First draft for my next London Art College assignment - a composition using three different bits of reference and a "chinese whispers" technique - modifying the reference image and morphing it into something else, so to speak.

I think I went a bit overboard with the use of reference, this is based on about four or five different photos (and arr, Doctor Who screen caps), plus a bunch of my own pencil sketches - the hands and eyes, and a life drawing, and a tree.

Bit crowded at the moment, but hey., it's only a first draft for getting my head around the image. Stay tuned!

It's a correspondence course with the London Art College [link] - I'm doing "Science Fiction & Fantasy Art", they got a heap of other courses as well.

So far I haven't completed enough exercises to submit them for feedback, so I can't really say if it's any good! At least it kicks me into working, and trying out some new things.

I'm also trying to get into the zone for those mid-20th century German fairytales I've been asked to do some sketches for ... I think I might steal that Tennant face for a Wassermann next.

The pressure is on! See how I handle that. :D
