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
thanks @all for the comments thanks Noobkiller for the story about my case on your page @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
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 so i decided to cut the underjaw and add some filler here you see how it looks like till now http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyUFkOgS7lc now i have to find some eyes
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 the holding for the tubes will be some pices of my lego collection 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 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 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.
@itsjustacompaq it will be the mountpoint for the tubes -> seen here my conceptart and here 4 real use your imagination
skull lights up 2 hours of wiring, mounting and combining and the skull has yellow eye's i made the first functional check see it here http://www.youtube.com/v/MrKoKHbwIrA
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 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 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 a little video --> final pic soooooooooooooon
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
DAAAAMN IT’S COOL!!! Great work dude! I've been following this from the beginning, and you didn't disappoint me
Nice job, glad to see its finished! Is it fragile at all? All that filler would be pretty brittle I would imagine.
