Troughton Costume - The Coat!

Here's me in my Troughton Costume last night, after receiving my coat in the post. The coat hasn't been altered yet, I still need to change the buttons etc. It's only really a minor detail anyway, as due to the coat's shape I will most likely not be doing said buttons up.

Troughton Costume Progress

A lot has happened since my last costume update. I have the shoes, the shirt, the bow tie, the trousers and I am waiting on a mornign coat in the post. I even have an umbrella!
I may get a new shirt with larger collar, and wider braces that I can decorate to look like Troughton's, but otherwise I am all set! All I need are the extras! (recorder, diary etc.)

Failed Doctor Who Concepts - The Sales Dalek

The first in a series of cartoons I am drawing.Subverting scrpits is fun :)

The Idiot's Lantern

Here it is, the finished cover for The Idiot's Lantern!

I had trouble coming up with the background, but am fairly satisfied with this one, which is orange overlaid onto some clouds merged with tv static.

The Idiot's Lantern Stage 2: Bolts or No Bolts?

My Idiot's Lantern cover is really taking shape now, I have a placeholder background of plain orange whilst I am working with the foreground images, as it is the colour I want to use for the "ribbon" on the bottom of the DVD cover. I am undecided on whether or not to include the red bolts that are the Wire in its true form, but if I do, then I will probably move on to working on the background. If I don't, I will look for at least 1 more image I can use for the cover. I have a good feeling about this cover either way.

Lost Data Is Lost

I have had to reboot my computer copmpletey, losing all my files in the process. However I am still going on with my plan to do a dvd cover for every new series story, and here I go again with making a cover for The Idiot's Lantern.

My artwork template has changed; I decided to use a canvas the same size as the front cover of a dvd case, with the position of the R2 window and its centre marked out. I feel that this will help me to plan whenever I feel like overlapping the R2 template. I like the wire lightning bolts and the faceless Rose. the concentric circles will eventually be much less opaque, here they are at 100% opacity so I can see them clearly whilst I lay out the characters. Not sure where to go from here so I will take a break and browse for more images.

The Idiot's Lantern Work In Progress

Having trouble with this one, images of the faceless people are very hard to come by, so I might have to mock some up. Here's Muswell Hill and The Wire as a starting point.
