Whilst I've been documenting the progress of the TARDIS console on social media, I thought it was time for some more photos!
The foundations are complete, the central mechanism is working, and the upper control panels are nearly finished..
I'm looking forward to displaying it at our end of year degree show exhibition in a few weeks, and taking parts of it to london for the New Blades model making fare at the end of June!
Things are starting to take shape...
This TARDIS console is being designed and built as a final major project for university, and has many hours of research and design work behind it. Rather than replicating an existing design, we've taken inspiration from gothic architecture, designing our own console to include elements of cathedral architecture and stained glass, giving it a unique antique, gothic feel. This TARDIS console will be built full-scale, with functional lights, switches, levers and buttons to create an immersive and interactive piece! After it's initial exhibition, the console will be made available for hire, so that it can be used film projects or displayed at conventions! Keep an eye out for updates over the next few weeks.. Let the work begin!
