eter Davison was the fifth actor to play the British science fiction hero Dr. Who. I was a great Dr. Who fan in college. This picture clearly shows the advantages of mapping the features properly before beginning. Since I didn't do it here, the head is slightly distorted and the likeness not quite right. Still, I'm rather proud of the way the clothing is handled. The sweater especially suggests a realistic knit texture. The jacket is also effectively rendered. Despite the facial problems, I count this, my first 3/4 figure piece, a qualified success. This picture was given to Franklin Bodine, my roomate in college and grad school, since he loved The Doctor as much as I. For a while, it hung in his office at the University of Illinois.
