I've commissioned TWO Dr Who sculpts from Neil Sims:

1. Tom Baker (painted by me)

I reviewed the sculpt up close this week and there's only some minor changes before the resin casts are made.

I'm thinking McGann or Tennant next.
 
Just as an aside, I also own this (this isn't my photo, but I bought this prototype)

I love the Matt Smith. Glad I am on board for it. My buck body is here on my desk... naked except for shoes and a watch.. but the rest of his clothes are on the way.

I really think Neil is a talented sculptor.
 
I'd love to see a better Eccleston. The walkie talkie head was good for a mass market product, but still could have been better.
 
Here's an update - this still isn't completed but just a tester. The nose still needs some tweaking and the eyes were widened on this cast, though it needs done on the sculpt itself for further casting.

Different head, this time painted by the sculpter. As you can see n this one the match is great (the photo of the actor has the head sl tilted forwards) but the eyes are too small - hence why I widened them on my cast.

Awesome, just awesome. Can't wait to get one.

Should be soon. With Neil I've found he's reluctant to let anything out he doesn't think is perfect. He'll also revise the sculpt until it's perfect and although that makes it less quick, it should make it worthwhile!!!
 
Love it! I am eagerly awaiting the day when I can tear Ewan McGregor's head off and put Matt's on. :horror
