THE MASTER TENNANT

 
Reddit user Harbdunc envisioned David Tennant as the Master back in mid-January:



The Curator told the Eleventh Incarnation of the Doctor that he would one day revisit some of the old faces he once wore.  That ability was probably available to the Master as well.

If so, I could see that Time Lord deliberately choosing to look like one of the Doctor's past incarnations during one of his regenerations, just to taunt the Doctor and mess with his mind.

This could even come into play during a fanfic story about the adventures for one of the Tenth Incarnation's former companions.  Seeing the Master but thinking it was the Doctor as they knew the Time Lord would make them an easy target to be captured.

And as it would be the Master's vision of what the Tenth Incarnation looked like, if they ever filmed a story based on this premise, then David Tennant's physical appearance at the time of production would not have to match how he looked at the time of his regeneration.

Just another casting suggestion from the Toobworld Curator....

Thanks to u/Harbunc for the inspiration!

ADDENDUM:
Since writing that up, rumors were swirling that David Tennant might be coming back... as the 14th Doctor - whole new personality, quirks, speech patterns, wardrobe, and differences in physical appearance.

So this artwork could prove to be the inspiration of that new incarnation.

I'm trying my bleepest to avoid O'Bservatory speculation on that rumor, but we shall see....
