Here are a couple of pictures of a Dalek I built about six years ago. (good lord it's dirty).  I'll try to clean it up and take some better pictures to add this weekend.

The head's a litte lumpy, but otherwise I like it.

Yeah, I originally had a pretty standard looking dalek eye in there but when I saw that eyeball I had to use it!  The great thing about that is the ball that the eye is made out of is styrofoam with the place for the "eyeball" carved out. This allows me to switch out the eyeballs out depending on my mood. The eye itself is just a laminated printout of an eyeball I got from googling "eyeball".



I must say though, after seeing some of the tardis props posted on this forum (especially the consoles) I feel like quite an amateur posting these pictures.

Um... you said something about photos (over 2 years ago)?
The ultimate TARDIS of ultimate destiny.  Type 1012.  Now with extra duct tape.

You might notice that "Dalekman"'s nick isn't clickable. This means one of two things... (A) Not here or (B) Not claimed ownership of his posts (the thread has been imported from the old site).

So I guess its unlikely to see new posts at this stage.

Here's something weird, the new Paradigm 2010 Daleks were originally going to have "real" eyeballs in their eyestalks but it was decided this would be too gruesome due to the amount of kids likely to be watching. There's still some remnents of this when you see the Dalek's point of  view as there's veins around the eye view.
