I love everything about this: the interesting design of the console, the bookshelf with the TARDIS models (and sonic sscrewdriver and what I think looks like a Dalek eyestalk) on it. And that floor! It looks like the one in The Evil One's bedroom! (I'm proud of that floor since I laid it down myself while I was still in working order, so to see it rendered in a TARDIS console room is a WOW! factor for me!)

Great images! (You really don't have to post them with lightning speed, but do keep them coming when you can.)

Hi,

This is looking good. I am going to add a book case to my Tardis interior design also. We have both used a similar idea. My idea started with a 6 sided room also. Apparently 6 is a powerful number on Gallifrey.

Hello. No pictures to show because I've been ill with the flu. (Where's some Dalek antibodies when you need 'em).  Anyway, the floors going through a big overhaul, so I need to wait until my cold's gone away so I can do a full on update.

Hello! I'm back now. The flu in me went quite quickly, so I was able to work on this for about an hour.

Firstly, the floor has changed into a grate, with a sort of, metal underside.

and Lastly, I've added some Switches and Buttons, but I'm not really sure why I put them there or what they do. Hell, on this console, I don't even know what my panels are gonna do, except from the Flight Panel (which is not this panel)

This looks really great, good job. I like design of the floor. Also great job with the buttons and switches, but I don't trust that red button though :)

It's lovely work, but why is the mesh lower than the walkways?

the_prop_maniac

Don't you worry, LMC, I have a special place for that big red button ;D. Ex, I don't really know, because I wanted it sort of similar to the tenth doctors console.

Would parts of your floor open like the Eccleston/Tennant floor did or have the whole floor able to walk under? Just wondering  :)

I think at a point, I may decide to have a section open up to reveal a ladder, to go down into a sort of complex of rooms and corridors, but I could just do that on the main console level.

LMC, I've put in a big red button. I would be screwed, were it not for that glass case I put it in. ;D

Hello guys! I've been away for a long time, because I've been celebrating Christmas with the family. But, I should be trying to start doing this again within the next days (or weeks ???) Anyway, have a Happy New Year, and I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas.

Ahhh a red button. ARE YOU MAD?  ;D nah as long you have that glass there it will be fine. (maybe). Your console looks great.

Thanks LMC. Yes the glass is there, just because on my last one, someone accidentally hit it with their elbow and the TARDIS reset  (hence the new design)

Its been a long time...

Hello! (And well done if you got that reference ;D ) It has INDEED been a long time for me and I apologize. Around this sort of time is when I start thinking about GCSE's (which may or may not include this line of work ;) ) Anyhoo, lets get onto the update itself! I've finally chosen my exterior and it is the Newbery exterior! I chose this one because this would have been my fastest creation ever, was it not for the fact I am a HUGE procrastinator and delayed it. Anyway, I'll leave a picture and see you all later! I hope I don't delay this anymore then it needs to be.

Cool, it's bigger on the inside. Or is it smaller on the outside? hmmm. Are you doing Timelord Science for one of your GCSEs.  :)

Thank you LMC and no, I'm not. They only offer that course at the Timelord Academy on Gallifrey ;) .
