    Smile TARDIS Kilt?

    Been a while since I've been here. Too long. To bring you up to date I have bought a house (maybe a mistake), gotten the best dog ever (best decision since marrying my wife), and cosplayed as Tom Baker TWICE this year alone with my friend Antares as a burlesque TARDIS. Which leads me to my question.

    Does anyone here own, or know where to acquire, a TARDIS modeled kilt? And I mean TARDIS, not tartan, in the blue with the windows, etc. I have become a Whovian, but I am still a half-mad individual and wish to combine the two into something unique. Something akin to a UT Kilt or Utilikilt is preferable.

    And if there are curious individuals I will post my Baker cosplay. I did quite well if I do say so myself.

    Zardoz is the man you should contact, he knows more about this kind of thing than any other member.

    Well I can't help with the kilt but as Tom Baker is my favorite Doctor I would love to see your get-up. When my son was in Jr High he had his aunt knit him a mile long scarf like Baker's and he wore it to school on occasion. I'm not saying that's the reason he remained girl-friendless until well into high school but it might not have helped.

    Hopefully some awesome Tardis kilt pics are forthcoming from the rabble too! Good luck on your quest!

    Here's a couple you might appreciate. One is our official cosplay entry and the other was just plain fun. Don't know why my face looks so fat. Must be the angle. Everyone taking pictures was at least 12" shorter than I am.

    biblemonkey: Good to see you back. I was hoping you hadn't dropped off the earth. I'm still waiting to spring for my part of that "Christian" tartan.

    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    I got so much negative feedback on that one that I dropped it.
