Can anybody post some images of Gallifreyan writing? I know that I've seen some from an art book or something, and there's probably more elsewhere. I made a leather wrist band a while back with the Timelord logo (or whatever it's called) on it and I kind of want to cover the rest of it with other stuff (like the design on the pocket watch, etc.

Do you mean New Series? I would like it as well, if anyone knows anything.

Here are three examples from the new series.

Gallifreyan Text (the middle item is the same as the fob watch):

Gallifreyan Notation:

Master's Ring:

All of these pics are from Department Six, which is a company created by six designers from Doctor Who to sell high quality art prints of their production drawings.

I've been considering getting one of the sonic screwdriver prints to complement my MFX replica, but they are crazy expensive. :cry

On the other hand, it is an opportunity to let the designers of the props get some profit from their efforts. :cool

Thanks! Some of those prints are absolutely beautiful. I'd love to have a full poster size of that one of Gallifrey.

I would be all over the police box blue prints but for 200.00 for 15 inches including the mounting border in a bit much. It still would be pretty cool though.

Or you can join the TARDIS rebuilder Guild and the TARDIS builders forum and get the building plans for free..unless of course these are like frameable blueprints you are referring to.

An example I remember from the old series: Gallifreyan (language) - Tardis Data Core, the Doctor Who Wiki

It shows "modern Gallifreyan" in a note written by the 4th Doctor in the serial "The Deadly Assassin".

In the second edition of The Making of Doctor Who

I believe that there are some examples of Old High Gallifreyan text.

The Doctor's Calling Card, as seen in Remembrance of the Daleks

The Doctor's message in The Deadly Assasin

The Most Worshipful Law of Gallifrey prop from Shada... Making My 4th Doctor Costume

The sign beside Rassilon's tomb in The Five Doctors

It says "Dig hole here" in the Doctor's handwriting, in Battlefield.

You may be interested in the "circular galifreyan subreddit" found here: Circular Gallifreyan

It includes a link to software that will let you write anything you want, in a language that matches closely what you see in the art on the show.
