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

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
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
TARDIS Console Progress
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
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
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
Finished TARDIS Exterior
Yay! The handles and keyhole are grey paperboard, and though the black sign door does have hinges, it doesn't open. The light on top is smaller than I'd like, but it's fine for now. I think I'd make it from rolled paper next time, because beads are a little too small. The biggest change since… Continue reading Finished TARDIS Exterior
Doctor Who Updates
My crocheted Thirteenth Doctor scarf is coming along, and I love seeing all the bright colours coming off my hook. The far right is where I'm at currently, I'm only a few stripes away from the big blue section now. The TARDIS has also been painted and had a few little details added to the… Continue reading Doctor Who Updates
