The series is based on the comic trying to be totally accurate to the comic but doing things differently either because it works better in animation or my own style of working or just doing something different

Q. Why are you animating it?

A. Why not, it started out as me asking for a couple of models to play around with and then i realized it would be fun to try and animate it

Q. Why do these Daleks sound differently and why do they have names?

A. These Daleks aren't the same ones from the show Doctor Who, i look at it as though they are alternate reality ones that have had a slightly different birth than the originals hence the way they look, act and the fact they have names
