The new Cybermen could have looked much more chilling in David Tennant’s first season of Doctor Who, judging from new released concept art by artist Peter McKinstry. He’s shared the early concepts behind space stations, Supreme Daleks, and Paradox Machines.
McKinstry has worked on every season of Torchwood, and every season of Doctor Who except the first. His concept art is mostly beautiful, except for a few chillingly terrifying bits. Britain’s children might have needed a lot of therapy if some of these concepts had made it to the screen. Here are some of our favorite images — there’s tons more at his newly launched site.
