Hey Everyone! I have really enjoyed the Far Cry series and with Primal being released mid Feb I thought id put together a special build for it. In this build ill be utilizing quite few different materials that I haven't worked with before to achieve certain textures and results. I'm on a very tight deadline for this build and want it to be all done by the 9th of Feb. Here is a look at some of the gear ill be using for the build: To see my other builds come like me on Facebook Also check out my previous builds www.ozmodz.com Happy Modding!
Because I'm on a tight deadline with this build I will only be taking the most important pictures Since my last post I stripped the case down to its very bare skeleton. I then took off the back panel so I could create my new one to accommodate a new motherboard position and in turn PSU and GPU positions. Back panel is now back on. I also had to make a now mount for the Motherboard in its new position. ( this will be installed later on. I have also been working on a Sabertooth Skull to match the Far Cry Skull as close as possible. I have been using a air dry clay and texture powders to achieve this. The Knife is also made by hand from clay. I still plan on adding more textures and paint to some areas. Over the next few days ill be working on the case external mods.

Over the last few days I have worked on some of the case art. I'm not much of a painter but wanted to try by hand using a variety of paints and weathering powder to get some great detail and effects. The side Panel The Top Panel: The time lapse video: Next up ill be doing the last bit of artwork on the front Panel and starting some of the features on the inside 12 days to go!!!
So today was a very productive day! I Removed the armor from the Asus Sabertooth Motherboard and gave it a touch of Primal Inside the case it will be darker so I have used lighter colors to compensate for this. I also finished the artwork on the back and front panels. I have attempted to make a plaster boulder with a internal sign and light but ill have to wait and see how it sets over night. 7 Days until this build is due to be completed and Ubisoft is jumping on board and leading up to the release ill be giving away Far Cry Primal T Shirts as well as a few electronic copies of the game so head on over to my Facebook page where ill post more details of the giveaway this week. https://www.facebook.com/Oz-Modz-784354365026358/
So Version 1 of my boulder was a failure but I went and got some different materials yesterday which I'm confident will work! I Have installed the PSU and also made an extra bracket for the Motherboard as I wasn't happy with its structural integrity. In the mean time I have got a few Hyper X Savage SSD's which I vinyl wrapped and and then painted with some minor vinyl finishing. 5 days left on this build so stay tuned!
Today I reinstalled the modified armor on to the Asus Z170 Sabertooth Mother Board. I also installed the CPU Block and RAM. Tonight Ill be installing the Motherboard and ill start some of my cable management and also if i get time ill work on the custom loop.
Sorry for the lack of posts, being on such a tight deadline with so much work to do I had to get stuck right into it. In other news the build is now finished!!! I had a huge amount of fun on this project and really tried to get as much detail as possible into the build. It was always going to be a challenge to mix technology with 'Primal' but I'm very happy with the result! Are you keen to play Far Cry Primal? Thanks to Ubisoft I'll be giving away a few copies of Far Cry Primal and also some epic Far Cry Primal T-Shirts so head over to my Facebook page say Hi and stay tuned for the giveaway! https://www.facebook.com/Oz-Modz-784354365026358/
