Description

It's been a long time. I've been tied up with this and that. Anyway, here are Tom Baker's and Christopher Eccleston/David Tennant's sonic-screwdrivers from Doctor Who. I used photo references from the show and my own recent xmas presents as references. Entirely modeled and rendered in Carrara.

Never actually seen the show, so I can't comment on how accurate these are, but they look great none the less! Almost looks like a photo!

The screwdrivers are cool, definitely, but I think I almost like your animated Maria head icon more. Metropolis is the best film in the universe, in my humble mind.

Okay, who is giving you sonic screwdrivers as Christmas gifts?!? I am so jealous! :) The new version is quite nice, but I'll always be a fan of the classic Baker SS. Top notch modeling and great to have you posting again! Happy 2007 to you.

Excellent work, I prefer the old one. I grew up on Tom Baker.

Ah... The current Doctor's get out of jail free card. Over-used and over-exposed. The 70s one is by far the most elegant in its sheer simplicity. Theses are beautifully done and look totally realistic. Brilliant (avoid the over-used 'fantastic' like the plague!)

Sorry to comment so late on this, but the world of Rendo is so large! Excellent modeling- a great subject to work on as well- the writing behind Dr. Who has always been so much better than huge budget productions that stress form over function and fx over storyline. I grew up with Tom Baker, but the new stories are really entertaining and well done too. Nice comparison between new and old- excellent models, and the render quality is top notch!
