The next exciting episode of how to build a Dalek.

Did a little more buggy yesterday, but nothing worth taking a picture of. Discovered Ill need some wheel spacers/adaptors machined which may take some time.

So here is the next exciting episode of how to build a Dalek.

Paint! this is the first of three coats, needed to cover the foam. This coat is a little light, I started with a tin of olive green from B&Q and mixed in loads of different poster paints until I was happy.

 

 And here he is together again. I'm working out the drive mechanism at this stage, which is a cut down electric wheelchair with the control box extended to give you a long cable remote.

 

 

 The shoulders still look a little rough but they will be covered by the equipment these daleks carry.
