Hey everyone, so I've been on a binge watching PB Props and Batmanmarch's TARDIS model kit videos over the course of this week and I've gotten inspired to try and make one of my own. I'd thought I'd document my journey on this forum as I go along. This is my first, ever, time doing something like this but, I'd like to give it a go never the less. And, not let my doubts and anxiety take control and miss out!
I'd also like to mention that, I'm not a traditional artist. I've drawn quite a bit in the past but I wouldn't say that I'm a good drawer. But, I've dabbled in some papercrafting during the lockdown. I think Doctor Who Adventures (the YouTube channel, not the kids magazine) made some templates of some TARDISes and Daleks. And for what it was it turned out okay. I won't have the slight advantage as the regular traditional artist or model maker would have when constructing something like this but, I guess it's the taking part that counts!
As the title of this topic states, I'll be attempting to construct the AWJ (Arwel Wyn Jones) TARDIS box. The box used by Jodie Whittaker, David Tennant and Ncuti Gatwa in the show. When I first saw the design of that box, I was quite young at the time and I just really hated it
. But overtime & growing up that box has grown on me and it ultimately became my top favourite box design! And I'll really be sad to see it go when that box retires eventually. I'll be getting the model kit off of Jamie Bate's website and it'll be in scale with the Character Options 5.5 inch figures. It'll go really well with my 14th & 15th Doctor figures in my collection!
So, I'm just going to wrap this up as the first post is getting a bit lengthy. If any of you folks in the forum have any advice on starting out or tips on constructing the Jamie Bate kits do let me know! And which brand of paints and brushes that'll work really well!
