An lil' tribute to the man who started the whole thing, William Hartnell.

The jacket and waistcoat is a vintage set for PhilC, one he originally modeled for the Poser 4 nude male.  The base figure?  Believe it or not, that;s the M2P4 hybrid mesh.  It's an "extra" that came with the Michael 2 purchase (when it was still available).  It's basically the Michael 2 head (with all the morphs native to the standard M2 mesh) resting upon a body shaped and rigged to wear clothes meant for "The Dork" (the less than endearing nickname Poser users christined the Poser 4 nude male).  But to make him more versatile, I loaded it with the morphs Beth Capsces designed for "Boris", an "enhanced" version of Mike 2.  Hard to believe anyone would use P4 based material with DAZ up to Genesis 2, huh?  Well, that jacket was perfect for the original Doctor and Poser's latest tools can "breathe life" into those vintage meshes.

I swapped PhilC's included trousers for the slightly "saggy" pants supplied with Poser.  The hair is MayaX's "Simple" hair which I morphed with a couple of "magnets".  His features, just random experimentation with morph dials until I got something that vaguely resembled ol' Billy.  I also played with velvet shaders for the jacket and "procedural" checker patterns for the trousers.

The console and the walls, those are the efforts of Richard Marklew, a talented Blender artist,  The models were once available for download from his personal website, BlenderWho, but eventually he closed it in favor of a blog type site.  Sadly, he has not (yet) offered the console again.  It was a bit of a challenge "optimizing" it for Poser since the initial conversion process resulted in a "tonne" of backfacing polygons.  It took a lot of manual effort correcting those "flaws" (not Richard's fault), in many instances, flipping individual polys in tight spots.

I tried to depict a classic pose of Hartnell's, gripping the lapels of his jacket while speaking with authority.

Sincerely,

Bill
