Cunning Plan: Introducing Captain Skaro

Sep 09, 2013 09:54

Yours truly faking painting. 

Note the beverage of the gods.

Captain Skaro Found hurtling through time and space encased in a block of frozen ice, Captain Skaro is the last known recipient of the Super-Dalek serum. Captain Skaro's true identity is a closely guarded secret and he never opens his armor. Deeply devoted to the Dalek cause, the Captain is at the forefront of the battle against vile enemies to the dalek-kind. He is always ready to fight for freedom, justice and the Dalek way!

Yes, I got the brilliant idea for this little thing last week in the sauna (cooking your brain does wonders to your thought processes). And after obtaining permission from Test Subject S, I grabbed one of her unpainted daleks and painted it in this new color scheme.

It was actually surprisingly fast to do, though I did neglect shading the smaller details. I guess I can live without that Golden Demon...

In other news, I made the first prototype for the new flight stands. It looks pretty good if I say so myself. Now I have to finish the others and order more parts.

Flight stands I still need to paint the base. I'm thinking actually a neutral gray would probably be better than the black I used for the previous bases.

On a slightly related note, I just started reading a book on the Battle of the Java Sea. I'm pretty hyped about this project. It will be interesting to collect and paint the forces involved (including pretty much the entire Dutch navy). Maybe I can even get someone to play it...
