I couldn't wait to get my paws on this one I got off a certain auction site I won't say how much I paid for it (it wasn't cheap) but I had been saving for a while.
This totally different from my other dalek being and early one it has more parts and two heads here some picsP1030368.JPG P1030369.JPG P1030370.JPG P1030371.JPG P1030372.JPG P1030373.JPG P1030374.JPG

A quick insight to the differences between early and later mouldings.
The later ones were more simple in construction the first part is the skirt construction.
Most parts have to be trimmed to fit.
And the bottom PIC is the later build.P1030375.JPG P1030377.JPG P1030378.JPG P1030379.JPG P1030380.JPG

Next update and sorry it's quick I have finished the lower base.
And I have show some of the work that has gone into which involves sanding some angles into the panels and removing the dimples on the spheres.
The last PIC shows the differences between the newer mould on the right and the older one on the leftP1030383.JPG P1030385.JPG P1030387.JPG 20170410_185106.jpg 20170410_185042.jpg

Got some more work done I have started on the shoulder section which is In three parts I will be doing the middle section which needs filling on the sides.
Also I started on the dome the lights have a small mini bulb inside and I have left them clear and I have not glued them in as it will make it easyer for repainting.P1030391.JPG P1030392.JPG P1030393.JPG P1030394.JPG P1030395.JPG P1030396.JPG P1030397.JPG P1030398.JPG

Love the daleks always have ( I remember them on b/w tv and they did scare me as a child but they have evolved as do have I
I don't think my wife would let he start a collection so I'll just have to drool at the fantastic creations made on here
Love the work Peter

Kind regards

Robert

This is the last build update I have almost finished the shoulder section which is in three parts and the kit supplied fabric mesh has been substituted for wire mesh from a kitchen splatter guard.20170413_165733.jpg 20170413_164430.jpg 20170413_164423.jpg
