the 5th and 6th Doctors...





the likenesses aren't great and the casting on the 6th Doctor looks like he's had a mild stroke as his face has dropped slightly... also, oddly, the casting looks like the head was removed and reattached off centre... wish I'd noticed that before I'd started painting as I would have removed it and repositioned it...

the alternating red, cream, brown, cream stripes of the 5th Doctor's trousers were tricky and at that thickness, the red and brown are very similar, but I'm happy enough...



the 6th Doctor's clothes... well, they're as close as I can get, except the collar and pocket flaps - for some reason I just could not get something that looked right for how they actually were... so I fudged it and went with a blue/white check (and there was never any blue in the original coat due to limitations of the special effects work)... looks ok, not 100% but spent about as long on those three small bits as I did on the rest of the coat... his waistcoat and necktie changed between stories, so I made that up a bit... only downside is the brightness plays havoc with my auto focus... his face looks a bit soft in some shots...

Simply brilliant. 

How thick are your glasses?

Great looking figures and excellent paint job. Talk about a coat of many colours...you could call him Dr. Joseph Taylor. Thanks for sharing!!

Superb, I especially like Peter Davidson, you have coaptured him perfectly, the colour blending is top notch.

[Keith]

Outstanding! Really amazing work on those - particularly Davidson.

Simply fabulous! The subtlety of your brush is a thing to behold.

Great to see how the Fifth turned out having seen a 'sneak preview' last week.

From your blog (about the Sixth Doctor):

now, something I didn't notice til I was commited with the paint job was the absence of a button tie detail thingy (whatever that may be called) at the rear above the tails...

The same thing happened to me! I wish I'd realised as it would have been the work of a couple of minutes to add a tie in green stuff. This would have had the added benefit of dividing up the back panels of the coat more nicely in terms of the paint job.

The other thing that annoys me a bit about the Sixth Doctor min is that his head is so large. The sculptor seems to have a lot of variation across the range. The Eighth Doctor - on my painting pile right now - is even worse. Paul McGann has such a thin face, but the mini is a real pie-eater!

But I digress - these are just wonderful paint jobs. I just hope that appearance of Peter Davison doesn't mean we're about to be reacquainted with Adric and Tegan!

WOW
Just stunning brush work.
The pinstripes are amazing you must have very steady hands and great eyesight.

[Curryman]

This is such genius work. I am in awe. I can't freehand a single stripe to save my life and here are PINSTRIPES for goodness sake! Well done.
