I painted this last year for Kar’Mas, a gift exchange we do in the Flash Pulp community. I painted Doc Blue as the Doctor. Mostly thanks to his brilliant cosplay as the doctor the same year I went as the Tardis (pictured below). This is a watercolor measuring 9×13. I had a lot of fun painting this, I don’t know why I waited a YEAR to post it.
Tek, The Clockwork Doctor, The XerialKiller, and I get together to discuss what fandoms and franchises we can’t get people into & what we can’t get into.

This weekend I did a bit more painting with the ArtRage app on my iPad. I like it because it has layers and there issn’t any cleanup involved, also, I can paint from anywhere. Humidity doesn’t effect my paintings and there is no drying time. Often my oil paintings take forever to dry because I use a lot of paint and I will use linseed oil as a medium too. I once let a painting dry for three weeks and the white was still tacky when I gave the painting to the owner.
This first painting was done from a photo of Christina Hendricks. I don’t think I did her justice but then again who can? I do love how the brush stroke on her hair came out.
Next I did a painting of Rory as a Steampunked gentleman. What more does a genteldragon need other than a top hat, a monocle, vest, cane, ray gun, and a curly mustache.
The thing that is great about doing a painting on your iPad is that if you like the basic outline, you’r not committed to just one painting or painting style. I then took the outline and did a watercolor painting.
This time I painted Rory in watercolors and dressed him up as Doctor 11, Fez, Bowtie, Sonic Screwdriver and all.
I had fun with this, and liked how I could make different incarnations with the same basic outline. I may just end up using ArtRage for the future children’s book that stars Rory. Originally I was going to do a series of watercolors but I think I might do better with this app. For now I’m playing an experimenting with it. Hey you never know, if I do end up using it for the book, does that mean I can take the iPad off as a deduction from my taxes? :)
If I were asked to draw The Doctor, I think I might have just drawn eleven, not for any reason other then he is the current doctor.
The whole “my doctor” thing isn’t really true in my case. I don’t have a one doctor, I love so many of them, and not just the new ones. I think that’s what’s so great about Doctor Who, he’s the same man, but changes and well for someone with ADD that’s pretty ideal.
