      Does anyone remember an early cgi render of a Dalek crawling out of its casing? It was around the time the 'Storm' design came out & the Dalek under the water.

      Really impressed by the video of the mostly original 1966 Dalek auctioned by Bamfords in 2016 posted by @Mike Aubert in his build diary.

      He's on Youtube as well. https://www.youtube.com/@PBProps/videos I'm sure one of our moderators would be interested in reaching out to him to post his finding here. If he has VFX 3D models, that might give us some info about the Imperial Guard Dalek appendages, one of which was replicated on one of the Character Options remote control toys.

      @RattyVulcan Due to the filament being only 1.75mm in diameter though, it wouldn't have much rigidity, so I reckon it would be difficult to maintain alignment with the parts if I went that route due to the filament having a bit more flexibility.

      Thanks M.Sharif, and the fun part is that I actually made them, well only the more recent ones (I also made two Daleks from the Peter Cushing films themselves alongside two custom ones), able to "gib": basically, if you toss an object at them, they will fall apart with separate dome, neck, and midsection parts flying around, but the actual models themselves don't actually have collision detection, it's something that the TinkerCAD automatically puts in when I'm using the physics simulator because it's just a oversimplified version of Blender made for, I don't know, eight or ten-year-olds, and the parts are just stacked together like building blocks (as you can see in the videos of them being torn apart in I believe the most hilariously violent manner by flying pumpkins and anvils like it's some slapstick comedy in the likes of Tom and Jerry or Monty Python) and some of the parts like the appendages, skirt, fenders, the hemispheres, and the midsection of some Daleks are grouped together as models otherwise they would just fall apart on the spot; hence why they're static and "frozen in place", but anyhow, the TinkerCAD Daleks are fun things to play with, if I can figure out how to export them to the forum and if Project Dalek allows TinkerCAD models.

      A typical approach for alignment 'pegs' is to use small pieces, circa 1cm long, cuts of actual filament.   RV
