Two more knit daleks

Dalek-in-progress photos after the cut:











The red-and-black one is for firstgold. She picked those colours months ago, and we both thought, "Well, they had red-and-black daleks back in the early 70s, why not. Kooky, but fun." Then I saw some of the promo pics for the end of this current season and started to laugh. We are so good.

In that last photo, I'm making the "YES OKAY I SMILE FOR PICTURE FINE TAKE THE DAMN PICTURE" face. But I include it to give you an idea of the scale of these cute little beasties. This makes 5 I've knitted. I've promised one more to Teagan and then I think I'll take another year break before I do any more.

YAY DALEK!

ALSO - the colours of the Master Dalek are very close to those of Iron Man.

Coincidence?

Still haven't seen the episode, but did it look like serrico's Gryffindalek (http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y242/charloween/knitting/DSCN0258.jpg)?

YES!

Also, my dalek is so snuggly and awesome! Thanks again.

Hee! You're welcome - evil robots should always be cuddly. There ought to be a law. :D

I agree - there really should be a law about that!

Heh. Asimov's Fourth Law of Robotics: In the unlikely event that robots turn against their human creators, they must be cuddly as well as evil.
