Boy, Turlough is a lot harder to draw than he looks! This is the closest I could get -mainly I just wanted to draw his eyebrows, never mind the rest of him!

Vislor Turlough, a companion of the fifth Doctor's and one of the more interesting ones in my opinion.

I guess it's because Turlough is so different from other companions, that I like him so much. At times he's an unbelievable jerk and coward who barely smiles and looks at everything with a cynical eye. Also, let's not forget that he was under orders from the Black Guardian to kill the Doctor when we first meet him (Till his conscience got the better of him that is) but that's what gives him a spark!

Plus, I laugh every time at that moment in The Five Doctors when, watching the TARDIS scanner, Susan and Turlough see that the ship is surrounded by Cybermen who are laying down explosives. Susan wonders what they can do...
"Die." replies Turlough!

Hooray, Turlough is one of my favourite companions just for being totally unique. He's like the anticompanion! I love how you've made him look really pale and shifty.

Thanks! Yep, Turlough certainly feels like one-of-a-kind!

Turlough, from one of those alien worlds where they *never* use their first name.

The shifty, cynical sides to his character was what made him a great interesting character, and how Tegan didn't hide her dislike for him.

There needs to be more of that in Doctor Who a lot more tension in the TARDIS.

Excellent work!

Well, yelling TURLOUGH!!, in a danger moment has more of a ring to it than VISLOR!!

Indeed, it would be nice to have a character like him again just in order to shake up the companion dynamic.

Such a cynic, you got his look down pretty well. Its the look in the eyes that does it all.
You can summon this guy up in one sentence.

"Rude and Ginger."
