I honestly didn’t think I’d see the day when British sci-fi was combined with the stylings of late-80’s Japanese animation, but then Paul “OtaKing” Johnson decided to do just that. Johnson is working on animated short based on the adventures of the third Doctor, played by Jon Pertwee<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As a long-time Doctor Who<\/em> fan, I’m really liking what Johnson is doing, and I’m excited to see how the final product looks. However, there is one thing that irritates the heck out of me: his original character designs. To put it nicely, they don’t fit. At all.<\/p>\n
