regndoftWas going to study and watch more Blake's 7 today. Ended up listening to audio play and falling asleep for three hours. Oops?
But now, let's talk a bit about fanart.
50 Years of Whovians is a fan project that's been running for all of 2013 so far, basically aiming to illustrate every single televised Doctor Who story since 1963. A variety of artists are participating, (mostly) amateurs and (some) professionals, with a variety of styles and interpretations in different mediums.
(If you're thinking about participating, most Classic Who stories have been claimed already - but the end of the McCoy era, the movie and the new series will be open for claiming on March 30th.)
I wish this was a clever attempt at advertising a fun and creative project for other Whovians, but actually I'm mostly mentioning this because I'm doing and illustration that's due for March 10th, and I finished the sketch today. So if you want to give me constructive criticism/ego boosts before I ruin it with lineart, that would be great.
I don't have a working scanner, so for the purpose of this entry I've taken pictures with my camera - obviously this won't be the case with the finished product, but for now it'll do.
- I was VERY late to the game with this project, and honestly surprised The Green Death was still up for grabs. Not that I'm complaining...
- I've had this composition in mind from the beginning, and am pretty happy with it; the only thing I worry a bit about is whether the flower power makes the image too cluttered. I added it because only the screen and the crystal felt too bare, and I maintain this is better - but still, not entirely confident. The background will also be very bleak, basically monochrome, so I wanted a foreground that stood out more.
- Jo has the sweetest face, but it's so hard to draw. ;-;
Also, for fun, this is the concept sketch:
I AM AN ARTIST.
And while we're on the subject of fanart, I have two fully coloured Doctor/Master pieces that I should really post... when I've gathered enough courage to do so (self-conscious, me? Why would you say that...).
