    the mouse looks really cool , that clear coat does a good job of making it look wet and organicey

    ok mouse done , case done , need a keyboard and i got an old dell keyboard laying around ..so playtime..


    well dusty but still usefull

    buying some more epoxy chem metall a couple of aluminium pieces and its done with the playing with the sticky stuff..
    [​IMG]

    colors .. white and some red..
    [​IMG]

    now the thought comes up , what to do with the keys or the letters on them, does anyone look at their keyboard typing? i dont ..
    so the letters will go and the colors black , cloearcoat and some nice letters with teh words "sweclockers" will be done ..

    [​IMG]

    Are you going to use the keyboard on a regular basis?
    I just think it might be unconfortable to type with those keys.
    Looks excellent anyway.

    I think you have alot of skill in making such as creative and wide ranging, orignal mod, but it just doesnt work for me, i have never like those themed mods based around a game or genre, e.g. Battlefield 2 ammo box computers and Doom oriented mutated bodies, such as this one, I just dont like the look of them... itsa niche mod and only certain people will like it but i dont, i am a fan of the metal and black finishes, PCs that would not look out of place in a living room etc...

    I can sorta agree with what u are saying here but still... If everyone would mod their case in black and metal finished, the modding scene wouldnt be very lively would it? (No orac³, no gnome WMD, no Swec Case... teh horror...)

    I for one, really like this case, but if it would be sold, i wouldnt buy it, for the simple reason, if i go out at night, come back drunk, enter my room, see this guy staring at me when i walk in, id probably have a heartattack :)

    :D

    ok it really wasnt done .. :\ ... i couldnt let the "how about a screen" thing go away..

    the screen is a 19" unbranded one ..
    [​IMG]

    taking it apart a bit
    [​IMG]

    only this part is about to get done a bit
    [​IMG]

    some chemical metal epoxy and some aluminium
    [​IMG]

    and time for some color..some red, brown and later some black ..
    [​IMG]

    clearcoat, still wet after the 6th layer of clearcoat..
    [​IMG]

    its a bit darker on the higher bit of the screen and lighter at the lower part ,, kinda nice
    [​IMG]

    now the set is complete but dunno why the screen seem to be "red/brown" cause its not its the same color as the rest .. :) but it looks great ..

    Not so fast GoTaLL. You're not done yet. That mousemat looks out of place. :D
    Apart from that the mod looks great.

    Yer I know that Orac. AmmoLan etc but i still like them and they are a great piece of kit for contests and LANS but for me, a user who likes a PC to fit into a decor of a living room or bedroom its the brushed metal and metallic finsihes, but im not a modder, I just build a PC and then leave it... so thats why i prefare the staple box...
    And I do get what you are seeing...
