Children In Need 2013

By wearing my costume into work I raised £140.01 for Children In Need! I even played the recorder during my lunch break :)

And a couple of photoshops for fun:

The Science of Doctor Who!

Just seen an advert for this programme to be aired in a couple of weeks time, featuring Brian Cox and 12th Doctor Peter Capaldi, plus a nifty BBC2 TARDIS logo:

My Doctor Who Costume - Nearly complete!

I now have the faux fur coat, my jacket has been altered to have smaller lapels and the right number of buttons on the front and sleeves. I have also bought a spotty handkerchief to complete the look. Bear in mind that the trousers are temporary whilst I seek some inexpensive houndstooth trousers. My recorder is coming in the post this week and I should have a penlight for my sonic screwdriver soon! Here are pictures of me in costume, with and without coat.

Troughton Costume - The Recorder!

Here's a cheap alternative to buying a geniune Moeck recorder for £35.00+ on ebay etc -- buy this one for £5.99 with free postage! Im getting mine tomorrow!

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 :)
