So what are we all about? Our aim is for a creative site, showcasing original artwork and animations. We aim to "re-imagine" those classic stories, the favourites from our childhood featuring the Daleks, Cybermen, Sontarans and more. We also want to put a new spin on those less well remembered stories and monsters, such as the Krotons and the Zarbi. We are inspired by some of the fabulous artwork that appeared in the Radio Times in the Seventies, from renowned artists as Frank Hampson and Frank Bellamy. The illustrations above show some Radio Times artwork from the Seventies alongside some Kastria.net artwork from today.

We launched this site in 2003 and between then and now The Web Planet, The Krotons, The Hand of Fear and The Green Death have had the Kastria.net treatment. In addition to that we've been out and about, meeting stars from the show and making location visits to places where classic stories, such as The Daemons and The Sontaran Experiment were filmed. The site is evolving all the time and, as with the show, we are only held back by our imagination.

Please do take a look and let us know what you think. Your comments are valuable to us and we are always interested to hear your opinions on the site and suggestions for future features, artwork or animations. You can contact us via the Kastria mail address. Please be constructive and kind, there is far too much "bitchin and a fightin" elsewhere in the Doctor Who world and, after all, it's just a TV programme. It's just so happens that it's the best one in the world, ever!
