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... what I did notice is that the casting of the 6th Doctor doesn't have the long lapels of the actual costume, so they were added with greenstuff and are present in a vision of yellow and pink...
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...
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...and the Doctors so far...
