Description

Commissioned by writtendark : Eight and Charley Pollard watching a sunset (on an alien planet - I added that last bit).

I couldn’t help but imagine what they are talking about while I was drawing this picture, so here it is.

- I thought green stars couldn’t exist, Doctor.

- Yes yes yes Charley but look, the star is actually blue! It’s the planet’s atmosphere which gives the sunset this rather unusual colour.

- Oh. I see. …Doctor?

- Yes?

- Is that carpet really necessary? We could have left it in the TARDIS.

- I’m afraid not. The soil is particularly toxic here.

- Oh, that’s perfect. Once again, you’ve brought me somewhere horrible where we could die at any moment. Thank you, Doctor.

- …

- …The sky is very beautiful, though.

Oh, this is so lovely! I adore the colours (and your shading once again), and that little conversation sounds perfect! I can totally imagine it happening (And amuse myself by imagining Eight carrying that carpet around under his arm - what a very random [yet strangely fitting] sight indeed! x))

Oh my god I hadn't thought about Eight carrying that carpet around, thank you for the very entertaining mental image

Beautiful! But you know what's also amazing? Your little conversation - you have Eight's speech patterns down so well, you can hear him saying these words. And Charley, too. Great work!

Really? I tried to mimic their speech patterns but I had no idea I had succeeded. I'm usually not very good with words. Thank you very much!

When I read it, I had their voices in my head.  Job well done in both the art and the cute story!

Mind the toxic ground though.
