Rec [Art]: Gallifreyans by Coconut-CocaCola

Title: Gallifreyans
Creator: [deviantart.com profile] Coconut-CocaCola
Rating: G
Word Count/Length/Size: one image
Creator's Summary: Ouuuuuuuf! That took me some time to finish (nearly a year I began that thing). But I guess I have to blame it on laziness too .

So here is a little painting of the first doctor with his grand-daughter Susan on their home planet
Characters/Pairing: First Doctor & Susan Foreman
Warnings/Notes: Traditional Art,

Reasons for reccing: This is an absolutely lovely piece of these two characters. The scenery of Gallifrey is so vividly red and the artist does a great job of using color. The expressions of the Doctor and Susan are also really great and highlight their characterization.

Rec [Art]: Twelfth Doctor Art by JohannesVIII

More JohannesVIII recs, this time for my seasonal challenge, i.e. the Twelfth Doctor.

Titles: n/a
Creator: [tumblr.com profile] johannesviii
Rating: gen
Warnings/Notes: none

1.) Word Count/Length/Size: 2 x 3 paintings
Characters/Pairings: Twelfth Doctor, Clara Oswald
Creator's Summary: Small watercolor paintings based on screencaps from the Doctor Who episode Deep Breath (Series 8, episode 1) / Listen (Series 8, episode 4).
Reasons for reccing: These are more realistic than comic in style, brilliantly capturing everyone's likeness (with watercolours! so impressed) and once again have such a great use of colour. I love the choice of scenes - Twelve on the roof in his nightgown, his intense look after the confrontation with Half-Face Man from Deep Breath, the barn moment (okay, thinking about it, technically not Twelve in this case...), and the otherworldly atmosphere of their trip to the future in Listen.

Characters/Pairings: Twelfth Doctor, Eighth Doctor
Creator's Summary: Eight and Twelve playing music together. [...] If you are wondering, they are playing this [YT-link]
Reasons for reccing: Twelve and his guitar = instant like. But this has so much more: a duet with Eight and the visualization of their musical parts (see link above) as perceived by the artist.

Rec [Fanart/-comic]: C'Rizz, Charley, and the Eighth Doctor by JohannesVIII

Titles: n/a
Creator: [tumblr.com profile] johannesviii
Rating: gen
Warnings/Notes: none
Characters/Pairings: C'rizz, Charley Pollard, Eighth Doctor

Reasons for reccing: For the monthly companion theme. I don't actually know the corresponding Big Finish stories, but I completely adore JohannesVIII's beautiful watercolour fanart for this trio, particularly C'rizz, and wanted to rec a couple of favourites. I love the comic style and the fantastic use of colours, and all the ideas are very cute and expressive and made me smile.

1.) Word Count/Length/Size: mini-comic (3 panels)
Creator's Summary: C’rizz touching things he finds confusing (headcanon: he takes notes about human and gallifreyan customs in a notebook he found in the TARDIS).
Link: https://johannesviii.tumblr.com/post/169007898439/crizz-touching-things-he-finds-confusing

2.) Word Count/Length/Size: mini-comic (10 panels)
Creator's Summary: Recently I realised C’rizz has probably never seen snow in his life, so I started to draw a little comic about it.

3.) Word Count/Length/Size: single image

Warnings/Notes:

Reasons for reccing: This is a really epic poster art that perfectly celebrates Ten and all of the characters from his era on the show. It’s the kind of poster I’d love to have on my wall and the art style and texture is really great. Just everything about this art is *chef’s kiss*

Characters/Pairings: Twelfth Doctor

Reasons for reccing: Starting the week with one of my favourite Twelve drawings: Autumn!Twelve a.k.a. Grumpy-Punk!Twelve. :-D The autumn colours are beautiful and it's done with a wonderfully light touch, yet every detail is on point and makes me smile: Twelve's clothes (checkered trousers and scarf!), his guitar, the expression on his face and his whole body language, the swirling leaves around him. So much personality and fun energy in this.

Rec [2xArt]: Tardis & Eleventh Doctor fanart by Sunli-TCT and Agathexu

For the new monthly theme. These are both inspired by the same scene of Eleven tinkering with the Tardis, but fantastically different in style:

Creator's Summary: "All alone in space and time / There's nothing here but what here's mine / Something borrowed, something blue / Every me and every you"
Characters/Pairings: Eleventh Doctor, Tardis (Idris)
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: Wonderful mood and colours. Love the vertical format, the way Eleven looks and reaches up to her while she manifests out of the ship, her skirt still alight with the colours of the middle column. They are together in their own shared space out of time.

