We’d wanted to join in with the celebrations for Dr Who’s 50th Anniversary, and people we knew via NORCON were putting on a big event in the Forum for it.
We’d also promote Paintopia & collect for charity.
As I still had all the props and it was so popular, a Weeping Angel was agreed on, but I did want to do something different too.
Ginger kindly offered to be my Weeping Angel this time, and we quickly painted her up and had her on a podium freaking out the crowd.
Her proudest moment was making grown-ups swear with fright when she lunged as they turned away!
We were collecting for Nelson’s Journey charity again too – my Finley loves being a chugger!
Then James Dyble turned up to be a quick David Tenant paint – this was all no-budget last-minute so we hadn’t had time to source the correct trousers, etc.
I did a very simple brown pin-striped suit paint on his front, with a ‘The Rift’ sign and Dr Who logo on his back (yes, sorry, I forgot what the rift crack actually looked like as I’d lost my printout!).
Someone showing off a Tardis let us use that and Michelle got some amazing photos. Apologies to the few untagged ones – someone following
me on my now-deleted Face book page tagged me in them and I don’t have their name any more!
THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
