Description
Illustrated in Deleter #3 Black Drawing Ink with Crow Quill Pen on Canson Smooth Bristol Board.Based on the famous (or infamous depending on how you look at it) 1993 Doctor Who Children in Need charity special Dimension in Time which featured all five of the living actors who played the Doctor to celebrate the program's 30th Anniversary.
Doctor Who had been canceled in 1989, so good or bad this was the closest anyone was going to get to a new Doctor Who episode. This would also mark the last televised appearance of Jon Pertwee as the Third Doctor.
So, I wanted to treat it like it was an actual television adventure in this illustration. I made a couple changes to the look of the Doctors to make them appear as they did when they were portraying the Doctor. Peter Davison in particular I made his costume appear as it did during his time as the Fifth Doctor. Particularly the cricketing sweater and the roll up Panama hat. Because the hat and the sweater he wore in the special were not even close to the ones he wore as the Doctor. The other four Doctor's attire were fairly spot on, I just opted to make them appear younger.
Since Sylvester McCoy was still the current Doctor at that time, I kept him looking pretty much the way he looked in the Children in Need special with the long hair he was sporting in the episode.
