Nigel Heath Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 G-usa, you are now a Dr Who aficionado and clearly know that AA is just in his summer drab. The metallic hair just wards off space interference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in Lincs Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 This six month service. Did you check the fluids & filters? There are people here who need to know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Heath Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 Yes all checked and I even polished up his bright trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenko Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Have you thought about him getting a summer job at the local beauty parlour removing unwanted skin ?? All he would have to keep saying is......... exfoliate, exfoliate......... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Looks like his tin-foil hat exploded.....Has he been browsing on Above Top Secret again? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Heath Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 Yes well, he likes to wear his aluminium hat to ward of dangerous space interference ( ) but it might have got shredded by a recent cosmic ray shower. I am sure that you appreciate that I am living with a bit of a Dalek nutter but he is quite lovable and does a good job of cooking (actually read vaporising) chicken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celticwardog Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant. New here and nosing what's about and found this "Magnum Opus" Beautiful job, flawless finish - and I don't normally like things left like that but Daleks of that era would look very odd weathered lol. It's a funny design yet so iconic - an intergalactic, xenophobic, Nazi like race of plumbers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Heath Posted February 7, 2015 Author Share Posted February 7, 2015 Thanks, its nice to hear you found and enjoyed this. I think it has been described as one of the more eccentric build threads on BM. Cheers, Nigel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhouse Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Not quite, Nigel. I think that it was you who was described as one of the more eccentric builders on Britmodeller... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celticwardog Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) This was the best dalek I had seen, then I saw this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Model-Dalek/181654342165?_trksid=p2047675.c100010.m2109&_trkparms=aid%3D555012%26algo%3DPW.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140221143405%26meid%3Db761f82ae82b4d3c934570242ce92f9c%26pid%3D100010%26rk%3D7%26rkt%3D24%26sd%3D331468200210 And yes I am being sarcastic. wtf! I think his eyestalk (which appears to be a tube from a Hoover!) needs Viagra. Edited February 8, 2015 by celticwardog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Heath Posted February 8, 2015 Author Share Posted February 8, 2015 LOLs, and I reckon the dome is a re-purposed BBQ. Probably should have left it in the garden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticwardog Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Lol yeah I think your are right. The eye stalk seems to have a bandage on it. Am I cruel? A kid would be happy with it but ii can't see any sane adult paying for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uilleann Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Nigel, I think AA has been stepping out on you Mate. He's apparently been looking for ways to make a bit of coin on the side, and has turned to subliminal relaxation therapy for humans: https://youtu.be/e59guruVL4o He's actually quite talented that little squid - face of yours. Let it never be said you don't raise them right! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicodemus Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 New to the site,and the first thing I read is this marathon effort! Phew! Very well done may I say,I am impressed by your attention to detail and I have learned a lot about modelling techniques. Sometime early on in this topic,mention was made of the numerous "Sugar Puffs" adverts in the second Dr Who movie. I recall reading that Sugar Puffs sponsored the film,and were given three(I think) Dalek props for competition prizes. To this day I can recall the crushing disappointment when I didn't win! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Heath Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 I put AA in the Sci-Fi section of the Scottish National Scale Model Show competition this weekend and was really chuffed when he garnered first place as well as the Aero Club trophy for the best vacformed model in the competition: Of course he is thrilled with this and is purring away quite happily. I don't think he knows what a vacform is; he thinks he's mainly made out of Dalekium and I haven't the heart to tell him its mostly polystyrene and builders foam. Bye, Nigel 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uilleann Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 You remind AA that you're as much a proper Dalek as you feel. BE the dalek AA!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeusa Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I showed Mattie and Michael this post and both wanted to tell you: (1) they miss you and wish you would come visit again. (2) another alternative would be me taking them to see you (very big hint). (3) they are very impressed with your win and Mattie even knew it was from Dr. Who and (4) Michael is telling his friend who is spending the night how awesome you are. Oh yeah, I think it is awesome you won and AA did not have to exterminate the competition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Heath Posted May 22, 2019 Author Share Posted May 22, 2019 I'm not sure, I don't have any plans but this build was the most fun build I have ever undertaken. I'm also not sure how AA would take to any challenge to him being the most Supreme Being in the household. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
