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
Strawberries and Coffee
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
