Description
this took embarrasingly long, i won't even admit exactly how long. paul mcgann is incredibly difficult to draw - his face is all soft curves, not a single sharp angle or anything. i'm still not quite satisfied with it, but i don't think it's going to get much better.Related content

So, so lovely and romantic. Just like him. Perfect.

Yessss. Though admittedly I've never seen McGann's Doctor, I've been a huge fan of his ever since seeing Withnail & I. Personally, I think you captured his likeness incredibly well.

Thank you! He is incredibly difficult to draw, I think I've never spent such a long time on a simple portrait. Except for the other McGann portrait, that is.
Don't worry, the Doctor Who movie is really quite bad, although McGann does make a great Doctor. I prefer Withnail & I as well. And some of his other stuff. I seem to be the only person who genuinely enjoyed Lesbian Vampire Killers, for example

I think it's charming that Richard E. Grant also played the doctor briefly. I imagine him stumbling from the TARDIS into some mud and exclaiming, "It feels like a Sycorax shat in my head".
Lesbian Vampire Killers? Oh, dear. How did THAT one slip by me? Netflix queue, here I come.

McGann forever - the 8th Doctor DESERVES another televisual or big screen come back A.S.A.P! Criminal that it hasn't happened yet. If he isn't there for the 50th anniversary, I don't wanna know about it to be honest.

This is beautiful! Have submitted it to my Big Finish Doctor Who group, as his audio's are fab and this is a great picture

McGann's Doctor doesn't get enough love. This is a great piece of work. Well done!

This is beautiful, the short brush strokes give it a wonderful impressionist sense of movement. I especially like the way his clothes are done. Great work!

It was worth the wait! Great piece and likeness - You don't mention the media, is it Digital or Magic Marker Pens?

thank you!
it's all done in photoshop, like most of my work - i'm rubbish with traditional media.

It's a really impressionistic piece. Well done

I really like how his face is softer than his clothes and background. Very nice! (and his hair is lovely, too).

The expression in his eyes is spot-on! The painting style looks a bit like Cezanne's. Beautiful!

Oh wow! You know I literally gasped when I saw this picture? I adore eight and wish more people would draw him- so thank you! This is a beautiful picture and I love the colors

ooh, thank you!
i love eight (and paul mcgann in general), even though the film was terrible - i wish he'd got a series.

I really wish that too. So much. But at least we have all of his audio plays right?
Man I really can't stop staring at your picture. What I love most about McGann as the Doctor is that he looks like such an edwardian romantic. His voice coupled with his appearance is very serene. And I really feel that you've captured that here in this picture. If I could, I'd get a print of this
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah, i'm listening to one right now
i'm glad you like it - if you want, i can enable the print thingie for you.

Oh don't worry about it. I don't have the money or the know how to set it all up. I'll treasure this picture from my computer seat and grin as I do it.
And which audio is that?
π: 0 β©: 1
Grand Theft Cosmos

Really? I actually don't know much in the way of the audios. Sadly I've only heard Blood of the Daleks for McGann. When I'm done with classic Who I really do mean to hop on and get down to business with these audios.
