The head is off the Character Options walkie talkie, cast and painted by the excellent LW. The sonic screwdriver from the CO Tennant figure. Sideshow body.
The sweater is dyed from a DiD German v-neck sweater, the black pants are generic black pants. The coat is the Dragon U-Boat captain coat. I shortened it, removed the snaps, moved the rivets over to the other side and painted it. It's vinyl so I thought it would paint okay, but the first attempts with spray paint didn't go well. Eventually I brush painted it with Tamiya acrylics and used a dull cote sealer on it. Not sticky anymore and doesn't come off on everything it touches like it did before.

Excellent. I hope to do the same when the funds improve.

Thanks and congrats Dave! He looks super! You did a great job on the attire. VERY nice!
And for the record, I had to make a neck and cleanup some on the walkie talkie head. It is pretty spot on though. Glad I could help you out Dave.

I actually like Dave's paint better than my own.

Very nice!
Where do you find these walkie talkies? I've seen a couple of these customs floating around and I get more jealous every time.

No need for all that. I have heads if you need one. You need a neck on it, and that walkie talkie one is kinda rough in that regard. Unless you go HT neck on it of course. Let me know if you want one.

He looks AWESOME. I too have been wanting to make a 9th Doctor. I keep looking for those Walkie Talkies and just cant find one anywhere. I might have a go at sculpting my own but the head sculpt on that walkie talkie is spot on as it is.
Brilliant work.
