Steampunk Doctor Who Fan-Art by Promus-Kaa

Steampunk Dalek by Promus-Kaa on DeviantArt

Ms Lyssie Algorithim confesses to being a Doctor Who fan, and I can empathise – while it’s only the most recent Doctors that has really caught my attention (having grown up with the 8th Doctor on my television) I know there’s a lot more to it, and that fans have not so much been transfixed by the show, but inspired in spades.

Above, is the work of DeviantArtist Promus-Kaa, and is one of a series of Steampunk reimaginings of the iconic Doctor Who characters. As well as the above dalek, there’s a cyberman, the highly advanced robotic-dog K-9, and a TARDIS (time machine in the shape of a British police box). Interestingly, he also had a go at an Art-Deco dalek too. Oh, and if you’re curious, apparently the backgrounds for many of these pictures are care of GeneralVyse, who does some impressive WW1 era uniforms and illustrations. Thank you Ms Algorithim and Mr Swinehart!

    Jon Pertwee was pretty cool. Tom Baker was neat but there was so much of him that eventually you look for something else.
  • Doctor Demetrius Radcliff
    I have seen this picture before and it is (to quote The Nineth Doctor) FANTASTIC!!!! I have also seen the steam punk Tardis, K-9, and Cyberman

    Ah, but how can we forget the secondary console room of the Tardis (see the Wikipedia entry for Tardis). Very Jules Verne.

    Everyone seems to forget the 1996 TV Movie practically gave us a steampunk TARDIS console room.

    Paul McGann could well have been the steampunk Doctor.
  • I grew up with Doctor Who from Jon Pertwee onwards till Peter davidson, I think maybe he was always quite steam punk, I remember the origional police boxes, that shows my age eh? sonic screwdiver? and a liking for smoking jackets.......awesome
  • That is fantastic. Now that I've seen it I realize that Daleks are so made to be steampunked!

    I'm a Tom Baker man, myself...
  • "Whoops! I meant the seventh Doctor. You know - Candyman as an enemy and the Greatest Show in the Galaxy and Ace as a companion. *shakes head* What a mistake to make. "

    Missed your Doctor entirely. I went straight from Davidson to Eccleston. The Doctors keep getting better but there has never been a Master better then Roger Delgado.

  • Those are amazing. Thanks for the link!

    Whoops! I meant the seventh Doctor. You know - Candyman as an enemy and the Greatest Show in the Galaxy and Ace as a companion. *shakes head* What a mistake to make.
