My revised Doctor Who limited edition print was finally delivered today. It only took three printings with one lost by FedEx, but the print including Jodie Whittaker‘s 13th Doctor is here. All pending orders were shipped today. If you are an owner of the previous version of this print (the 2016 one, featuring Peter Capaldi and John Hurt) and are unhappy that this new one has Ms. Whittaker added, you can REGENERATE your 2016 print for $10 plus shipping! All the details are here. READ MORE

Incidentally I posted this in honor of this past weekend’s release of “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker”, which I actually got to see and enjoyed quite a lot.

I almost never use this blog to complain about a commercial business or service… there’s too much of that on the interwebs as it is.

I’m under the gun with work today so no time for a sketch. Here’s an old one from 2006 of TV show “Heroes” star Hayden Panettiere. I added the grays in with the pencils for inclusion in The Mad Art of Caricature. It’s hard to believe that show was almost 15 years ago now. READ MORE
