Description I'm particularly proud of this one!! When designing this one, I tried to keep the idea "rolling concentration camp" in my mind. Listening to the Dalek Theme from the Doctor Who Original Television Soundtrack helped, too!!

Unlike my Soviet Cyberman, this one has more of a backstory. After the events of the Third Series Doctor Who episode "Daleks in Manhattan," the people of Hooverville took the destroyed husks of Daleks Thay and Jast, along with the human Dalek blasters, and buried them deep inside the sewers. They were forgotten about.

However, the "failed" Dalek embryos created by the Cult of Skaro were not so "failed" after all; they were able to grow into adult Daleks, and using the technology available to them, built new Dalek suits using the husks of Thay and Jast as templates. It took many years to rebuild, but they were able to make more Dalek creatures and more suits.

After this time of building their forces, the Daleks were prepared to go out and conquer Earth. Before they did so, however, World War II broke out. The Daleks realized that their mission of conquest would be made much easier if they allied themselves with the Nazis, who had a similar goal of world conquest. After helping the Nazis take over the world, they would turn on their German allies and take the conquered world from them.

I had fun putting the Nazi signage on the Dalek; all the symbols were inspired by what I've seen on Nazi uniforms and helmets. The lettering on its base says "Caution - Jet Blast," as these Daleks are able to fly (unlike my steampunk version). The rear propeller, used to push it forward through the air while airborne, has the "cross" of the Nazi Air Force on it.

Oh, and the speech balloon reads, "Exterminate those who oppose the will of Hitler." In German, of course, written in the "Dalek font" that I downloaded from 1001fonts.com.

Also, just to be clear, I DO NOT support the Nazis OR their evil ideals.

Deja vu! I'm writing a Who series with a friend, and one of his first story ideas was a Nazi Dalek story. I suppose it's not too hard to put the two together.

Wow!! And yes, it isn't too hard to put them together...after all, Terry Nation himself based the Daleks very much on the Nazis, especially the pre-Dalek Kaleds. Check out "Genesis of the Daleks" if you haven't already done so!!

I hope you show this to your friend, so s/he'll be able to better visualise their own story ideas.

Yes, I think you have been watching too much anime...

It IS the Nazi Air Force symbol. Subliminal messaging in anime, perhaps?? The Japanese WERE on the side of the Nazis, after all...

Well the Daleks were created with Nazism as a major influence I believe. Excellent drawing, and nice backstory too

Promus-Kaa In reply to Herr-Flick [2007-08-10 01:35:39 +0000 UTC]

Yes, they are rather similar, what with them trying to exterminate the Thals in the same manner that the Nazis were attempting to exterminate the Jews...

Thanks!! I'm glad you like it.

So, a month later and I finally got around to looking at this. I'm glad I did!

I love that you put so much thought into the image-- I love when artists really have a story to tell!

And you're right-- if this Dalek rolled around, no one would think twice about fearing them.

The barbed wire is a really nice touch, and all of the German lettering is great.

I could imagine it saying "exterminate" in german...

Promus-Kaa In reply to zrcalo [2007-07-03 05:47:42 +0000 UTC]

Well, it does say that in part of the sentance in the word bubble!!

"Vernichten" and "ausrotten" both serve as the German word for "exterminate," although "vernichten" is the one used in the German Doctor Who dubs.

Das ist uber toll! I think I scared the secretary at work when I saw this and burst out laughing, and yet, it seems so fitting, doesn't it, for there to be a nazi Dalek? Oh, and I love the font you used for the german

LOL Thank you very much!! I really appreciate it. I'm so glad you liked it...and yes, it DOES seem fitting!! The Nazis were very Dalek-ish...

AUSROTTEN!! VERNICHTEN!! EXTERMINATE!!

And since the Nazis were allied with the Italians, "STERMINARE!!" (Italian for "exterminate" )

Yeah, I used a crappy online translator...sorry about that.

But now that I have a native German speaker handy...how DO you say it properly??

Anglu In reply to Promus-Kaa [2007-06-06 08:59:09 +0000 UTC]

Uhh... I would say: "Rottet alle aus, die sich Hitlers Willen entgegensetzen!"
Instead of "entgegensetzen" you also can say "verweigern", I think, that sounds better.
