This is my scratch-built replica of River's blowtorch pistol from the Doctor Who episode Time of Angels.

It's scultped from styrene sheet and Milliput, using screencaps from the episode and the BBC production art for the grip detail.

That image is of a Derringer DA38 9mm pistol.

Here is some info on it. http://www.amderringer.com/das.html I noticed it has the exact sizes so that gives you measurements to go off considering the prop is obviously based off that gun. I know there are a few differences on the barrel and the rest is probably another gun or custom, but still.

Nice work on yours, it looks great. I was thinking, maybe you could get one of those gun lighters and install it in the model somehow, so it does look like a welding torch :p
 
I'm guessing the BBC would have 'borrowed' the design, rather than detroying a $400 firearm. At least I hope so!

Modding a pistol lighter is tempting...:)

Yeah they probably just made a cast of that barrel, modified it slightly and made a custom handle and grip for it.

EDIT: Here is a good picture of it opened up
