Description
With apologies to Michelangelo.
Something different- hopefully no one's come up with this (I think) obvious idea already.

This is truly incredible, I'm at a loss for words; I hope they can find some way to make it canon: Maybe Davros nabs a Vortex Manipulator and redecorates the Cistine Chapel...

This is brilliant! Each time I look at it I notice another little detail that I hadn't spotted before. Nice work.

So Davros created the Daleks in his own image, and Davros said unto the Daleks, "EXTERMINATE!"

Awesome art! Mind if I use it as the image for the trope "Monster Progenitor" tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php… on TV Tropes?

Why has this never been done before?
That said, brilliant work, right down to the gas mask, land mines, and giant clams.

That. Is. AMAZING! I wonder if the Daleks have this stored in their path-web?

Except in the original Adam isn't about to exterminate/imprison God.

"O-ri-gi-naaaaate"
I'm surprised I didn't see this when you first posted it, this is a pretty good piece!

if you need to avoid art thieves, then put up a copyright.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Actually, my most-stolen work did have a copyright notice right on it. I expect it took said art theives a good five or six minutes to brush over it. I often don't even bother now b/c it just mars a nice piece of artwork.

That's what I mean when I say "brushed out" it was watermarked right into the pic. Unless you're willing to use a watermark/low resolution that's so severe it ruins any enjoyment of the work at all, there isn't much stopping a thief with remedial skill and the Clone Stamp/ Healing Brush features from Photoshop.

min sized signature at a corner of the artwork?

You would think the Daleks have no real sense of religion... or art, for that matter.

I think it's a safe assumption that Daleks didn't make this. If for no other reason than it's a bitch to hold a paintbrush with a toilet plunger.

Well, they've got those claws, too. Who's to say they didn't make a paintbrush appendage?

Very Impressive - thank you, kind Sir for showing this.
It was either Davros or the Big Purple Emperor who fitted
best into the God-Like position...lol

..... 18th century Dalek art. and doctor is interfareing it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Actually, I think it's 16th Century. And of course the Doctor's interfering, always do what you best, he always says.

What a contrast with the original where all the figures are very rigid and don't flow organically. Of course, that's totally what you were shooting for! Great job! One of the best DW art concepts I've seen
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Exactly- ya can't give much "flow" to a Dalek (unless maybe if you're Lee Sullivan- somehow that guy can draw Daleks w/ more personality than any other artist). I thought about giving Davros a little more flexibility a la Molloy or Bleach's versions so that I could better emulate God's pose from the original, but ultimately I decided it'd be funnier if it stayed true to the completely stiff and paralyzed Wisher version.

Ah, but see to me that proves you "get" the classic DW design and functionality of the Daleks.
