The second Princess Academy badge is done, one year after the first one! There's a fair bit of symbolism in this badge, all pulled directly from the book, but the main bit is the bunches of miri flowers on the sides. I want to incorporate these little pink flowers that the main character, Miri, was named… Continue reading Two of Three
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
Mid-Year Book Haul
I realised while photographing this post that I haven't done a book haul since January, so these are all the books I've added to my shelves in the last 6 months. My friend gave me this Doctor Who comic and Captain Marvel on DVD for my birthday, thank you again! These two duologies were books I… Continue reading Mid-Year Book Haul
Marvel-ous Bag Tag
I'm pretty sure you've seen this before, I originally made it as a badge before I finessed my technique. However, you definitely haven't seen the other side! The old Captain America shield badge has been turned into a bag tag, with this Winter Soldier circle on the other side. And the loop on the top.… Continue reading Marvel-ous Bag Tag
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
