Steampunk Dalek

About this spectacular wearable steampunk Dalek, BB reader Mark Dumont writes:

Electronics are contained in box at back waist containing arduino uno, 2 nine volt batteries, and small amp. Speakers are in ends of tube around neck and mic is on an earpiece. Arduino board powers eye stalk and dome lights as well as handles dalek voice modulation. I found the arduino sketch (source and circuit diagrams) can be found here, kudos to Andy Grove for the sketch. Originally created for my wife (the only dalek I will ever love) for the Time Traveler's Ball held at the Redmoor in Cincinnati 11/17/12

love the cosplay and the wearable but why taint it with that nasty “s” word steampunk?

I do believe a shark has been jumped with this “costume”.

You forgot the word “sexy”. Sexy Steampunk Dalek.

See no steam coming out of her, though.
