River Song's Sonic Screwdriver Complete (Pics in post 1)

arwa proudly presents River Song's Sonic Screwdriver. I just need to add a little more black antiquing to the white handle and seal the other areas with an acrylic matte no-gloss spray.

I only made one error in the bottom section which is the 3 rings just below the two gold rings. I ran out of room :confused I guess my measurements were a little off :lol I don't think it turned out too bad though. The pictures really don't pick up the amount of detail that went into it.

I haven't decided on the display yet. Fake Doctor Diary to hold the both of them. Mock Tardis front. I used the paint program to put together a small pic of River and the Doctor for what ever I do, but one thing at a time I guess.

I can honestly say that everything was made by me on this thing. Other than the main body, I spent a total of 40 cents on greeblies. Everything was found or made/modified by me :D :D :D :D :D :D

What do you think???? Am I close or off?

:thumbsdown or :thumbsup ?

I added the do-dads to the emitter section and did some work on the ring. No weathering has been done yet. I used pieces of copper for the top do dads, and may leave them instead of coloring them the brass color. I can't wait to beat this thing to hell :lol . Oh, I also added the red stone too, but I don't the picture shows it.

Does anyone have a good shot of the emmitter light? It isn't the same as his regular screwdriver. It almost looks like a small pyramid, but I haven't seen any shots that show it from the top down.

Also, does anyone have any ideas on what was used for the brass ring for his-her finger?

Everything else is coming along nicely :D

Thanks, I guess I will have to make do with what is available :D
 
Re: Future Sonic Screwdriver

Anyone have any idea about the finger hole? So far I have done:

-The emmiter minus the mold, blue section, and side fins. (I even have the little bar on the inside too.)

-Main Body
-Top handle section/plate area
-Red stone underneath the plate
-Two fins that pop of the side of the handle.

I need to find the rings towards the bottom before I can proceed with very bottom as well.

All it all it is going a lot better than I thought...

Re: Future Sonic Screwdriver

The blue emitter appears to be domed but stepped. As for the brass finger ring? I think it looks a lot like one side of a small pair of scissors.

Here's the best picture I could find.

Re: Future Sonic Screwdriver

That is the same picture I have been looking at for the past few days. I was thinking a pair of scissors as well for the ring, but I haven't come across the right size. There is supposed to be a huge "Bananza" tomorrow through Sunday, so maybe I can find the necessary greeblies there.

Pictures are coming... :D

Update 7-31-08



The pictures make it look crappier than it actually is The rings I had to custom make. That was probably the hardest part so far next to the top.

It looks like it is starting to take shape. I can't wait to beat the crap out of this thing :D

Thank you. It is a pain to find/make these parts. I think I am going to have the side section on the emmitter done this week. I am probably going to make them out of brass scraps.

I am not sure about the other pieces yet. I am making this up as I go.

I am almost done with trigger ring too. I built around the silver ring in the picture above and connected it to the acrylic section. It is really rough right now with a lot dinks and divits. I may leave it that way and just sand down/ smooth over the section closest to the screwdriver body.

It is very awkward to have in my hand. It is like using a pair of scissors on the opposite hand that you would use.

Looks great! Hopefully we'll see that official repro soon from millenium/eFX then we can start the mods.
 
Re: Future Sonic Screwdriver

I know it has been discussed above, but does anyone have any idea about the light section?

I know it is stepped (thanks for the pic above), but I don't know where to look for it.

Is anyone else working on one of these?

Re: Future Sonic Screwdriver

Everything is done, but I still can't figure out what the light is.

Anyone?

Re: Future Sonic Screwdriver 8-6-08 99% Done: NEED HELP THOUGH (Page 2)

Looks like an old-style power lamp cover to me, got something extremeley similar on my vintage oscilloscope.
