping to store it in the TARDIS exterior, but that's not going to… Continue reading TARDIS Updates
Marvel-ous
So, I saw Captain Marvel yesterday, and loved it, so I had to make something. Sarah's very excited, as you can see. (I tried to replicate Captain Marvel's glowing energy hands in my image editor with, ah, interesting results?) The ribbon is glued on, which makes the front of the shirt quite stiff. I would like… Continue reading Marvel-ous
Sonic Downsized
Sarah's 13th Doctor cosplay is finally complete, with the completion of this teeny tiny sonic screwdriver! Sarah's very excited, and has been re-creating the promo pics in her mirror for a while now. Here it is compared to my official one, you can see the size difference! My little one is just under 3cm long… Continue reading Sonic Downsized
Apron Making
All week, Sarah and I have been cutting out pattern pieces... ...checking pockets are aligned... ...sewing seams galore... ...to make an apron! With a very handy pocket at the front, for random spoons or timers or a phone for reference pictures. (Sarah's very proud of the pocket.) This will become very useful, as the last… Continue reading Apron Making
