Doctor Who ‘Essence’ Portraits

Illustrator Projects #3

You can see the full pictures in all their glory in the book “Power Over Peoples” by Daniel Headrick.

A friend approached me and asked if I would do a parody poster of the one from the hilariously bad B movie “The Killer Shrews”. This was supposed to be specifically aimed at his friend, whose software company’s name involved shrews. I said, “Sure!” and this pastel parody was born:
