Bending aluminum strips from a sirop can into shapes with plieres usualy, but this time i tried some finer almuminum comming from some old neoprene glu tube. It's lighter in color and more corrosion résistant. I'm thinking of doing the achor lantern with that same matérial. And may be the one for the series 5 tardis.
Btw thx for the compliments and for following my posts^^

First panel done, 3 to go and 2doors.
I need more wood tho, especialy the wood for the posts, base and roof.

Then i finaly got my hands on some 13mm wood stick, so i cut the posts, sanded the edges round and glue some 1mm wood planks. I thought i would have to canibalise again some Windows i'm made (a hole other project, short story: it's what you think). Then i just put everything together.

Also, i bought some paint.
I tried and mixed up some sample to choose but i forgot to bring em to the shop, so i've chosen something that looks as close as the clear light shots of the box looks. And i'm pretty exited to test it. IMG_20201230_010641_314.jpgIMG_20201230_010640_649.jpgIMG_20201230_010638_742.jpgIMG_20201230_010637_340.jpg
Those are lighting test shot. I wanted the paint to look acurate throught the camera first. That's the way i find colors, so far it did me good.
