    As a childhood dream of mine, all your hard work has now been translated into 'A lucky man!'. Congrats on a beautiful Dalek (if those two words are ever used together to describe one) Hope your creation brings many many hours of joy, for both yourself and those witness to it.

    Damn, that's awesome, I went to MCM on the friday, I am guessing you did one of the weekend days, Would have been awesome to see Dalek Sigma in person, great video and what a cracker of a photo of you and sylvester, he's such a legend isnt he, i met him and paul on friday

    Thanks for sharing so much info in a manageably short video. I have dreamed of owning a full sized Dalek for many years, but your build is one of the first times that I ever really understood what would be involved. I like your choice of Dalek generation, as it is truly iconic. Cheers from Canada.

    Beyond impressive! It's perfection. I'd love to make a Dalek but the closest I've got is heating up a Gino Ginelli pizza that looked a bit like a Kaled mutant with black olives on it. Early days. But seriously... any advice for a complete novice? I was shite at woodwork at school. Thanks mate, I'm totally in awe. Can't wait to see what you do next. Subbed! 👏👏

    • @whopropsmodels9710
      @whopropsmodels9710  Рік тому +4

      Haha! Honestly my advice would be to spend a bit of time before hand researching other builds and seeing what works for you, and then just taking your time, anyone can build a Dalek well if they spend the time to do the job well. And thanks, there should be much more stuff coming soon!

    Nice work! I too plan on doing a 60s prop at some point, albeit based on Dalek 1 rather than 7. I really adore the wooden gunboxes compared to the fiberglass ones, and it gives me an opportunity to have a go at the dilating Iris

      Maybe squeeze a camera into the eyestalk so you know where it's looking? One thing I've noticed in most of these is they rarely make eye contact with who they're talking to.

    Best wishes from a maker of movie armour and a man who was once a guest musician at BBC Wood Norton.
    Filming ran over that day, so I was invited to stay the night. It was whilst walking to the accomodation block that I realized... 'This is where they filmed Robot!'.
    So at 3am, when everyone was sleeping... I sneaked out and went looking around the open delapidated sheds for the Brain of Morbius, Dalek parts or model light-houses.
    I wouldn't have stolen anything... But I would have hated myself if I hadn't had a look!

      @@Helliconia54 Well the Mk1 props were the four originals used in "The Daleks".
      For the filming of "The Dalek Invasion of Earth" two new props were constructed, these are the MK2's. The original four props also got the dishes on their backs and the larger bases so they looked the same as the new props.
      Then there was one new Dalek constructed for "The Chase", this is the MK3, it had some notable differences to the other 6 existing TV props. Again, the other Mk1 and MK2 props had the upgrades made to them such as the slats added to the shoulders so all the props looked the same.
      If you're interested in the details I would highly recommend Dalek 6388 as they've done a load of research into this!
