Just a quick start i have decided to change the color it will now be black and using humrol gloss black no 21 and a brush and this is the result on the dome[ATTACH]114042.IPB[/ATTACH]

Nice. If you wanted a Mk I do not put the strips on the mesh on the shoulders. It is a bit confusing as when they first appeared with William Harnell they did not have the shoulder strips, but in the adventure Genisis of the Daleks, with Tom Baker, they had the shoulder strips!
