Neckties!

Any chance of the "The Impossible Planet"/"The Satan Pit" tie. It's one of my favourite tenth Doctor ties and even finding "close enough"s is proving nearly impossible. I know a lot of Who fans don't think much of it but I'm rather partial.

What does everyone think?

Hey Indy and others I skimmed through most of the sixty three pages hoping I'd find some general info. But I'm curious how to guesstimate tie width from screen shots. Any tips or tricks?

I'm finishing up Johnny Mo's sword from kill bill and the crazy 88 sit and tie is the next step it looks to be flat semi-matte black but I'm not sure if it's a slimmer or wider tie. I think medium slim but I wanted to go to the experts. I think I've found a pretty decent belt and buckle. We'll see.
Any advice would be appreciated
 
For ties, you start to get a feel for the widths based on other ties but you can do some estimates depending on what is in photo with the tie. The easiest thing to do though is to photograph yourself wearing different width ties and compare to your screen grab to see what matches best. Sometimes going with a wider or thinner tie than the original can actually work better if your body proportion is different from the original actor.

Thanks much that is actually an exceptional idea

After this one it looks like you will have done all but 3 of the Tennant ties, can I ask if there are plans at all to do the final 3? Like I said, would love to have them all! :)
 
This tie is worn by Damien Darhk from the new season of Arrow and if there is any interest, I think this tie would be really cool to make. This is the only picture I have found that is relatively clear. I cannot determine if the design has a slight green color to it with a black background or not. Anyway just an idea. I'm not sure why it is not showing up as a larger picture, I guess you have to click on it to enlarge.

The prototype for the Hannibal Tie came out so badly (colors were just fubar) that I'm too embarrassed to show it. I'm going to have to draw this one by hand and start from scratch.
