The New Daleks
Managed to do some renders of Daleks too. Pretty happy with them, think this is the most accurate I can make them. Not ashamed to say I nicked the microphone balls idea off PineConeEagleMan, who suggested it for Gunnbuildings Daleks. Still, I am capable of original thought. I see your Microphone balls, and raise you... Wand ears! Naming really isn't my specialty, huh. Started by using upside down microphones, then added the wands later, just to make it a bit rounder. I should also note I've changed the eye design since I rendered this image, but I won't spoil the surprise, so I'll say no more about it. So, without further ado, on to the Daleks (L to R):
Dalek Time Controller - Always wanted to make the TC, but he's kinda sorta impossible to do in real life, cos of the rings. Digital however is a different story. only think I may need to toy with is the grills. There's supposed to be a trans purple ball in there, but you can't really see it. Maybe full transparent would work better than trans-brown...
Dalek drone - Or just 'Dalek'. This is the base design for all the others. Fairly simple, used a couple of hammers to fill in the sides and make them a bit more interesting. Also fund a really good eye piece. No idea where it's from, but it looks great.
Davros - What Dalek lineup would be complete without the creator himself. Mecabricks made him a lot easier to build, easier to make shorter too, as real versions are often way too tall, and don't get to keep the Dalek base. A weequay head works surprisingly well too, which I'm quite proud of. Naturally, I had to work a microphone into his head for the eye.
Dalek Supreme - Literally the same design as the drone, just with axes around the grill to make him standout.
Heavy weapons Dalek - Went a bit mad on this one, but Imma have to refine it a bit. No eyestalk, just an eye scanner type thing, which hasn't come out all too well. He also has a more bulked up mid section, as well as an antenna on his dome. He also has an ever so slightly wider base, though that can't really be seen. It's a bout a half stud wider, if that. Quite happy with the cannon, but that'll need some refining too.
So, those are the Daleks I've always wanted to make. I've got quite a few renders now, got a bit addicted to digital building, so Imma probably be uploading quite a bit more than I was, so look forward to that. So, as always, please lemme know what you think, and if there're any more Doctor who villains you'd like to see me try my hand at :D
