Doomsday

   I wanted to call this post by the title of the first Dr Who episode where I actually watched the Daleks but as the episode has the uninspired name of "Dalek", I picked another one instead.

   These figures are from Black Tree and were ordered when I started getting excited about Xenos Rampant - they then took nearly 3 months to arrive by which point I'd moved on*. As they were ordered before I really knew how big a force I would need I bought more than I now actually need.

*and despite promises that Black Tree have fixed their dispatch times, I'm about 3 months into waiting on another order

   I was going to paint these in more classic colours - as I think the figures design is based on the classic Daleks - but ultimately as a new Who fan - 9 onwards - it made much more sense to go for their newer brass colour.

Thanks for reading

The doctor's calling

      With the new series of Doctor Who starting next weekend I thought it was high time I did a post on my Dr Who figures. This post is a mix of models that I painted earlier this year and the past weekend with my new found free time. The figures are a from two different figure ranges, Crooked Dice and Heresy, although I can't really remember which is which, although the Tardis is from Fenris.
      From left to right they are; The War Doctor, 9th Doctor, 10th Doctor and finally the 11th Doctor.

9th Doctor

10th Doctor

11th Doctor

    I'm a little disappointed with the pictures, the flash on my camera really emphasises the worst of my painting, but they are figures I am generally quite pleased with. I have a few assistants waiting for their turn under the paint brush and I have noticed that Crooked Dice now sell the 8th Doctor and the new 12th. . .
