Modding REACTOR 1.0 exterior complete- feedback please!

well it would only be natural to post this mod on bit-tech since ive seen some of the most talented modders in here... so here goes:

this is an antec performance 2 case, ATM i have modded a design in the sidepanel and front door. my objective for this is "mod it to look stock" if that makes any sence... by that i mean have a sleek, clean and elegant mod that resembles a stock case, but is far from it. here are the pics:
























please comment on this i would love feedback!!!

It looks good, although I wouldn't have chosen green necessarily. Only trouble is, its not that exciting, a bit of mesh here, a few lights, but you can buy similar in shops brand new. I like the mod though, well done.

 

is that mesh smothered in some sorta silicone/glue?

i guess it works,but i think the features are too small in relation to the case

 

sorry i must agree the window looks a little pointless as it so small and thats a big case

 

thanks for the beedback guys! with this mod i was going for the whole "sleeper" look, smooth, simple and clean. i chose the "window" (if you can call it that, its more of a light up logo) because i wanted something quite small.

another thing is the quality of the cut though - from up close the sidepanel window looks laser cut. also, the front hole was cut via dremel, and sanded for an hours or so into a PERFECT circle. im not done on this case- the outside may be complete, but the inside is far from it. my intention is to hide all the wires, work on the front bezel (not door), maybe have a mesh mobo plate, etc.

keep in mind that this is also my first mod . keep the comments coming!

 

I don't see any pics

 

3 other people saw the pics, so they work i guess... try this link:

Nice job! Very clean cuts. Keep up the good work.

 

thanks!

 

Personally I like its simplicity even if perhaps a little too simple. Also like the use of a colour other than blue

 

I like it
it's nice and simple and not too flashy

 

thanks! thats what i was aiming for

 

I like it. It is minimalist and understated. You could add the name Reactor v1.0 to the logo somewhere, and remove the Antec logos/badges altogether for a smooth look. Something interesting could be hidden behind the top bezel (is there?).

 

thanks nexxo. i was experimenting in photoshop with text, more logos, etc on the case, and i did not like the results. it will stay like this on the outside for now... one problem i have is that the plastic door hinge cracked today, but epoxy + metal to reinforce it will do a nice job i'm sure.

 

I love it, nice and clean.

 

Looks great! You seem to have that same simple taste like me. Awesome job, keep up the good work.

 

thanks.

 

Simple and Clean, GG!
