Today has kicked off with a rather pleaset start, not only did I manage to catch an episode of Pingu, which is always a bonus, but I also managed to nail a decent enough sketch of Colin Baker, something I've been attempting to achieve for quite a while however of all the characters in the show, his profile seems the most elusive to my limited artistic talents. However I am happy with what I achieved and maybe it's a good point to start working on the comic strip I've been planning now for a few months. Well the story has been brewing for years but after being allowed out of the fitting room at work and on to a more recovery based role I have been albe to idly daydream up a few decent plots for the good Doctor and my take on the Who universe.



The real aim of this, however, is to get back in to Deviantart, something I haven't done since about 2005 and I do miss it. It was amazing to get chatting to artists all over the world and such a kick to have people working on fan art for my cartoon characters. It wasn't so much the quality of the fan art that I was concerned about, it was just awesome to think of kids around the world getting out their coloured pencils and doodling my superheroes and getting a buzz out of it. I almost felt like Stan Lee for a moment, only less iconic and with even less hair.
