A Doctor Who Emporium and Erstwhile Boutique of Nonsense and Ramblings about Daleks, the TARDIS and Other Stuff.

Hello and welcome to 2010. All these worlds are yours, except Europa. So, the dazzling David Tennant and has left us forever and we now have the long, unbearable wait to see Matt Smith's era (or Stephen Moffat's Era, if you like). It will almost be impossible to imagine the continuation of the series without the shining beacon that Mr T has been since during his four years and six months in the role, over taking Jon Pertwee by two months to become the second-longest-running actor to play the Doctor, and in terms of success and national recognition, he was elevated to Tom Baker's level of fame. Both his role and Russell T. Davies's role in the resurrection of our beloved series cannot be over-stated, and the level of comfort and dignity that fans now have within society is largely down to these two alone. It's pretty uncool to say you don't like Doctor Who these days. So thank you Mr Davies and thank you Mr Tennant.

3D Daleks Gallery
A showcase of my latest renders featuring New Series Daleks and classic models in exciting environs and unusual encounters.
   
3D Daleks Workshop
Here's the full collection of Dalek variants I've been tinkering around with since I first started modelling Daleks in 3D in 2004. The library now contains everything from the Dalek Supreme to the AARU Film Daleks.
   
Redesigning the Console Room
Following the news that the Matt Smith TARDIS interior would be new, and inspired by the Peter Cushing one, I wondered how I would make the TARDIS console room look if I was asked to design it.
   
New Series Dalek Model
In 2006 I refined my rough 2004 New Series Dalek model in order to produce a series of renders for the series 2 DVD box set.
   
Starships and Spacestations
I created about a dozen renders of various ships for the Doctor Who book called starships and spacestations. Here's a selection of renders of those ships.
   
3D Models of Other Monsters
Ice Warriors, Daleks and even the Malevalus from the TV Weekly Comics. I've started modelling things which aren't Daleks!
   
Reconstructed Missing Episodes
Using 3D computer models I am remaking short scenes from missing Dalek stories and create new CGI effects to stories where the original visuals were lacking.
   
3D Artwork for DVD Covers
Images of the 3D work contributed to the series 2 DVD releases of Doctor Who.
   
Doctor Who Artwork
A selection of images covering in acrylic paintings, ink drawings from when I was thirteen, some odd bits of photoshopping and a McGann title sequence which The Mill clearly borrowed ideas from me for their new series titles!
   
Early 3D Modelling
Dating back to 1997 when I started playing around in 3D, here are a selection of models from - shock horror - TV Shows other than Doctor Who. I know, it's bizarre isn't it.

Eight months in the making - although mostly on 'the back burner' this was an idea I had after rendering a Dalek Supreme in a corridor. What if 'Planet of the Daleks' had been made in the 21st century for the big screen? Here is my movie trailer for this epic story featuring New Series Daleks and a space ship which isn't made from reflective cardboard.

As glimpsed in the trailer, what do you think about a Dalek redesign?
Fantastic! The Daleks need a revamp.
Terrible! How can they change a 47-year-old icon?
Worried. I`ll reserve judgement.
Good. As long as the shape isn`t ruined.
