      Dalek Two Zero

      Next batch of 100 free Dalek toys in production. 
      I've been asked to do a Christmas lights switch on, and it would be nice to have toys to hand out. 
      Last year snow and ice cancelled my appearance, I expect the same may happen again, as it's a couple of weeks away.

      Just obtained a set of 4 of the Canadian Arnoldware Beakers! Don’t think that moldset was the one used for the films but it completes my set including the logoless and Lady Arnold beakers

      Dalek Two Zero

      Busy with a few jobs - making another 100 free wooden Dalek toys, either for an Xmas lights switch on or Christmas day perhaps.
      With Two Zero's head and neck off I'm tidying wiring up using bits of slit hosepipe.
      Got two more axle stands so I can work in Two Zero's body in the trailer.
      I want to increase onboard storage, improve the screen layout, add a better front blindspot cam and fit powerbricks to the dashboard.

      Looking great!
    • Tonzatonka
      Getting the skirt paint on really brings this build to life.   I caught myself gasp a bit when I stacked the neck and dome on the painted skirt and stepped back to have a look. There is a dalek in front of me!   I still have the base and plenty of half spheres and shoulder slats to finish. Then I will be on to motors and lights.  This is probably one of the most rewarding builds I have ever done. For the most part it has gone together easily. Thank you Elembivos for all the hard work you have done drawing this model!
