Colour By Numbers Dalek

Managed to get some good quality scans of my line work into photoshop. I've only started blocking out the colour to give me a base to work from as I paint over the top. I'm still unsure about the placement of the Dalek. I can't seem to place it correctly. I also intend to add a Zygon so that's going to require a lot of repositioning trying to get the elements arranged.

Day of the Doctor Poster Sketch


I thought I would celebrate the Doctor Who anniversary by making a poster for the new episode. The first image shows the A2 sketch but I wasn't sure if the Dalek in flames was working so I decided I would create a larger Dalek separately to add as a foreground element. This also hides the fact the Doctors look too short. I had some trouble with the proportions and kept reworking the legs. I eventually realised that the feet will probably be covered in the final piece so left them as they rather than waste anymore time.

I'm also considering making John Hurt's Doctor much larger but that will have to wait till tomorrow. It's unlikely I'll get this finished before the episode airs tomorrow evening but it's been fun doing some intensive drawing again.
