the clock was a great base though, I made it deeper with some plasticard to give it some more bulk when it stands alone, continued the fancy edging bits with mixed success and added a rear access panel so an obvious door exists in game (I know the Masters TARDIS opened at the front when it was a clock, but this looks nothing like that clock anyway so there...)
and of course, it had to be black with silver and bone trim... perhaps a little more Pratchet than Who, but I like it...
obviously the column was more popular with the later Master, but always liked the computer bank... a working chameleon circuit means it could be anything, but this'll do for me...
it's half of a Copplestone Castings KissKissBangBang databank (cheers for the cut Ian), which unfortunately isn't that great a cast... lots of edges and angles on the piste as it were, made more obvious by the cut - also removed the two rows of round lights/buttons on the front as they were completely off kilter, just put a thin bit of plasticard over the open space as another panel...
changed the access panel at the back into more of a door, again with plasticard and the thing isn't a bad size against the old Ainsty Police Box... after struggling with various 60's/70's computer suite colour schemes, finally went with a plainer grey/black - the more garish colours would work better in context, as this will be plonked anywhere, it just stood out wrong, grey/black may not be accurate but it makes it his...
the console is an OOP resin model by Ainsty that you may be able to find somewhere (nudge nudge) and is a fair copy of the mark 3 console used during the 4th and 5th Doctors run - I went with a pure white console as opposed to the silver of the original so it leant itself more to the other eras... the walls are a prototype space ship interior by a company that shall remain nameless (although I'm sure someone will know and blab - I just figure there's no point bothering the poor man if he isn't able to do production versions as planned - of course thanks due for letting me have them) - they aren't an exact match for the roundels, but then again, the roundels were never an exact match either (being at various times photocopies, salad bowls and all but none existant). Having recently watched the Planet of Evil, these are actually much more interesting...
the size of the room again is more in keeping with the Hartnell era as opposed to later eras, but allows for better figure placement... the interior door has a door on the other side, should I ever progress with my vaguely planned dungeon crawl interior, but for now this is more of a display piece I guess... I have an idea for a piece to cover up the wall monitor with that strange transporter pad affair visible in the 1st Doctors TARDIS, but that may keep for now... the hat stand is made from plastic rod and bits of a plastic lettering set (O's, R's and J's if you must know) - other furniture will no doubt be added as time progresses... which seems in keeping with the Doctor really...
took far too long to finish this really, but that expanse of pure white is a real bugger to do and I had to take a break from going snow blind...
Liz was sculpted from the story The Silurians, so the Doctor is in his black velvet jacket and cape as worn in that same story and throughout that season.
Jo was taken from Day of the Daleks, which meant annoying bloody red and black plaid shirt which was done and redone and redone again over about 3 evenings... still working on a more colourful later 3rd Doctor.
UNIT finally get to the front of my rebasing queue... again just need the bases varnishing and some grass...
