Illuminart 3 The Doctor Who Art of Andrew Skilleter

Available to order from www.andrewskilleter.com

Book 3 of The Ultimate Collection Trilogy 144pp Large Format Hardback book 21.5cm x 30.5cm, 8.5 x 12 inches

ILLUMINART 3 continues to showcase the work from a career of over fifty years in the publishing industry. This FINAL volume of a Trilogy covers more of his Doctor Who art – the Target and BBC VHS and the complete New Adventures classic covers, poster prints, calendar art and much more – but also unpublished and unseen artworks.

Also featured are sketches, preliminary drawings, in-progress images and many unpublished and unseen artworks, his ‘Hidden Dimensions’, accompanied by commentaries from himself and Commissioning fans giving an intimate insight into the process of his art, inspirations and artistic heroes.

Every picture tells a story and Andrew has quite a few to tell!
Doctors, Monsters, Companions and More!

    Just wondering if anyone on here has received their copy yet?, as I’ve had an email lately saying the order was complete, ie on the way, but not received it yet.

      I haven’t had an email at all yet. Was just asking about this on the ask a question page. I might contact Andrew and ask if there is any news. I think it was published about a week ago now.

      Hi Pete. Been in touch with Andrew. The books are being posted in batches continuing into next week. I know I had a postal issue (not Andrew’s fault) with the exterminart book where the copy turned up quite late. Check with royal mail if you have a tracking number.

      Yeah, it’s ok, mine arrived today. It’s brilliant, just like the first two volumes.

      Mine hasn’t been sent yet which is fine but a bit frustrating. Looking forward to it arriving

    The cover has changed on his website. Boba is gone, replaced by a tripod from the series of the same name

      When I saw this page bumped, I thought I was going to find out who bought the Dalek poster art this morning. (Anyone here bid?)

    Pre-ordered instantly, love Andrew Skilleter’s work. I’m looking forward to adding this to volumes 1 & 2. Not sure why Boba Fett from Star Wars is on the cover though.

      It is probably from a privately commissioned piece. Hal the archer and boba fett perhaps or something similar

      Thanks for the comments…Each of the covers has a non Who image in that position representing the extra content of my sci-fi work outside of Doctor Who… the previous two were Dan Dare and Journey Into Space.

      That explains it Andrew, I think this one stands out more than the other images. Really looking forward to the book.

      I never noticed that before, thanks for confirming that, Andrew! Can’t wait for the book’s arrival.

    Does anyone else see Boba Fett or is it just me?

    Instant order. I dropped massive hints to my other half that I wanted Exterminart for Christmas. She didn’t order it, it sold out, I’ve never seen a copy available since. Never doing that again.

      Exterminart is excellent but a very limited print run. 300 rings a bell but I could be wrong. Snap this up fishmonger!

      Totally agree Bookcollector. The art is beautiful and given room to breathe. But the quality of the each book is very very high.

      I might be Tempted to get a slip case ,even though it’s not “needed” but would look very smart.
