It\'s been a while

So I thought I\'d do another figure as an Xmas present for a DIFFERENT friend this year, and they really like Dr. Who.

And as soon as I saw this little fella from Hasslefree I thought he\'d be perfect

So here is my progress (1 night only!) so far:

Good Job for 1 night! Will be fu to see how he turns out

 

[DaN]

He\'s lookin\' to be one of those super-quick jobbies lol

I have NO idea about the base though :/

I\'m not (And don\'t have the time) to do a diorama base with a TARDIS or anything, but then I can\'t think of a base that says \"Dr. Who\" ...

Unless I can sculpt a cyberman head or something lol

Any ideas peeps?

How about a deck grille with some retrotechnogubbinry underneath?

 

[DaN]

Ah yes - of course. Cheers Un.

 

[Undave]

It\'s a shame you don\'t have time to add some twinkly lights.

 

[DaN]

Hmm... Now that depends on how fast I can get hold of a surface mounted LED... Installing it the base shouldn\'t be too much of a problem as long as I can also find a sufficiently small switch for it.

(And a working soldering iron)

 

[freakinacage]

er, isn\'t he from heresy?

 

[Undave]

Failing that you could always opt for the psychotic robo-Santas. It is for crimbo after all lol

 

[DaN]

Yes! HERESY! Not Hasslefree - both beginning with H

HE IS FROM HERESY! Sorry

 

[DaN]

Ok, got the LED I ordered, but it might be more difficult to implement than I first thought...

Funny voltage, (3.5 - 4.2) but then I dunno what voltage those little coin batteries are, so...

Have to wait and see how it turns out, but I think the painting itself is pretty much done, however, it\'ll be a while till I can upload any more pics because...

A> I can\'t find the camera

B> Something is wrong with the home phone line and I am YET AGAIN without internet at home

Joy.
