Dalek6388 has more detail than anyone could ever want or indeed need about Dr Who's most deadly enemy (The Master excepted). Dalek6388 is incredibly detailed containing early sketches of the Daleks and such fascinating information as this: "First, the most obvious: The hemispheres on the skirt are aligned extremely haphazardly. It is particularly noticeable when seen from behind, the rear-left column corner panel has hemis that are higher than those on the other panels. However this high placement is actually exaggerated due to the extremely low positioning of the column around to the left and in fact, on measurement the deviation is actually worse on side panel, then on the infamous rear hemis - See image below.
It may be no coincidence that almost any shot that might show this error is lit in such a way that the rear of the Daleks are in shadow. Only when the Daleks are seen from the front are they always fully lit and as a result it is surprisingly difficult to find a screen-shot to illustrate this misalignment."
Take a look around and lose your self in sci-fi obsession.
