Description FINALLY a close up of the cyberplanner that I just finished. ( My last one broke - as per usual) This one fits my face perfectly and goes on so much easier. I salvaged the lights from the previous one to reuse.  They turn on much easier as well. I am very happy with this one! And I made the cybermite and hand pulsar and painted the bow tie - as most of you know. lol

* This isn't a professional pic. We were playing around in front of a carnival, and snapped this. I really liked that you can finally see the cyberplanner. So may people have asked me to show a close up - well there ya go.  

You can see a full body shot in my gallery too - it is older, but you get the idea. 

*update:
To answer the question I get asked the most:

How long does it take to put on?

What takes the longest to prepare is my hair believe it or not. I think I might have put another hole in the ozone from the amount of spray and gels I have to use. lol No, seriously, I have a lot of hair.  It takes about 30-50 min to get it to look even a little like Matt's.  Cross playing is hard! lol 

then depending on if the cyberplanner decides to behave…. that only takes about 10-15 min to put on, and set. thats if it doesn't break in the process, which sometimes it does, then I have to repair it.  
So in total - I give myself about 2 hours to get ready, just in case. 

Now to REMOVE it - that takes longer. it is so fragile. I have to drip rubbing alcohol via toothpicks and q tips underneath every point of contact. Let it soak, the slowly try to remove it with the toothpicks. ( I "saw" the toothpicks back and forth between my skin and the cyberplanner) After about 20-30 min of that, I am usually ready to scream. lol By then it's usually just attached to hair, so I usually say screw it grab scissors and cut my hair.

sorry it took so ling for me to see this comment!!!  Yes, I sculpted the whole thing. I wish my lights were smaller, but oh well. maybe ill do another one. I just don't like when I see other versions of this with this huge wire sticking out their backs. I like that mine blinks. Pros and cons I guess.

That is amazing! I wish I had talent like that! How does the clay stay so strong? Did you use a special kind of clay, or coat it with something?

funny thing is that it DOESNT stay strong!!! It breaks EVERY TIME I wear it.  But I'm highly allergic to most materials so theres nothing I can do.

Ooooh my goodness. Neil Gaiman's episodes are some of the best, and they're always interestingly costumed. This is fantastic.

Yup. Not sure how else I would pull back all of my hair.

I wish DA would let us use photo comments... I'd post a pic of me when I'm not in costume. I have a LOT of hair. Lol

You remove the clips and suddenly you have a Tom Baker mop of curls?

yup. I crossplay as Mr Clever (and sometimes "regular" 11 too - I own every outfit 11 had except for two) I don't go for the more "femme" Doctor look - just not my style.  Bind the um, well, girls down, and off I go. 
I wish DA would let you photo comment! lol 

Let me see if I can find a link to a pic of me outside of costume…..

ok Best I could do as far as a link:

www.redbubble.com/people/lisar…

its my red bubble page - BUT my profile pic there is what I looked like before I dyed my hair and obviously I'm not dressed as a man.  Sorry - only pic out there in the public I think….
