I have built the First Doctor's TARDIS both Pilot and Final.

Also I'm switching to a beveled base than a "brick" base. Was the prop beveled at the base? I think so.

Here's my new build of these Tardises. They're much more accurate now.

So I look at my 'Season 2/White tube Lamp' and saw I used a cylinder instead of a flat block so I updated. Turned off neon and shrinked it

Actually, if you have a Roblox, you can play it here: https://www.roblox.com/games/332712098/60s-TARDIS-Building or https://www.roblox.com/games/213588406/2005-Rebuild-TARDIS-Exterior-Building They are open so if you get the chance you can play it.  ;)

Tried Roblox's new feature of custom brick colours and tried to replicate the blue-green tinge of the hartnell TARDIS. I had to resort to Roblox's Navy Blue before because there was no colour that matched Hartnell exterior colour at all. Now I am able to use that colour.

Advice will be appreciated although it would take awhile just to recolour without saving the colour.

It appears that Roblox has removed outlines...which means everything blends in with the same colour. I wanted outlines to be able to see the center-post of all four sides. Well, that is no longer possible. Hopefully they'll re-add it (which the chances are slim).

"Where there's life, there's hope." You can always send them an e-mail (or whatever they use for customer/user feedback) explaining why those outlines are so essential, and request them to put that feature back. A polite asking - while giving a good reason - can go a long way (unless you're a Verizon customer; then they couldn't care less about your opinion so long as they get your subscription fee while they continue to drop your favorite channels in favor of major network "channel packages", which usually include 3 dozen sports channels!).

Here's a comparison between with and without outlines

The top picture is from February and the bottom is from October.
EDIT: I was trying to get things smaller and crop things out but on a Mac this is not possible...sorry

TigerMan, does this help at all?

                                    Old                                                                                New

I used Preview on my Mac to crop the "Old" image to a 400 x 400 pixel area. Then I cropped the "New" image to a square area that was as close to the TARDIS as I could (in relation to the area of the "Old" image). Then I resized the "New" image to 400 x 400 pixels to get it as close to the Old image as possible. (I'm guessing you were going for a side-by-side comparison?)

Anyway, I didn't change any resolution, brightness, contrast, etc. I left all those alone and just resized the "New" image, while cropping both to get them to the same pixel size. (Does that makes sense?)

Thank you! I didn't know how the cropping of the preview worked.

It's not all that difficult, TigerMan, though when I first started using it for the simple photo editor it is, it took me a bit to figure it out. So for you and anyone else using a Mac that only has Preview for a photo editor, I'll work a little something up that shows how and post it in the Tutorial Section. It will just be basic cropping and image resizing, but those seem to be the important things, and what Preview is used for most (at least what I use it for most).

There are a few other features I'll mention in there as well.

Well, why can't they blog post about it? It was always on by default...I can't do this anyway since my home computer got borked and I have to reinstall Windows.

It's time once again to use this one:

Hopefully you can recover your work, TigerMan.

Figured I post this since this is a Hartnell exterior.
I had made a Massacre exterior before but it was a bit inaccurate (which is quite ironic  :D)
Now I'm in the process of making another one and this is the start, this will become the left and right elevation of the box, and I now know the back seems to be a piece of unpainted wood or cardboard or something.
