Update on my Dalek Wallpaper quest: Victory!

This is the image I was looking for:

http://www.frankhampson.co.uk/drwho.php

The version I had before was just the top half (Pertwee and Manning were cut off), but this is definitely it. I distinctly remember that building with the odd gold veins running through it. Nice big scan, too. Yay!

I love you, internet.

I don't know why I suddenly thought of this today, but now it's bugging me.

Many years (and several computers) ago, I had this awesome desktop wallpaper of the Daleks. It was an illustration, painted in that lurid, trashy 1950s-1960s style, ala "Mars Attacks". There was a large Dalek in the foreground, and then other smaller ones in the background, all scooting around on elevated walkways in some futuristic city. I think it might have been the box illustration for some old toy or model kit.

Anyway, it was really cool, and now that I remember it, I'd love to find it again. Haven't had any luck with Google. Anyone know the image I'm talking about, or maybe know a good place to search for such things?
