The Doctor and Companion
The figures for the Sixth Doctor and Peri have arrived. Of all his incarnations , I have a soft spot for Colin Baker as he was my Doctor when I was young, Revelation of the Daleks being one of my favourite stories. Painting the two I will go for Peri as the Photoshoot and the Doctor in his Blue suit which I think is a much more fitting and was worn by the Doctor in Realtime.
Grand Army
The last of the DWA figures I bought on eBay have arrived ( sorry to anyone else trying to buy iDaleks for the last couple of weeks!) which has given me a grand total of 70 Daleks! This should give me more than enough for an Emperor and bodyguard, command squad, a couple of drone units, a hoverbout squad. I am also planning to build a Evil of the Daleks Emperor so weould have enough for a decent Dalek vs Dalek game. The only issue is balancing the modding and the need to paint the troops!

Link: Big Finish Introduction
I am a big fan of Big Finish, creating not just good Doctor Who stories but good stories. The link is to an introduction far more detailed than I could give. A read read for those who know BF and a great primer for those who have not yet discovered the audio plays

The Silence
Looking at the other figures released by the Doctor Who Adventures magazine, the Silence are also worth aquiring. The figured are made of quite rubbery plastic and are bendable.there is enough detail on them and although they only come in one pose it works well for their character. I cut away the base and added it to a 25mm base which has made it more stable and looks better.I have 11 of them so all painted up should make a good nest and some interesting games. Tempted to convert a couple pointing and maybe one upside down sleeping. Pleased with the painting and should be able to do the others between Daleks, though I might review the skin to get a greyer look
