Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #13 Jodie Whittaker

Not sure I'd go that far, but they're both far better than the new Nine thru Twelve figures that were just previewed.

Easily one of the best Doctor Who figures BCS has done. Amazing work. I wasn’t going to get her, but man am I glad I did. The sculpt is accurate, the paint apps are great, and the costume is spot on. If the new 4th, 6th, 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th are as good as her we’re in for some great figures coming up. BCS has really stepped up. I’m proudly going to display her and the 3rd Doctor next to my hot toys collection. Quality is that good.

Don't get me wrong, it's a great looking figure, but, I'm not seeing much Jodie there. To me she's like a prize winning cosplay.

The headsculpt looks pretty good, but what is with 1/6 scale figures always giving female bodies twig-thin necks? It just throws the whole likeness off.

I know what you mean, it's like they can't see past Barbie when designing them.

Well it took an eternity, but now that I have it in hand the figure thankfully looks absolutely fantastic. Only issue was the super shiny neck, but a quick spray of dullcoat was able to take care of that easily. And I didn't remember ordering the signature edition way back when (since I've never bothered with those before), so it was a pleasant surprise to see the plaque in there.

Of course I couldn't resist adding a little pico sized SMD to light up her sonic.

Could you please tell me what brand/type of dull coat spray you used? I would like to attempt the same but I only have brush on dullcoat but a spray seems smoother, and I would like to just buy the right one first time!

Also I love the LED in the sonic. If I had the skills I would do that to all my Doctors!

Well I used Testors dullcoat spray, but found that it did scratch off the slippery plastic pretty easily when putting the shirt back on. So the better route would be to simply pull the shirt down and mask it off before spraying.

Something like Mod Podge flat spray might adhere to the plastic better, but I haven't tried it yet.

Ah ok, thanks for the tips, I appreciate it!
