    Hey... I have almost finished my Diablo mod :D looks really great (pics below) anyway... I have one more idea i might actually want to incorporate into the case itself.. Something with the front... I am thinkin about cutting a window, bending the plexi to the curve of the case (yeah, i know that will be a pain) .. then putting an applique on the window (something like this id modify it to just be the paladin)

    anyway, i was thinkin about using the technique i saw at metkumods .. but i don't know if it'll be worth it (or make it seem like too much for the look right now)

    anyway, the pics with some descriptions:
    [​IMG]
    Just a shot with the lights on so ya kinda see what it looks like ... the drives are grey, i know, but thats cuz I havent gotten the drives i want specifially for it yet :wallbash: and yes I know.. i got a mess for a desk (and yeah, the missing fan in the upper left of case.. still waiting for an ultra slim 80mm to fit it between pannel and psu :( )

    [​IMG]
    Lights off this time... I like the glow I get with it (too bad its not night, it'd look cooler.. I think the glowpad kinda adds a nice touch to the whole thing ? maybe?

    [​IMG]
    Ah, the feature of the case :) the diablo cut out (out of metal, and frosted plexi behind it to give a solid glow) and the blizzard logo (dremeled out of 1/4inch plexi) I think it looks good.

    Anyway... should I try to add the front window with the applique, or would it take away from the "darkness" of the case?

    Any comments or suggestions would be awesome :) (even if they are "dude your case is horrible") - ill learn to deal, and make a better one next time

    thats pretty cool. im working on a game based mod too.. *more to come soon*

    ::EDIT:: How did you make your blizzard logo? I need something similar for my mod :

    ::EDIT2:: Forget the above. I actually read all of the post this time :p shame my dremel skillz suck for anything more than cutting windows.

    it wasn't that hard to dremel it... just took a lot of time... patience... just draw out the logo in like sharpie, and then use a depth guard if ya got one... helps A LOT .. move slow.. and it looks great :)

    pretty good job the pain job is a little if'y but other than that good job
    you should try to make a blizzard fan grill that would be sweet...blizzard or maby something to do with diablo 2

    also you should definately stealth thoes drives then it would be super case

    Excelent casework...
    maybe you could do a flaming DIABLO II window above the demon...
    have it backlit with orange on top and red at the bottom of the window....

    Really good job on the case. As I was a D2 addict once myself, its a great tribute to the game. A grill would be sweet.

    lol. Well I quit when they released the 1.10v patch. It ruined the game, IMHO.

    man, i didn't even make it that far.. heh... It is kinda amusing when people see my case and go 'oh! you like d2? we should play' and i kinda do the whole 'well.... maybe some other time' thing.

    I guess i'm just a bigger fan of the story and the art then I am of the game.. click of death! WOO!
