Happy August 23!
For those non-Doctor Who fans out there, umm... this won't make sense. For all those out there who have been waiting ALL YEAR: ooooooo WEEEEEEE oooooooo!! xDDD
That's right! It's Peter Capaldi's turn to take over as one of the most beloved characters in teevee history and being a Capaldi fan pre-Doctor Who, I'm over the moon to see him in this iconic role.
In celebration of the premier episode (TODAY!), I made a thing. If you'll remember, I played with etching brass a few months back and The Doctor was one of my experiments. I finally decided to make a pocket watch lariat necklace.
First, the watch...
Watch detail - vintage clock face with clock parts suspended in resin. I think I may do a collage treatment over the clock face as well... I'll have a think on that...
Reverse side - Twelve etching surrounded by Czech black faceted stones suspended in resin
I wanted to keep the translucency of the resin so you could see through the watch and see the gear details floating around. :)
Next came fashioning a sonic screwdriver from a few beads. I love how this turned out. :)
Add a fancy TARDIS key and the components are ready for assembly!
Finished lariat necklace
And it's reversible!
So there you have it! I'll be proudly wearing my newest creation for "Deep Breath"! Squee!!!
UPDATE: I just watched the first ep. and all I can say w/o spoilers is holy fuckballs, we're in for a ride. :D
