    uuh coming to think that you should have some professional airbrusher to do thoes sides and make only little surface change and easy acsent peaces but done what done no offence. But a BIG + for that great handwork and hand painting :thumb:

    Excellent work, but to me it looks kind of fragile. Could it break easily?

    thanks @all for the comments ;)
    thanks Noobkiller for the story about my case on your page :clap:

    @mattthegamer463
    it's not as fragile as an acryl or perspex mod and even an aluminum mod can get dents
    in my opinion the filler i use is (if dried) very hard and robust :dremel:

    something special

    i decided to add a typ of alien styled head (skull) on top of the case in the hollow

    i bought one a long time ago

    but it's not as perfect as i want
    [​IMG]

    so i decided to cut the underjaw and add some filler :naughty:
    here you see how it looks like till now

    smal update

    i'm back

    sorry guys i was 2 weeks in a it-boot-camp ;) (mircosoft certification)

    i already did 2 things, i shaped the top and i painted one layer of the base color
    for the inside of my case

    i shaped the cave with polyurethane foam, to get a basic form
    i put some cable on the foam to make it crazy ;)
    now i used a old pantyhose -> pulled it over the foam and put some polyester resin molding material over it

    [​IMG]

    the holding for the tubes will be some pices of my lego collection :)
    [​IMG]

    i decided to use 2 color for the inside of my case, black and a uv blue
    i put the black on the back, the front (behind the door) and on the right side behind the
    mainboard mounting

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    the uv blue i would use at the inside, the opacity not as desired and unfortunately the color was empty before i cover the
    entire interior once, damn ... so i have to order more, much more and do it again ;)
    [​IMG]

    thats all, till now

    i like the splashed on look, its very organic. what are you going to do with the lego piece? that was a very good idea using pantyhose with the fiberglass resin. i may have to use that with my future projects. :thumb:

    ut 3 top - paintjob --> case 99% done

    hi there
    damn that suxx, i had my sd broken and 30 worklog pic's missing

    last weekend i got at last a new sd card, furthermore the hardware for the ut3 mod has arrived

    i try to resume what happend on the missing pics :(

    [​IMG]
    first i use the lego ufo to make a little mountain in the front of the top
    the i put some filler on the surface of the top
    so i could fix the tubes between the cave and the lego ufo


    now the painting starts, again i used the water color to ground the surface
    i used 3 main color on top, the theme color black mixed with magenta and some blue on the legoufo
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    now the accentuate starts with some white watercolor and for some special effects with an white edding
    now the clear varnish painted and the top is nearly done

    i painted the tubes with my email color in black and silver (it's empty, have 2 buy new one this week)
    -> thats why it's not finished 100%

    i put something together and installed the hardware
    i use a core2duo e6420 OC @3,2 Ghz with 2 GB RAM on a new asus p5k deluxe
    --> it's stable but i'm still testing ;)

    ut3 final pics

    hi there it's done

    the ut3 casemod has finshed
    and here are the final pics

    in 640x320 or 1280x1024

    the inside design changed a little bit, because the uv blau wouldn't stick, so i decided to make it black inside

    Nice job, glad to see its finished! Is it fragile at all? All that filler would be pretty brittle I would imagine.
