First the parts.20200213_132513.jpg20200214_125044.jpg20200214_125249.jpg20200214_125331.jpg

First job to do is fill the large vertical sink marks before construction can commence.20200214_153143.jpg20200214_153155.jpg

First couple of coats of paint on the main three sections and courtesy of John and another quick delivery I now have enough gold paint and I am surprised I only needed two coats.20200218_145057.jpg

It's certainly a different type of model, I like it. Hadnt heard of Dr Who until I came to the UK in 1977 aged 12, I did enjoy them the new ones however are, well a bit surreal, where have the old advissaries gone, daleks, cybermen etc, bring them back I say.....
