a Tardis for the Master...
« on: September 29, 2009, 09:25:07 PM »
finished the Master's Tardis...



obviously the column was more popular with the later Master, but always liked the computer bank... a working chameleon circuit means it could be anything, but this'll do for me...



it's half of a Copplestone Castings KissKissBangBang databank (cheers for the cut Ian), which unfortunately isn't that great a cast... lots of edges and angles on the piste as it were, made more obvious by the cut - also removed the two rows of round lights/buttons on the front as they were completely off kilter, just put a thin bit of plasticard over the open space as another panel...



changed the access panel at the back into more of a door, again with plasticard and the thing isn't a bad size against the old Ainsty Police Box... after struggling with various 60's/70's computer suite colour schemes, finally went with a plainer grey/black - the more garish colours would work better in context, as this will be plonked anywhere, it just stood out wrong, grey/black may not be accurate but it makes it his...

I'm normally all over Who-stuff on the forum, but I've only just got to this as I've been on the road for work the past fortnight... But brilliant stuff, and a very 'in character' job, very Pertwee-era. Makes a nice change from a grandfather clock, anyway.

I like the back view too - that murky off-white makes it look like the Master is hiding in the fridge we used to have in our grubby student flat back in the day!
