Just found out that Lady Penelope has a canonical ‘un-named’ younger brother. Petition for him to be called Alexander Gerald Creighton-Ward (after our own Gerry Anderson) and for him to be a delicate, skinny blond pretty boy so that his sister can b the one that goes out and kicks all the ass with IR. Also to consider: Penny relating the Tracy boys to her own little brother and how adorable that is.
Got asked to draw more Alexander Creighton-Ward! I imagine this is some kind of fancy, expensive sibling photo shoot, in which in which big sister is about to plonk a big lipsticky kiss on one of long-suffering Alex's pointy cheekbones.

Alexander is older than Alan but younger than Gordon. This means there are quite a few years between him and Penelope and she enjoys lording this over him (and getting pouty scowls when she goes in for a ruffle of the hair). Alexander enjoys croquet, designer brands, and business studies. Naturally, as a CW, Alex is quite handsome. He thinks that his older socialite sister is a bit of a delinquent, but then he’s never been the adventurous one: Penelope always spent a lot of time tree climbing and having wild parties and going riding at the family stables. Alexander spent a lot of time turning his nose up at the smell of the family stables. He worries about the whatever-it-is she's up to with Parker, Aunt Sylvia, and the Tracy Brother's (aware it’s probably something dangerous with that crowd). He’ll be the first to tell her off over it... but also the first to close his eyes and hope, hope, hope that she’s safe.
He was a bit of a scrappy kid (especially when introduced to the Tracy Tinies, good grief) but he was always on the small and skinny, kind of frail side. As he grew older Alexander grew quieter and more serious and kicked around a lot less holoballs. Penelope worried about teenage Alex a lot: he's spent a lot of time getting pale in the dark and secluded Creighton-Ward library and she used to play a lot of pranks on him to try and provoke that old, scrappy smile. She used to ruin a lot of priceless old books...
Recently, Alexander has begun a course in economics at Oxford (and gotten out the house, Penelope is so proud). He’s growing into a bit of a posh frat boy, and can out drink his flat penthouse-mates. Alex plans to eventually take over the management of the Creighton-Ward Estate from their Father (or their Father has planned it for him: Penny is never sure if it was really what he wanted).
Can Alexander's middle name be gideon or gabriel or something? To match penny's? It sounds fancy. Your alex art is amazing btw
We were gonna go with ‘Alexander Gerald’, bc Gerry Anderson’s full name is: Gerald Alexander Anderson. Do you think that’s fancy enough to match our Penelope Beatrice Creighton Ward? I like Gideon and Gabriel though, and I did consider using Hubert, like his Father. Thoughts?
