Looking Great!

I am envious of your shed.  I would love to do something like that.  Keep it up I really look forward to seeing how this comes together.

Cheers

Almost finished boarding the interior  ;D started painting the interior today, the door are done just awaiting for signs (picking them up tomorrow) the light box above the doors is also done and ready for the gallifrayen text sign to be placed in  :) the windows are also in the doors and I've started work on the phone :) I'm very happy with how it looks now  ;D

fantastic eddyc  :)

I'm still looking for some gold ones I saw your Atom Accelerator thread and it' a beauty! I feel worried about making my one as I feel I need to get it right, it's become such an iconic part of the 11th Doctor's Console!

Hello everyone, now Christmas is over I have started to crack on with the console room  :) The shed is boarded out and ready for painting, also have power to the shed and the light box is finished  ;D however after much thought and realizing that 11th Doctor's console (2010) was so risky and almost impossible build at the very last minute before I did anything permanent I decided NOT to built the 11th Doctor's Console from 2010 - 2012, the build is too difficult and consists of specific angles that not even my dad could figure out, however! I'm still building a TARDIS console room that will be my own design  :) brought some wooden balls to re-create the Hartnell Levers, and a load of push buttons and flick switches, I will be keeping the parts for the atom accelerator, the phone, typewriter, levers and scanner which will all be on my console, but here are some pictures  :)

I'll change the topic name too! thanks for looking guys, more coming soon!

Yesterday some switches arrived which I am very happy with :)  started to cut out the parts of the console which shes almost ready to be assembled, the console design/shape is vaguely based on the original console.

Started to paint it yesterday, painted it all white which will act as an undercoat so it should only take 2 coats to cover with the final colour.
Brought the paints today and been painting all day! and i was right it will be needing 2 coats to cover the white! didn't take any pics today but here are some of the buttons and the console room painted white, enjoy  :)

Judging by the quality of your doors, the console should be a joy to behold!
