"Alderin Beta! Boring, planet of the chip shops. But there is a 400-foot tree growing out of a clifftop on the north side of a mountain in the middle of the sea. And if you take the lift to the top and look up, at exactly 12 minutes past midnight on the 21st of September 2360, you can see more stars in one sky than at any other moment in the history of the universe. It’s like daylight, only magic!" "Come on, let’s go and see the stars."
"But I haven’t changed!"
"And you never will, River. Never, ever."
-- The Doctor and River from Night and the Doctor, First/Last Night
In anticipation of the Season 7 premiere that hasn't come out in America yet. EDIT: Saw the new episode. LOVED IT. Moffat, you've done it again.
This kind of goes with my other Doctor/River painting, [link]
So this started out with me finding these brushes [link] and I was like, "Hey! They work for GIMP!" and I really wanted to try them. I thought they would make a perfect Doctor Who sky, so I started racking my brain to figure out what to draw. My friend and I started a Doctor Who marathon the week before the new episode came out, and I watched the Night and the Doctor shorts. When I got to that quote, I was like, "I wanna draw that!" So I did. XD
I will forever love these two together, even long after River's gone.
These two are perfect. I don't care who you are, this picture is all about the FEEELSSS It shouldn't make me sad, but it does. I really love what you've done with the lighting. I'm definitely believing the like-daylight-but-magic bit. (Someday, I too shall have a tablet I can draw directly in GIMP in, and then I will be happy.)
You just.
I can't even.
your designing skills are remarkable and impressive.
