Super Freak
Alright, I'm just going to come on right out and say it: I'm a picky bastard when it comes to 1:6 stuff, and I'm harder on no one more than myself.
I started a commission earlier in the year to hire Ada make this Patrick Troughton head and ended up paying for most of it myself due to lack of contributors. I have to say I think it turned out amazing, looking just like the ref pic I asked her to base him off of here and I was extremely pleased with it.
Painting however is another story. I can paint so-so, but am no Les. My finished Pat looks very little like him in my opinion and I am pretty disappointed in my paintjob on him. The Second Doctor is one of my all-time faves, so I think I may have to send him off to be painted by a professional and hopefully they can capture the likeness better that's in the sculpt.
The ultra-detailed outfit is by Vikki (Vikkitx), doing another outstanding job. The quality and accuracy she puts into her costumes just can't be compared with. Thanks Vikki!
I wanted my Second Doctor to look straight out of INVASION with a giant pimp collar. I bought the shirt with giganto collar loose from a parted out Sideshow Scarface. I painted suspenders I bought loose as well into Troughtons "Lucky Charms" themed ones. The costume turned out terrific, (but then, that's because Vikki did almost all of it).
As nice as I think this sculpt turned out, it's exciting to think how much nicer a Chris Howes 2nd Doctor could look, (and I know another talented sculptor, Mr Barlow, is working on some Doctors as well!)
