Doctor Who - Season Twelve on Target

I've done some more retro Target book covers. Actually, I've done quite a lot more retro Target book covers. 

As you can see from my earlier ones for Flux, I'm quite taken with the second redesign that debuted with Doctor Who and the Terror of the Autons. It features a cutdown version of the then series logo and a (usually) white border that the artwork occasionally bled out of - building on the pop art/Frank Bellamy style of the previous ones.

I did the 80s stories first but in the interests of some semblance of continuity, I'll begin with Tom Baker's first season which I only completed a month or so ago.

If you've enjoyed these, you can find them available on RedBubble on a selection of products including T shirts, mugs and more. Follow this link.

Seventy-two Cut-out Figures of Classic Doctor Who Monsters, Villains and Aliens...

This has been fun! We all remember those Doctor Who Weetabix cards from the 70s. The previous post is my attempt to replicate the style of them... with varied success. 

I do feel that the figures are more interesting to create than the props and sets. So interesting that I've now gone and done seventy-two of them. Some are famous multi-appearance monsters whilst other are more obscure characters. The ones I am most pleased with are the Earth Trooper from 'Frontier in Space', the Seer robot from 'Underworld' (how's that for obscure) and the Foamasi (which was inspired by a memory of the one at Madame Tussauds back in 1980 which was so much better than the bag of spuds that appeared in 'The Leisure Hive'... and yes, the texturing on the creature's skin IS bubble wrap!). 

Will I do some more? Possibly, but for the moment I need a rest. I think I've proved to myself I can actually create half-decent original art as opposed to ice lolly ads and Target book covers.

These cut-outs are slightly larger than I would normally post and have no watermark. You can download the images by right-clicking on them and following the relevant instructions on your PC. If you do enjoy them, let me know or maybe tell me which monsters/villains/alien you'd like to see at a later date. You can really show you appreciation by purchasing a coffee for me via my Ko-fi account. The link is here.

A Collection of Classic Dr Who Cut-outs

The past few weeks I've been trying out some new techniques in Photoshop to create original art - specifically figures of various monsters and aliens from 20th century Doctor Who. I've done loads of them - probably around forty. They all need to re-formatted for the blog which I plan to do over the weekend. In the mean time, here are some cut-out sheets based on them. 

These are larger jpegs than I would normally post and don't contain watermarks. Feel free to download them and print them out - preferably onto either cartridge paper or card depending how strong your printer is feeling today! Although they are A4 sized, they should print at A3 size without too much loss of quality. Kids will probably enjoy them but I just did them for fun and in homage to the old Weetabix cards of the 70s. 

Someone suggested I print them as postcard packs. We'll see. 

And remember if you are using scissors, get a child to help you.

When You're Not Happy About The Cybermen..

I wasn't happy with the Cybermen on the Revenge of the Cybermen piece in the previous post. To be honest, there aren't any particularly good pics of them from that story.

So I've replaced them...

More 60s Dr Who Movie Poster stuff...

Spurred on by my Edgar Wallace-style Doctor Who film posters, I've broadened the remit to include Patrick Troughton...

(The original Hartnell posters are here.)

World Enough and a Collection of Time Dilated Novels...

Given the timey-wimey nature of the recent adventure World Enough and Time, I was inspired to create a collection of covers reflecting the evolution of Doctor Who novels over the years...
