Take this piece for example.
I love the picture. Oh, i love the loneliness she is conveying, cradling her body with her upper arms, eyes pointed downward, and with her village in the not too far off distance. I get the sense that she wants to be by herself and think. The emotion, the feeling, the mood is there.
What about the art? I couldn't draw it. I probably could color it, but not the same way you would. I like the blue's of the village. As villages go, it makes the village seem peaceful. She has a lot of hair. Its bunched together, so it would make it heavier. The picture suggests that the wind is blowing her hair off to the side, but is there wind? Her earrings are stationary. What else is there in the picture to tell me the wind is blowing?
Do you like the way she is drawn? I love the way she is drawn. But is her nose finished? That is what I mean by me knit picking. It does no real good to sit there and say this or that, its how the picture makes you feel. It is about what makes the picture appealing or unappealing to the viewer. I wish I could have this painting (Is it a painting?). I would hang it over my lamp so i could see it when I go to brighten up a room.
Maybe my thoughts are unhelpful to you, but it makes sense to me. I hope you find my thoughts helpful.

Hey, I was looking at some of your art, Its pretty cool! I noticed you really like the 8th Doctor Paul McGann. He wouldve been my doctor if the show had been more popular back then in the 90s. And if they actually made it into a series. That was a good start for a show, why did they stop with just the TV movie? Lame. So anyway, since I saw how you mod some of your other dolls, i was wondering what you thought of a project that would involve modding one of your Brothers in to a ...Sister! Check out this link I found, I found it hillarious, and i think the idea is super cool!

If you want honesty then I'd say they practically have the same face, except for a handful of noses, like animae characters. If that's the best she can do or that's the look she wants then fine.

I did Distaff Doctors too, several people have. I did outfits from the eras the originals were dressed in, my Distaff 8 in Oneida Colony/Reform Style dress with leggings. I think this was the one I puzzled the most on with waistcoat/no waistcoat and the pagoda sleeves on the coat.

Really? I'm not seeing the same face repeated at all for the 11FemDocs; the only one who's bone structure was a bit off from recognisable really would be 11. The Patrick Troughton FemDoc especially is instantly recognisable there as are the others

Y'know, Ive never heard of distaff doctors. I googled it, and found your page! Congratulations! You are officially the first person to show up on google with the word distaff doctor! Well, if you search distaff doctor who anyway, lol. I've actually never heard of it, but I really like your pictures. I like your 8th Distaff. Its actually pretty unique. Even though "several people have. ", I haven't seen one yet. But I am still pretty new here, so I humble myself. So what do you think about actually modding her into a doll?

Maybe not using the word Distaff but I've seen female versions of the Doctors here and there. Being I go to TVTropes.org a lot I picked up on Distaff for being the female version of something. The clothing designs came from thinking what would the Doctors themselves wear if they could only wear a skirt.

A 1/6 scale lady 8 could be done, I even have some other Distaff Paul sketches for some of his other roles, it would just depend on a few things. There are some McGannish sculpts out there and the sculptor who did my 4 and 10 has made an 8 but they're all for male bodies. For a girl I'd use a rooted Obitsu for brushable hair.

My McGann brothers, the 5th one is the Doctor/Joe's twin. The most Paul looking one is kind of hard to find, all but Mark have been repainted, he just had his eyes redone.
