Dalek Admiral

Another Big Finish Dalek, same volume/series as the last one, different episode. The Dalek Admiral comes from the episode Jonah, where the Doctor and Bliss are tasked with finding an ancient god under the seas of the planet Uzmal. The Dalek Admiral speaks in almost a whisper, as he sends other Daleks to their deaths in order to defeat the Doctor and the Time Lords.

 

There aren't any images of the Dalek Admiral, so I was free to come up with something completely new. I tried incorporating an admirals uniform into the design, the gold bits on the side representing epaulettes. He did have a white dome, but I changed my mind last minute and just made him all blue with a black mid-section.

 

He's also got what I think of as stabilisers on the sides of the skirt, to give him a little bit of help when he's navigating his submarine. Alternatively, another idea I had was that he was locked into a sort of Captains chair type position, so if the ship goes down, he has no choice but to go down with it. So in that case, the bits at the side are clamps to keep him anchored in.

 

He's also got a life ring around his neck. Doesn't really serve any purpose, just wanted to make him look a bit different.
