Title: Summary of the Third Doctor's Era 100%
Creator: [tumblr.com profile] johannvesviii
Rating: PG
Word Count/Length/Size: N/A (short 3 panel comic style art)
Creator's Summary: Summary of the Third Doctor’s Era, 100% based on this post made by timewalkxr. (Reccer's note: original text post no longer at the link.)
Characters/Pairings: Third Doctor, Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart
Warnings/Notes: None, other than the Brig wanting shoot things as usual.

Reasons for reccing: For the year 1972, when this era was in full swing. This is a delightfully funny comic strip summary of the Third Doctor's era, excellently drawn here - the Doctor tells the Brig not to shoot the thing, and what does the Brig do? I love the suitably army-coloured background wash and the energy Johannes VIII has given to Three's frantic attempts, in contrast to the Brigadier's stance, and it makes me laugh every time I see it (100%).

For the monthly theme and the "Dancing" square on my Bingo card.

Title: One and DDR
Creator: [deviantart.com profile] johannesviii / [tumblr.com profile] johannesviii
Rating: gen
Word Count/Length/Size: four comic panels
Creator's Summary: One trying to play DDR when no one is watching (or so he thinks). A sequel to this little comic with Susan.
Characters/Pairings: First Doctor
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: A funny little scene! I love how clearly it gets One's expressions across, plus his three companions secretly lurking in the background, but my favourite bit is probably his dancing style, clasped lapels and all. :D

Also, there's a much longer multi-era sequel, with all the Doctors and their companions participating in a DDR tournament!

Word Count/Length/Size: 10 drawings
Creator's Summary: Some of my drawings featuring Eight, Charley and C’rizz in the TARDIS.
Characters/Pairings: Eighth Doctor, Charley Pollard, C'rizz, Tardis
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: Colourful, cosy, inventive, atmospheric, transparent... These gorgeous drawings of Eight, Charley, and C'rizz in the Tardis have it all. You always wanted to see the library on board? Here you can! Did you know there's also a huge greenhouse, with a swing and a beautiful view of the stars? Yep. You also get Eight in star-covered pyjamas, Charley in her private room, C'rizz connecting with a couple of plants - and much more! You can spend a long time looking at these and it's well worth it. Definitely one of my favourite sets of DW art ever.

Two series ten related art recs for the monthly "journey" theme. (The second one also has Heather, who is one of my characters for the seasonal challenge.)

1. Title: See You at the Cloud Nine Observatory
Creator: [deviantart.com profile] johannesviii / [tumblr.com profile] johannesviii
Rating: gen
Word Count/Length/Size: one picture
Creator's Summary: Bill, Twelve and Nardole taking a group selfie at the Venus Cloud Nine Observatory, as imagined by Nasa for their “Visions of the Future” posters.
Characters/Pairings: Twelfth Doctor, Bill Potts, Nardole
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: I'm always happy to find art for these three together and I love that this was inspired by NASA's wonderful Visions of the Future posters, the Venus one in this case. Imagined travel destinations of the future - of course Bill would want to go there!

2. Title: Space Age Lovesong

Rating: gen
Word Count/Length/Size: four panels
Creator's Summary: n/a
Characters/Pairings: Bill Potts/Heather
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: A lovely little set of comic panels. Inspired by a song lyric, it throws a spotlight on the journey of their relationship so far and ends on them leaving the TARDIS together, the first step into their unknown future travels. Really love the contrasting brown/blue colour scheme here, plus the symmetry and the stars and Heather's eye in the first one.

For the monthly Thirteenth Doctor / Space theme.

Title: Untitled
Creator: [tumblr.com profile] johannesviii
Rating: gen
Creator's Summary: I like to think the Doctor and her fam build giant pillow forts in the TARDIS console room sometimes, because these giant crystals look like the perfect structures for that
Characters/Pairings: TARDIS, Thirteenth Doctor, Graham O'Brien, Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: I love everything about this - the composition and the contrast of cold and warm colours, the lighting, the idea of a cosy pillow fort in the TARDIS, and the whole Fam sprawled out reading while the Doctor is busy expanding the fort.

Characters/Pairings: Missy, Dhawan!Master
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: Beautiful colours and execution, love their faces. A funny little missing scene about the hazards of changing your body while keeping your old clothes.

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.

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

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
Creator's Summary: I wanted to draw Eight, Charley and C’rizz wearing t-shirts and I think I’ve accidentally created the most ridiculously dorky portrait of this team ever.

Creator's Summary: The Fifth Doctor and Nyssa, petting a Parasaurolophus on the head.
Characters/Pairings: Fifth Doctor, Nyssa
Warnings/Notes: none

Reasons for reccing: Came across this a couple of days ago and bookmarked it - perfect timing for the other half of the monthly theme. Beautiful little scene where Five and Nyssa meet a dinosaur! The watercolour art and the colours are just gorgeous.
