To die a sweet death...

Here's my poster of THE CRIMSON HORROR, from Series 7! I was inspired by friends to make this so hope you all like this one! :D

#DoctorWho #MattSmith #JennaColeman #posterdesign #doctorwhofanart @posterspy.com

This is my poster for Doctor Who - Series 7, Episode 11: The Crimson Horror.

It is half coloured in crimson red and greyscale in some places. It features the Eleventh Doctor, as a red monster, pointing at us, the viewer and behind him, is Ada Gillyflower in dark shadow. Behind her is a red circle and inside the circle is Mrs Gillyflower, our dear late Dame Diana Rigg. On the left is Clara's Oswald's face and on the bottom, there's a landscape and it's a river and there's a body in it, coloured in red. Next to the river is the Eleventh Doctor with his back to us, the viewer in front of the Sweetville gate.

On the top right corner, there's a list of some of the cast in this story and on the bottom centre, it says "To die a sweet death - The Crimson Horror (in bright red) - a Doctor Who original".
