Bill Potts Appreciation Society

I miss Bill.

Hey, who turned out the lights?

Vashta Nerada. Terrifying. Poor Dave. We should know by now, there's always something scary in the library.

Number Twelve Girl.

I love Peter Capaldi. I called him as a Doctor before he was a Doctor. I wasn't sure how they would do it with his Torchwood story line (silly me, I shouldn't have worried). I don't think they've given him the best story lines, he such a damn fine actor that I want him to have the best, but it still makes me happy to see him bounding across the stage.

Idris the Tardis.

Two hearts, one rose.

Although Rose is not my ALL time favorite companion (that would be Donna Noble, I think...), she is a very important companion. And a really likable one. AND...AND...although Whovians tend to associate her mostly with Ten, she really was Nine's bestie first. And everyone knows that I loves me some Nine.

Does any of this make any sense to those people who don’t Who? Pretty sure it doesn’t. Ah, well.

Blink. I dare you.

I have to admit that “Blink” is NOT my favorite episode of Doctor Who. I know everyone loves it and don’t get me wrong, it’s good. But it’s not my favorite. My favorite is actually “Midnight”, but that big bad is awful hard to draw. Maybe some other day.

That said, who doesn’t love poor Sally Sparrow? She’s pretty awesome.

God Save the Queen.

Actually, I am pretty sure this queen doesn't need saving. Liz X, the badass queen of the future.

Happy Little Cyberman.

At some point I am going to have to draw a Dalek. People ask. They want a Weeping Angel, too. I don't like Daleks. And I have very mixed feelings about Weeping Angels. I have plans for Dave in his suit, post Vashta Nerada, I have plans for a Night Terror doll, I have plans for so many other bad guys, but I am totally doing it to put off the Daleks. I’ll get there, I am sure. It has to happen, but until it does, please enjoy a happy little Cyberman. It looks like he’s been to the fair and had a grand time. Well, in between the deleting, I mean.

Shhh...

I don’t think I ever posted the finished Silence print...and this is not that. Turns out, it’s hidden away somewhere, and this is the almost finished version. Which I am posting so that you will be delighted and surprised when you see the final product...well, if you do. I mean, yeah, this is pretty close...it’s almost the same, but you should totally come see the actual print next time you are at San Diego Comic Con, or some other place I might be, hanging out, selling things.

Because I am a dork, I always feel the need to tell people why I drew this. See, the Silence doesn’t really have a mouth, and how sad must it be to have mint chocolate chip ice cream but no way to eat it? Pretty sad, I’m guessing...pretty sad.

Still pretty tired.

I feel like there are probably things I should be telling you about Comic-Con, but I can’t remember any of them. It was long. It was fun. It was exhausting.

I talked to a handsome man who I think was named Ricardo, and it wasn’t until he had purchased a print and we had a discussion about it that I realized that he was surrounded by cameras, both video and non, and that he was “someone.” But I don't know who. He was very nice. Knew his comic book history, spoke with an accent, mentioned his girlfriend and when a young woman asked him to pose for a picture as he walked away from me, I heard him ask her if she was “a Latina” and when she confirmed that she was, he spoke to her a little in Spanish, told her that her costume was beautiful and that she was beautiful and then strode away, calling over his shoulder, “Be sure to watch me on....” and then I couldn’t hear him anymore. And I wish I knew who he was, but have you ever tried to good “handsome Latino actor named Ricardo” because while it's a very pleasurable way to spend your time, it doesn’t help.

Ok, so, there was a little bit of new stuff this year, and I am just gonna show it to you because...well, that’s what I do. Ok? Ok.

New Batman charm...

New TARDIS button...

Proof of early man’s cupcake hunts...

And my preferred house of worship...

.

That kind of sums it up, no? 

This one goes to eleven...but first it goes to ten.

Are You My Mummy?

New for SDCC 2012...if you are a Whovian, than it's a question that makes your skin crawl. If you are not...well...sorry. Just trust us, it’s totally creepy.

The Saddest Little Cyberman.

Awww...apparently his emotional inhibitor isn’t working properly.

Have I mentioned the Comic-Con thing? Table M-06 in small press? The very pink one? Yeah, I’ll be there. Stop by, say hi. We’ll have prints, cards and jewelry and...stuff. I don’t know. I am very tired. I am sure there will be lots of stuff...pretty sure.

Good-bye, Sarah Jane.

I was going to post a Doctor Who nerdy girl today, but it didn’t seem quite right. Whovians everywhere are sad today.

The Doctor will see you now...

In honor of the Gallifrey One Con this weekend, here is the first Doctor Who girl, who is proudly representing for my long time fave, number five.

I will not be attending the con because...well, I am lazy and it's cold and rainy and I just want to sit on the couch and read a book this weekend. But if you are going, send my regards to Peter Davison, the fifth doctor (and All Creatures Great and Small’s Tristian!) who I have adored for lo, these many years. 

Miss Five here is wearing the good Doctor’s hat and a tattoo reminiscent of detail on his coat. Of course, she would never leave the galaxy without her celery...her pants are another story.

Flying sharks and library cards.

For the moment, all I have to show are a few library card designs I did a while back. I still don’t know if they used any of my designs, but I think these two are rather cute.

And in the meanwhile, there are so many things in progress. I sometimes wish that I could draw all day long...but then I wonder...when would I ever make cupcakes?

Here’s a little sneak peek at some sketches of the stuff I am working on at the moment...

...can you guess the theme? (Hey, no peeking at the tags!) Hopefully, these will be complete well before comic-con. Hopefully. 

Adorable Little Ood.

He’s still a bit of a work in progress, but I love me some Ood. So...darn...sweet.

Number 9 Girl/Bad Wolf.

Do you Who? I do. I'm a big fan of Doctor Who, although, not as big as fan as my BFF. And I hear that she's gonna have a Doctor Who viewing party with and old pal and a new pal. So, in honor of Whovians everywhere, I thought I'd post a Nerdy Girl and her...TARDIS. (Yeah, there are a lot of rude jokes to be made about this...).

Please, if you will, notice the tattoo on her back and have a nice day.

(For the record, I was a Number 5 girl...until Number 9 came along. *sigh* He's dreamy.)
