The Aztecs 2/2

The first image here (from Episode 4) demonstrates one of the difficulties with some of this early material - the highlights are so blown-out there's very little picture information for one side of Hartnell's face. I've done my best with it!

The last in this little series of colourised frames:

The Aztecs 1/2

I haven't done so many from this story as they're so fiddly to do!

This week's colourised test frames from:

The Sensorites 1/3

I've always quite liked this story, though apart from the spaceship it's probably been the hardest to create colour schemes for!

Ah I did wonder if that prop might have appeared elsewhere (tbh I didn't do an exhaustive search)

Anyway here's how it looks in those colours - though it does seem rather darker in Seeds so it may have been repainted, who knows!

Tomb of the Cybermen 2/3

Throughout work on War Games I'd sometimes colourise frames from other stories.
Mostly for fun, but with half an eye on a possible future projects - but since there's nothing immediately forthcoming I thought I'd share!

First up: Tomb of the Cybermen 1/3
