    Yeah, Daleks are his passion.  I've teased him as being the Davros of the 3D world.

    This one, in particular...

    ...employs "switching geometry" allowing one to depict over THIRTY THOUSAND variations, over 60,000 when you realize one model has a "lpunger" and a second has an articulated "claw".

    Sincerely,

    I may, if me health holds up, make some more Daleks and some much needed updates to my older versions.  I realized some of the "canon" versions weren't all that accurate so I've been trying to remedy that.  Anyhow, if and when they're released into the wild, you'll find 'em at the usual place.  :)

     

    @Redfern ... Davros?!  Hehehe.

    Hmm, rarely see activity in this thread!

    Aww, you sell yourself short.  You are the definitive Dalek maker within the Poser/DAZ community.  Even your "custom" concepts retain that distinctive silhouette far better than the infamous New Paradigm design from the Matt Smith years.

    Still, I look forward to whatever you eventually share.

    Sincerely,

    Bill

    Only just seen this tread. Thought I’d put this up.

    This is a model I made in sketchup based on the famous 60s book cover. I exported it and rendered in daz Studio. Not sure I got the shape quite right probably a bit too tapered but for a first Dalek attempt I think it captures the spirit of it.

    Though very different from the actual TV Daleks I sort of like the look of it from a nostalgic point of view.

    They're toast.  They're completely toast.  Nice.

    On the other hand, there's a reason the Alternate Dimension's Daleks conquered their universe and ours had not.  And that reason prefers trainers, fezzes, and twenty-foot scarves.  And sometimes celery or fish-sticks and custard.
