Adventures in Time and Space

I just had this image of these two concentric circles in the blackness of space – one shiny, humbrol gold, the time ring, Voga, the orbit of Saturn, the Celtic inspiration for that symbol, the other a white hot patch, representing the constant threat of being blown to bits throughout the story.

By collaging Davros against the muto background, I think it gives the impression of Davros as detatched, blinkered, in his bunker.

Bleak. Nasty, brutish and short. And bleak.

Moody in deep space

It’s Tom! I’m not sure how successful the likeness is, but the impostant thing here is the sheer joy of painting He Who Grins Like A Loon! There’s something infectious about the personality of Tom’s Doctor, and I hope this comes across in the manic energy of the mark-making. I’ve always loved the trippy Annual illustrations of the era, and hopefully this influence will come out in due course. This, then, is my manifesto for sketching the Fourth Doctor era!
