It seems my Exterminate pack is reasonably popular, so I guess there are quite a few of you out there who like Daleks.
I'm currently working on a new batch but these are all Non Canon versions. They are the same basic layout as the Classic/NSD models (I really don't like the 2010 version) but with a few differences here and there. If anyone is interested, I'll make them available when they're finished.
So, what's the verdict?

there cannot be enough Daleks!
I'd like a SWD if your taking requests?

yes they are needed and appreciated

No prob. I'll have them out in a week, maybe less.
@ Magnus - I'm not currently taking requests but I believe Mechmaster has his version of the SWD at his site and also his take on the Dark Dimensions SWD, named Dalek Storm.
When I get back to making Canon models, I'll make a better (more accurate) movie Dalek and the NSD red Supreme. I suppose I could have a go at the SWD then, if you are still looking for one.

Yes please
Im with you about the 2010 Dalek,I tried really hard to like it, but I just cant.

the good news is, the 2010's are not to be the default Daleks.
those will be the RTD Golds... the 2010's are to be the Officer and Commanders....

I just hope they do the decent thing and use some of Mechmaster's designs. If you're not familiar with his stuff, take a look at the linked site. His work is amazing. An awesomely talented and really nice guy.

Sam,
The link to Mechmaster led me to his download page:
http://www.mechmaster.co.uk/cg-lair/downloads/index.html
I feel like you must already be aware that all those models are posted, but it seems like you're talking about making freebies that are already there and more.
?
Of course I don't know squat about Dalek's so the variations you plan are probably different?

Hi BB. The thing about Dalek builders is, everyone who makes them likes to have a go at building their own versions, even if that means duplicating something along the way. It's all part of being a Dalek enthusiast. We all have our own approach so there are inevitable variations, even if it's just the way materials are assigned or the poly count.
Mechmaster's designs are different from the canon versions, so there wouldn't be any overlap. Even his canon designs have a few subtle differences. In any case, I'd still build them for the hell of it. I also collect other people's models simply because they are Daleks. Can't ever have too many, as Magnus said. :)
For the record, Billy-home has built many of the same models as me and also has them available for download. In fact, I have used Billy's NSD in a couple of my pics.
Anyhow, the next lot I post will be non canon models so there won't be any duplication of effort. The SWD versions on Mechmaster's page aren't canon so there's definitely room for a canon version.

Cool. They are fun models to set up shaders. I like playing with them.

Ok, I'll tacke the SWD in my next batch of Daleks. Probably include the Imperial and Second Movie versions, too. Maybe even the Planet Supreme and the Necros versions while I'm at it.
After that, more non canon stuff.