Rec [art]: The Doctor's Wife by Janey-Jane

Creator's Summary: (working title: 'Get in LOSER we’re going time traveling’)
Characters/Pairings: First Doctor, Tardis (Idris)

Reasons for reccing: Once upon a time there was a Timelord who thought he'd steal a Tardis ... and got stolen right back. This is a beautiful piece and I love the colours and the likeness. The "this is more than I bargained for" look on the Doctor's face is hilarious.

Reasons for reccing: Well, it's what the creator says it is: Two, Jamie and Zoe being adorable. It's a very cute, feel-good little drawing and I was delighted to find it. They look so chummy and like they're having so much fun, and Jamie is his usual tactile self and Zoe's wearing a jumpsuit, so all is as it should be.

Rec [Art]: Ryan and Essay by licieoic

Title: "It’s Okay… You’re The Doctor Now”
Creator: [tumblr.com profile] licieoic
Rating: G
Word Count/Length/Size: Two Paintings
Creator's Summary: Last month’s big project for me was something very special. The two people portraying the Tenth Doctor and the Thirteenth Doctor/Rose are Ryan Jones and Essay Hood. He always cosplayed Ten and she was always Rose… but Ryan, unfortunately, passed too soon. Shortly thereafter, Jodie Whittaker was announced as Thirteen and Essay looks SO much like her. It was like Ryan was reaching out and saying “It’s okay. YOU’RE the Doctor now.” So when I saw the comic cover (originally drawn by Giorgia Sposito and Arianna Florean), I wanted to paint it as Ryan and Essay because it was like they were reaching across the time streams to find each other. The second painting is based on a photo by Bryan Humphrey. They may be my favorite couple I’ve never met. ^_^
Characters/Pairing: Tenth Doctor, Thirteenth Doctor, Tenth Doctor/Rose Tyler, Real Persons
Warnings/Notes: N/A

Reasons for reccing: This is such a wonderfully beautiful and emotional piece of fanart. I'm not too familiar with cosplayers, but the artist does a fantastic job of portraying these two people as the characters they're cosplaying and the journey of what that means. This is just a really beautiful tribute.

Characters/Pairings: Susan Foreman, The TARDIS
Warnings/Notes: None.

Reasons for reccing: For the monthly theme of epic - this fits it in several ways! The artist has embarked an on epic project to create a poster for every televised Doctor Who story (and some of the audios for Eight and the War Doctor), and there's an epic feel to many of the pieces, too. It was hard to choose which one to rec here as there are a whole lot I love already, done in different styles, but where better to begin than at the beginning? And this might be my favourite piece so far. I love the composition, with all the negative space and the careful use of colour. It really does manage to signify the start of a truly epic adventure, and the hope that goes with the Doctor and the TARDIS.

Creator's Summary: n.a.
Characters/Pairings: Twelfth Doctor
Warnings/Notes: none
Reasons for reccing: Takes the Doctor's bird story and runs with it. I love how this manages to pack so much into one picture: the Doctor as the bird of his story, stuck in a cage, looking up at the stars and the raven, the collection of skulls at his feet, and holding mortality in his hands. Clara's maple leaf amongst the falling feathers, the two things symbolizing the beginning and the end of her story, while the Doctor is caged in by his grief for her and by his desire to change death.

Rec [Art] The Hybrid Zine by JOSERODMOTA

 Title: THE HYBRID ZINE
Creator: [deviantart.com profile] joserodmota
Rating: All Ages
Size: 945×1398px

Creator's Summary: This artwork was my contribution to the fanzine about the 12th Doctor and Clara Oswald for the benefit of One to One Children’s Fund.

My intention was to create a farewell scene between Clara and 12th in which they shared a long moment together in the last place where they were (I was dissatisfied with the farewell of the Christmas episode).

That’s why I painted a warm scene. A beautiful moment between two good companions. I hope you like it!

Characters/Pairings: Twelfth Doctor, Clara Oswald
Warnings/Notes: Recced for my "Regeneration" prompt on my bingo card.

Reasons for reccing: I really like these scene here and I agree with the creator that this would have been a better farewell scene between the Doctor and Clara as they meant so much to each other. I love the diner setting, and even though the doctor is regenerating, he's smiling while in Clara's presence. It's really a beautiful artwork too, with great character portraits, color and lighting.

Reasons for reccing: Graham gets to experience a darker side of the Doctor. Something we haven't seen much of in Thirteen's run, so it's interesting to have fanfic tackle it. This captures everyone's voices very well and I love that it's from Graham's POV, who follows the Doctor even after she sends her companions back to the Tardis under false pretenses.
