Vworp! Vworrrp!

  • Listening to: Another Green World-- Brian Eno
  • Reading: Non Fiction-- Chuck Palahniuk
  • Watching: Doctor Who and BSG season 4
Two new drawings--

In honour of the show's return to our TV screens, and the fact that my mate Zal has given me a load of his old Doctor Who videos for free, I've done another rendition of my favourite time travelling vagrant. This time I've opted for an earlier incarnation of the Time Lord, the one played by Jon Pertwee between 1970 and 1974. Pertwee is one of my favourite 'Classic Doctors' for many reasons. When I started watching Who as a child, it was the Jon Pertwee story 'Death to the Daleks' that became my first sight of a TARDIS not piloted by Sylvester McCoy and thus my first step into the wider world of Doctor Who. What it's most about for me is Pertwee's brilliant portrayal of the Doctor-- arrogant, acid and authoritarian but at the same time compassionate, rebellious and non-conformist. And the clothes-- evil hypnotist meets pimp daddy! He's great to draw too.

The next pic is a character from my aforementioned friend Zal's own comic. I'm trying to persuade him to get a DA account so I can post a link for you all to see as it's amazing. The plot is basically to do with superheroes in a dystopian world. Jeva is a kind of cross between Nightcrawler, Hare Krishna and Beyonce, an elemental who can take posession of a human's body and transform it into her own image.

Enjoy! Next I think some Battlestar Galactica fan art. So say you all?

Man - why can't we bring back Doom Watch?

I guess Eleventh Hour was a good modernization.

And still - Primevil gets no lovin'!

Yeah, I'm not particularly feeling Primeval either. I've come to the conclusion that Torchwood is crap too. Nu Who is just getting better and better though!

I still say Pertwee had Grandma-hair.

I still think Rod stewart is only a wild haircut away from Pertwee.....

I'm not as big a Doctor fan as my sis is (or my dad was), but Pertwee I know is a class act. Heck, every Doctor from Troughton through Davidson is considered classic in my household.

I liked Baker and Davidson. though I am really more of a recent fan having been introduced to the who world with the 9th doctor.

Well being the biggest Dinosaur nut on the planet, I am quite digging Primevil - even though I am forced to Bittorrent it. :(

the thing i would love to see is the doctor turning out to be the final cylon model. that would be interesting
:iconkallitechnis:
Meh, alot of people seem to like Battlestar Galactica, but I'm not keen on it at all.
First of all, Humanity seems to have very little humanity left, doing absolutely anything to make sure it survives.
Secondly, the replica humans the cylons created cannot be classed as robots, as somehow they managed to make near identical organic human replicas using different organic substances. Why they would want to clone humans beats me, (the only reason I can see being for the purposes of going undetected humans, but seeing as they would be suspicious of even the humans they know, this is unlikely) as by being able to recreate a human without even cloning it means they would be close to the ability to create any creature they could want.
Why also they would not only find interest in religion, but believe it was their duty from God to exterminate all of humankind is really illogical for a species which is supposed to be primarily logical.
