Doctor Who Build

[okiwan]

for you doctor who fans on the board. i havnt seen this done before so i decided to make the river song diary. but dont look inside...spoilers. ;D

here is a screen shot of the actual book.

pic i modeled it after

this is the book a used. found it in the attic an was never going to read it. also the pages were yellowed as the book is old so i figured it would make a good donation.

cut up a paper towel roll and a postal box to create the hard cover and binding

glued smaller piece on larger for binding

create binding

attach covers and binding

ruffled up pages to give it that worn look

painted a flat blue then melted design into paint with soldering iron. then filled in design with touch up paint of a darker color. then resprayed light coat of the flat blue. then used a water color black marker rubbed on the tip of a glove the rubbed on the book to create a worn look.

all done. still not 100% dry but i couldnt resist taking a pic an posting.

i wanna build a tardis next.

Impressive. You do deserve a C, how long did it take you to do all that work?

a few hours cause i had to let it dry between coats of paint. if you dont count the drying time, the actual work was probably 1.5 to 2 hours. filling in the design with the darker blue touch up paint took the most time.

Make sure to put the universal time code in there. As you know, the last thing in the book, the conclusion of all conclusions will be... 42.
