One Hundred Days - Day One Hundred!

Bloody hell. 100 days already? Where did the time go?
I had the idea for this one last week. Unfortunately it hasn't come out anything like I wanted it to. Its still quite cool though.
My favorite bit is the robot from day 91 finally flying. He looks so happy.


Quite a few times over the last 100 days, I've happily finished a picture, uploaded it onto twitpic and posted it on twitter, only to then notice something thats not quite right or could be slightly improved. However, I've resisted the urge to fix it, and stuck to the idea that the twitpic uploaded picture is the final one. Until today. When I realised I'd left out The Thing That Lives in My Room.
So enjoy this Director's (Blogger's?) Cut of my final #100days pic!


I have also decided I'm going to continue doing a daily drawing. I've definately improved over the last few months, and so has my confidence. Plus it's so much fun!
I probably will miss a few days, like when I'm too busy, way too tired, or just can't think of anything, but I will endevour to do more days than I miss.

One Hundred Days - Day Ninety Eight

The classic spacemen cross many strange and dangerous landscapes on their mission.


I kinda wish I'd included Space Moose in this one too....

One Hundred Days - Day Ninety Seven

Whoops. Looks like someone forgot they were set to 'vibrate'.

One Hundred Days - Day Ninety Six

And here we reach the eleventh, and final, (so far) Doctor. Comparing him to William Hartnell from day 4, I have definately improved. still can't seem to get feet right though...


So far Matt Smith looks like he's going to be a great Doctor. Only a few weeks to go til we find out...

One Hundred Days - Day Ninety Five

Another Doctor. This time Doctor number ten. He seems to be giving a really sexy look there and I'm not sure how it happened as the figure I used for reference definately wasn't.

One Hundred Days - Day Ninety Four

This guy is still here! He's not too bad if you leave him alone, but he can be annoying at times. I haven't even had a chance to read those Green Lantern books myself yet.

One Hundred Days - Day Ninety Two

Space Moose and the classic spacemen meet at last. It was destiny.

One Hundred Days - Day Ninety One

This was another one that pretty much just appeared in my head, fully formed, and I just had to sketch him out. Love this guy. He's so cute, but will he ever get off the ground?

One Hundred Days - Day Ninety

I really don't know what my brain was doing today, but never mind. Here is SPACE MOOSE! Such a simple idea, yet it reeks of pure genius.

One Hundred Days - Day Eighty Nine

At last we're back to the Doctors! Quite pleased with how this one came out, but his head seems to be too small for his body...

One Hundred Days - Day Eighty Seven

Today the classic spacemen were gathering supplies for their mission. I love this picture. and apparently someone at 100days HQ does too!


The classic spacemen seem to be really popular. They always get the highest view count the fastest on twitpic.

One Hundred Days - Day Eighty Four

More Doctor Who-ness, but not a Doctor. Instead its one of my favourite old-time villains, an Ice Warrior. Please, Mr Moffat. Isn't it about time we saw these guys again?

One Hundred Days - Day Eighty Two

Random Robot time. I'm pretty pleased with this one too, it came out more or less exactly how I envisioned it.


As a bonus, heres the sequek I originally did for day 83, but decided was crap, scrapped, and started again with a brand new idea instead.

One Hundred Days - Day Seventy Nine

Another Doctor, and another without a figure to use for reference. However I am MUCH happier about how this one came out than Sylvester McCoy. Maybe even better than Colin Baker too.
Paul McGann is who I officially name as the first Doctor I saw. I clearly remember watching it one weekend afternoon in 1996, and loving every minute of it. Although it wasn't until it came back in 2005 that I became properly obsessed...
I know the 1996 TV movie gets a lot of stick, and now that I've seen every episode ever I can see why, but it still holds a place in my heart, and despite the slightly dodgy storyline, Paul is still a brilliant Doctor and one of my favourites. His Big Finish audio plays are great too...heres hoping we'll get to see him on screen again....one day....

One Hundred Days - Day Seventy Six

Another Doctor at last! Sylvester McCoy as the Seventh Doctor. Technically the first Doctor I ever saw, as he regenerates at the start of the 1996 TV Movie.
This was also the first Doctor to draw where I didn't have an action figure to use for reference. I don't know why, but I much prefer having a figure to use as reference instead of photographs. I'm not sure why, I guess because I can position it how I want it, and view it from any angle, instead of having to find photographs that are as close to what I want as possible and end up having to compromise between them and my vision.



Two weeks after drawing this, Character Options announced they were releasing a Seventh Doctor figure, exclusive to Forbidden Planet, which will come out mid March.

One Hundred Days - Day Seventy Four

I wasn't having a good day today. I was tired, I was headachey, I was coming down with yet another cold, so the classic spacemen made another friend.

One Hundred Days - Day Seventy Three

Here's where Doctor Week kinda fell down. I think I'd been to the pub with Mark and Mary-Anne so I didn't really have time to draw a Doctor, so instead i brought out the classic spacemen for a close encounter that was slightly friendlier than their last.

One Hundred Days - Day Seventy Two

Another Doctor, this time the Sixth. I think this is the best one yet...which is a little annoying as Colin Baker is probably my least favourite Doctor....

One Hundred Days - Day Seventy One

Continuing [kinda] Doctor Week, here is Peter Davison as the Fifth Doctor.

One Hundred Days - Day Seventy

Today begins (what was meant to be) Doctor week! I'd put off doing Tom for so long, I decided to get all the Doctors out the way as soon as possible. Here he is at last, the Fourth Doctor.
