"Everything ends, and it's always sad. But everything begins again too, and that's always happy. Be happy." -12th
This was a really fun project, I just wished I had some extra time to correct the ears so the sunnies can sit right in.
I learnt a lot of new things and might make a second attempt in the future with less excessive cardboard to punch through. 🤣
It was the first time I tried to style hair with cardboard. So a huge shoutout to @rachaelstott because your hair tutorial and work on Capaldi's DW comics helped me a lot. 🤌✨✨
(Might try to do more detailed photos as requests but I have to work with what I got. 🤌)

"-One day, you will linger in the same place too long. You will sit too still or sleep too deep. And when, too late, you rise to go, you will notice a second shadow next to yours. Your life will then be over." -12th Doctor (Peter Capaldi, Doctor Who)
This has been a 2 month project where I decided to do a bust study of the angry Scottish floof monster space grandad for my sculpting class.
I'll post a complete version soon, art class has been kicking my ass with assignments. 🫠

Rewatching Truman Show for the first time in a long time, and the detail that’s stuck with me this time is the set design.
The characters drive modern cars and hock modern products, but it’s all presented with a veneer of 1950s wholesome applecheeked Americana. Truman’s life is presented as an escape for the audience from the drudgery of the modern day, and the aesthetic they’ve chosen for this is the post-war economic boom. This is the simple time, the movie says. This is the good time. Doesn’t the modern day suck? Let’s go back and see our friends from the days when life was good.
And it’s a lie. Truman’s life is a lie, and the image of white picket fenced suburbia they’ve presented is a lie. It’s an elaborate construction to recreate a false memory that’s comfortable for advertisers. The movie is a satire, but it’s also a very blatant statement against the nostalgia for a golden age which never existed. It’s a lie. It doesn’t exist.
I don’t know. I’m spitballing. I’m biased because I despise mid-20th century Americana and I naturally treat it with hostility, but it’s very gratifying to see a movie kind of agree with me.
Thinking about Donna's desktop computer having a big sticker right on top of the screen saying "DON'T UPSET ME, I'M RUNNING OUT OF PLACES TO HIDE THE BODIES" which is probably the most Donna Noble thing ever.
