The Engibrain robots, beating David Bowie to the distinctive red face markings by a good few years.

The Daleks in their control room. This season, Daleks are mainly going for moody shadows and strong but muted colours contrasted with slightly garish display screens. A hint of the industrial in the exposed metalwork adds a masculine feel.

Another shot of the Engibrains, this time with Kenex also in view.

This sequence is the first reveal of the Monstrons' robotic servants.

A test render of the Engibrain robot in Poser.

They're silent but deadly.

A Dalek hoverbout heads out to investigate activity in an extinct volcano.

This sequence is taken directly from one of the panels of the original strip.

Close to the end of the story, a lone Dalek sits inside the inactive volcano believing he is the last of his species.

It's like Dalek all over again. Except without the crying. And with a  volcano. And lots of robots. And two blue-skinned nasties.

The Lake of Mutations. This is one of my favourite sets from this story.

I originally intended to recreate the set from the film Doctor Who and the Daleks, but the comic strip's depiction seemed much stronger.

Chaos in the Dalek city as the Engibrains encase the buildings in a thick layer of unbreakable metal.

Mind you, it always seems to be chaos in the Dalek City,  so... business as usual.

The Emperor becomes trapped in an old waterway beneath the city that leads to the Lake of Mutations.

After this render, I did actually add some extra lighting to this scene, just so you can see what's actually happening!

The Monstrons use this device to launch their anti-visibility thrusters. That's smoke bombs to the likes of you and me.

A test shot of Kenex, one of the alien invaders, produced in Poser. His close friends call him Ken.

A final sunset over the Dalek City, before the Monstrons sweep in and destroy it totally.

The city will be redesigned from scratch for the next Chronicle to reflect the rebuilding (and the change in artist that the next story brings).

A shot of the Emperor. He will also be redesigned, along with the Daleks, for the next story.

The Emperor and his surviving Daleks are finally victorious. I'm pleased with this moody composition which for me sums up a lot of what The Dalek Chronicles are about.

Capturing the pop art style of later instalments, this image shows the Daleks under heavy attack.

You will see several familiar locations, like this hallway from Power Play. You will then see them getting blasted to kingdom come.

A final glimpse of the Monstrons and their silent Engibrain servants.
