Description
William Hartnell is one of the more difficult Doctors for me. He has the features that should make him easy. Trying to keep him looking like he fits next to my Matt Smith portrait. That makes him harder since I instinctively want to shake up my style when drawing him. Most of the images online are from the same promotional shots so I try pulling reference from dvds. But the video quality is poor, the lighting reflects so much of his skin that it is hard to use lighting to push features, and getting a closeup that doesn't blur in the dvd pause is rough.

He comes off as Hartnell, but more towards the 3 Doctors, 5 Doctors stories. Older. I probably should of put that tuft of hair behind his shoulder as well. May come back and play with this when I get the other Doctors finished.
