my friend adrian painted this for me on a big roll of paper and put it on a bathroom door in my house as a birthday gift. I left it there for 2 years because it was so cool
The Cybermen are a fictional race of cyborgs who are among the most persistent enemies of the Doctor in the British science fiction television programme, Doctor Who. Within the context of the series, the Cybermen were originally a wholly organic species of humanoids originating on Earth's twin planet Mondas that began to implant more and more artificial parts into their bodies as a means of self-preservation. This led to the race becoming coldly logical and calculating, with every emotion deleted from their minds.
They were created by Dr. Kit Pedler (the unofficial scientific advisor to the show) and Gerry Davis in 1966, first appearing in the serial The Tenth Planet. They were featured numerous times, up until the show's cancellation.
Following the 2005 revival of the show, the Cybermen returned with a new origin story in a parallel universe, in the 2006 series' two-parter "Rise of the Cybermen" and "The Age of Steel", and have been recurring villains again ever since. A further redesign took place in the 2013 episode "Nightmare in Silver", showing technologically advanced Cybermen with the same origins as in the original series,[2] depicted as being able to instantly upgrade themselves to fix flaws and weaknesses.
The species also appeared in the Doctor Who spin-off Torchwood in its fourth episode, "Cyberwoman" (2006). Cybermen have also appeared in 2010 installments of the Doctor Who video game series The Adventure Games
The Who Shop started on the 1st of December 1984 in a warehouse in Wapping. As well as attending conventions and events all over the world, including the likes of San Diego Comic Con, The Who Shop has evolved and regenerated over the years into its present incarnation in Upton Park, East London.
Run by wife and husband team, Alexandra and Kevan, The Who Shop, has been featured on numerous Television programs and news articles.
With the added TV & Film museum, The Who Shop has become a haven for all things Doctor Who for over the last 30 years, welcoming visitors from all over the world through their doors.
We have on display actual props from the old and new series. With the amount of stock we have, it is definately a mini-Tardis.
As said to us: 'Not just a shop more a mini-museum!'
Another stage of my Thames Path walk. This is a five mile stretch that I did from Kingston to Richmond.
This is near Ham House.
Now with added Shoelaces!!! I made this for my little boy - well me but he asked if he could have it and I'm a nice mum :) It was finished and waiting for him when he woke up this morning but he complained that the Doctor didn't have any shoelaces! So I added them.
This a card I made for my daughter's boyfriend (a huge Dr. Who fan). I am using a set from Viva LasVegas Stamps www.vlvstamps.com/index.php/plate-925.html . I came by this via leads from Charlene and Daria. Thanks again to my fellow card makers.
Organised by my good friend Lee Hunter, this was Teesside's own premier costume, comics and sci fi event. What better way to spend a Saturday than making over 1000 people smile. Thanks to our star guest, the gorgeous Femi Taylor (Oola in Return of the Jedi), everyone who attended and who took part for helping to make the event such a great success - you were all TU4-some!
People ask me why this Tom looks so good, I did repaint the face with finer details such as the teeth, the eyes and added 'fake highlights.' When I was a wee kid I used to paint my Citadel miniatures in this way by adding highlights where you shouldn't. This photo was taken on a macro setting and the figures don't usually hold up to such close up scrutiny.
The RICC costume contest was great fun this year. Boston's Deadpool was a hilarious host and the judges Bellchere, Destiny Nickelson, Jonny Ruckus, and Abby Fellows did a great job!

Sin and Greel have the time capsule, all they need to complete their plan is the life force of their victims!
Kris is ten, here he is represented as Dr Who, sitting on top of the world.
I used Lorraine McKay of www.extraicing.co.uk 'Heads up' turtorial. Well worth the money.
Custom hair for both of the figs. River Song's just needs painting, but the Doctors needs a little more putty as I over-sculpted it.
River song has a chrome torch made from a lightsaber handle, while the Doctor sonic screwdriver is Tan aerial cut down (needs some detailing)
First of all, yes, I know 15 is missing, be patient, it'll arrive once the effects are finished.
There was something of an emotional crisis in the house over New Years, my six year old daughter came to terms with her first regeneration.
While I'm not the biggest Doctor Who fan, it has been (and for most British folk definitely is) part of my life for a very long time, I do love it but not to epic Whovian levels, although quite close. I've loved David Tennant stint and really do think he's been the best Doctor. Even my dad, who was there the first night Hartnell stepped on screen in '63, thinks he's been the best and I know my little girl would certainly agree.
She wasn't really old enough to notice Ecclestone and hasn't been old enough to watch all the episodes (I recently managed to find out that she had sat through most of 'Blink' on her own while I was putting her sister to bed and wasn't scared at all, that kid is hardcore!) she has fallen in love with the 10th Doctor. I tried to expalin regeneration to her and prepare her for The End of Time but she was in tears when it became time to say goodbye and, lets face it, there was a lump in my throat too.
So, she's used some of her Christmas money to buy her very own 'Tarness' as she calls it.
It goes to bed with her at night, softly glowing and scaring the hell out of her younger sister.
Of course, I NEVER play with it.
Ahem.
Added a sepia filter to make this photo appear older than it is. The box itself has obviously been there for a number of years, surprisingly it has a new sign and lock so I think it is probably still used by the local police.
A quick moc up of cyberman getting a zombie conversion ... All it's just he normal pain it would take to get a cyberman conversion
