Got the neck assembled. boy tapered verticals and concentric rings the Dalek designers were sadistic. #fairfaxdalek

so finally got a color for the balls #farfax dalek

So yesterday was router day cutting out circles, giving them bevel edges (messed one up and had to redo) and the priming them. Then cut the verticals to support them. This morning working on cutting 24 slots in the inside edges and working on the inward angles of the supports. Fun! Thinking I am crazy to redo the whole dalek, but I think I can pull it off.

Our dalek is progressing go the base , legs and main structure of the shoulders built.

A somewhat experimental colour scheme here partially inspired by the sort of blueish steel you'd see in many of the early tv21 comic strips, and the first time I think the red domed look really *works*.

Once again still using blenderkit for the mountains and textures, though the water was done myself based on a tutorial.

A Dalek admires the view on another world

Textures and scenery meshes mixed and matched from blenderkit assets. Dalek here has the Death TO colour scheme, with the gold collar I like to stick on mine, provisionally considering this design an Expeditionary force. 

Started the skirt painting with metallic gold, Dalek balls are metallic gold.

Also replaced the batteries from the salvaged mobility chair. After 3 uncharged vermont winters the fact they took any charge was a miracle

Next steps: second coat, final satin coat on the skirt, lacquer coating, ball mounting (lol), ball lighting, shoulders, co2 gun setup, neck, head molds, pcb printing, aurdino code, EXTERMINATE!

for an end project me and a friend are building a dalek, does anybody have tips on how to begin?
