TARDIS by Old Crow ( Ainsty)
« on: May 29, 2007, 05:33:38 PM »
Just painted up a few Tardis models I picked up from Old Crow.
They are cast in resin and you get a choice of "Normal" and "Clear".
The moulding is very good, with no airbubbles and at £2.50 each they are brilliant value!






They are not listed on the site but if you contact Jez I'm sure he can sort you out!

You better have printed out the Police Box signs.
If you painted them I'm coming round to damage your hands  :twisted:

Very, very nice shading!

Now, while I´ve never ever seen a single complete episode of "Dr. Who", I just WANT an army of Daleks.

Great job, I picked one of those up at Salute and they are as Pappa says excellent value for money and very nice. :)  
I have always wanted to know what it says on that piece of paper by the door. Does anyone know?

That's the phone hatch for the Public to use, the notice gives instructions for use.

Thanks for the comments  :)

Hmmm........Matakishi you rumbled me, my hands are to clumsy to paint so small so I printed the signs off.....honest! :lol:

Hey Malamute here's a pic I used for reference, you can see the instructions for using the phone.

They looks great, the dematerialising effect on the clear one is really nice.  :)

I got one of these from Ainsty years ago, mine had a little bubble on one of the signs, not too bad though.

Good to see Old Crow are casting clear resin parts now, hopefully the not-predators they adopted from Ainsty will be clear again soon.

I think you may find that the INAPS are in production:

Good stuff, I'll have to drop them an email and ask about the clear resin versions.

Also cheers for the labels idea, I'll have to give that a try once I figure out the scaling and printing business.
