Today was spent thinking. Ok. I have been drooling over the creations of Matt Smith's tardis and would LOVE to recreate it faithfully - BUT - reality must take over sometime. I can't spend thousands of dollars creating my tardis *cries* and I don't have a workshop where I can do all these fancy things.
So. I will not be painting my TARDIS with Subaru automotive paint. I am going to spend some time reviewing my options and trying out some combinations. I can try the Valspar Paint Crystals to give it a bit of shine. There will not be any gloss or semi gloss on my creation due to glare on photography. I would like to make it slightly metallic in sheen - and I will try to find the best option for making this happen.
Also, on the lookout for the lamp & anchor lantern for the creation. I found one of each - but the lamp base and top are a little more than I want to spend. I joined the tardisbuilders.com group and I hope to pick someone else's brain on the best option of what is currently available.
Too bad I didn't buy the lamp that they recommended two years ago. I didn't know I wanted to make one then! *laughs*
