Here's a selection of new annual covers using the classic Doctors. Each of the covers is based on the design for that year.
I did this as a belated follow-up to the popular thirteenth Doctor on classic annuals that I did a few years ago. The link to them is here.
Surprisingly, I haven't received any trolling from the so-called 'NotMyDoctor' faction this time.
Well, not for these anyway...

Thank you.
The 2020 annuals are about to filter their way onto the shelves of WHSmith so now seems as good a time as any to do a few more covers for annuals that could've been.
Here's a selection of spin-off annuals for some of Dr Who's companions from the 1960s - done in a period style.
Hope you like.

Here's the first four Doctor Whos on the cover of the current Whittaker-flavoured Radio Times.

I'm indebted to @pipmadeley for bringing to my attention the fact that Muller now produce a Quark yogurt.
Apparently, it's a sort of cheese/yoghurt hybrid from the continent and nothing to do with the favoured robot guards of the so-called 'Dominators' from TV's Dr. Who.
It's nice that 'City of Death' and 'Tomb of the Cybermen' have been released on vinyl for Record Store Day. However, they're not really the Dr Who records of our youth. They're actually just double album releases of the CDs from a few years ago. Unedited. Back in 1979, BBC Records and Tapes released a heavily edited (but still coherent) adaptation of 'Genesis of the Daleks' narrated by Tom Baker with a cover that featured Sex Pistols-style artwork juxtaposed with a glam rock coloured version of the diamond DW logo. (Oh, for the days of fluid branding!)
Here's a selection of period style sleeves in homage of that first LP.
I know I haven't posted them all but last year I did pieces of artwork based on every 60s Doctor Who adventure. They weren't necessarily meant for posting on here. I did them as an exercise to practice my Photoshop skills.
Here's a few more...
There's a publication out there - on the streets of Britain. A magazine apparently a souvenir of the BBCtv series Doctor Who. But it's cover suggests that it's 100% independent and unofficial - which kind of rules out the official Doctor Who magazine.
Needless to say the care taken with it's production is evidently clear on its cover which features a carefully crafted montage of all of the Doctors - including Richard Hurndall taking his rightful place as the first Doctor.
I've yet to see the actual magazine in question - other than a photo of its cover gleaned from the Instagram account of a fellow Dr Who fan who goes by the unlikely name of Russell T Davies (!).
For that reason, I've delved into my grimey subconscious and imagined its horrifying contents...
Read on if you dare, faithful viewer.
READ ON!
Finished doing these over the last weekend.
