DOCTOR WHO DVD FILES MAGAZINE - CUTAWAYS & CROSS SECTIONS

As a result of working as a Concept Artist on Doctor Who for several years, I was given the opportunity to produce a series of illustrations for the DoctorWho DVD Files Magazine. Published by GE Fabbri, then later by Eaglemoss, each issue came with a DVD of a particular Doctor Who TV adventure, with the contents of the magazine relating to that story. Here’s a selection of those images. Click on each image for further information.
