the new boy...

well this fella was waiting in the post when I got home yesterday, and I got a bit obsessed/possessed and finished him off this morning...

I'm aware that in my OCD painting session he's possibly a bit rushed... I'm not 100% sure on the face, but then thinking about it, I'm not 100% sure on Matt Smith yet either, so I figured I'd let it grow on me...

I am very happy with the shirt colour as a match to the source and the suggestion of a weave on the jacket works, but the jacket is a bit too dark... may have a crack at another one in time...

and finally, the new series trio, all available from Heresy...

another Master, another TARDIS

first off a big thanks to fellow Frother onebigriver who very kindly acquired a dolls house clock for me... which then meant I had to paint my decaying Master to do with it... not overly fond of the mini to be honest, the way the cloak looped around the hands always bothered me, so some g/s to hide that nonsense...

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...
