Things have been fairly quiet from our Mod of the Year winner Nick Falzone. Granted, that's because he's spent the winter in the beautiful city of Florence, Italy studying architecture. But that doesn't mean he's not been modding - and we have his latest build to prove it.

Beautifully executed, but the theme isn't to my taste and I reallly dislike that case. Great work and effort though.

alastor · 1st May 2008, 08:57

Ooo a Coheed case, will be taking a good read of this after my lectures.

The boy 4rm oz · 1st May 2008, 09:50

That is a very nice build. I wish I had your skills.

oldnewby · 1st May 2008, 10:26

Well I never would have guessed that this case was made by the same hands
that created Yuugou, THAT case was beautiful.

m0o0oeh · 1st May 2008, 10:29

Nicely done man! As alastor said "Oooo... a Coheed case!" Definately not what you would call "ordinary inspiration" for a case mod!

Nice cuts, and nice engraving! Very cool dude!

It's different, it's impressive, but not my cup of tea. Great job none the less!

DXR_13KE · 1st May 2008, 11:56

very nice and "simple". i like it.

MrWizard · 1st May 2008, 12:54

Awesome theme. Coheed rocks.

I feel the same way. But you still did a great job with everything, and for that you get props!

Mino · 1st May 2008, 15:50

LOL, first time that I takk a look at the article my wife told me "It's the plexy we gave to Greensabbath!" and you wrote my name :-)
Wow, I'm honored!
Good work, and an original theme for me, I never read comics :-)
See you soon with a pizza and a beer, ok?

Cheapskate · 1st May 2008, 17:41

It came out tasteful and not over-the-top. That's hard to do with a case with a zombie theme.

Jipa · 1st May 2008, 17:46

I don't like theme cases, but I do appreciate quality work when I see it. Good work with the engravings and window cuts!

Naberius · 1st May 2008, 18:28

Another awesome mod to add to the rest of the awesome mods you have done.

Big respect for greensabbath!

Looks good and perfect execution, which I expect no less from Greensabbath. That said, not sure why this was front page material however

You said it right there - looks good and perfect execution. Sometimes it's not about the "OMG jawdrop" results, it's about translating the same things that make those great into an effective, clean and well-thought out job.

I like to showcase this type of work - I think it says something when a modder can do not only the over-the-top full-on mods, but make short and sweet ones that look and exude quality...much like Wolverine and the companion cube.

That, and I think Nick has shown some great and understated tips and techniques in this mod - like replacing the plastic on the top and doors with metal that you'd not even notice at first glance, but that gives the whole case a more polished appeal.

I'm sorry, but I have to agree. I know it's a case made for a contest so it had to be done quickly, but there's just not that much modded in that case.

MrWizard · 1st May 2008, 21:20

I think it was worth front page coverage. And who the hell has the right to pick apart something just for where it got posted anyway? If you're just going to nit-pick keep your comments to yourself.

Smilodon · 1st May 2008, 22:27

Congrats!

Really nice case IMO. Well executed, and a nice, clean look.

It's not about how much it's modded, the important thing is the design and the result. You can't compare old country style and minimalistic modern design and say the first one is better because it have more details.
