Revenge of the Cybermen

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.

Genesis of the Daleks

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

The Sontaran Experiment

Bleak. Nasty, brutish and short. And bleak.

Robot

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!
