PROJECT CALL OF DUTY *COMPLETE* doing finishing touches.

ok, I just bondoed the rest of the vent slats on the window panel, so now i just need to sand and paint that panel and then its ready for my computer parts! after that there is just some small stuff to do ( drive stealthing, window inserting, etc.) and then i will be done

 

ok! im so close to finishing! here is a picture i took a few minutes ago with my webcam, so thats why its so poor quality. I just finished painting last night, and riveted on the handles a few minutes ago. all thats left is to put the computer parts in it and put the window in, which i cant do till thursday. i also need to prep the drive bay covers for stealthing, and wiring up the fanbus. anyway, heres the pic.

tell me what you think! (note the 2 added holes at the top)

 

well first off its still too "new" looking. try scuffing it up a bit with soot and then lock it in with clear coat and then rough that up it will look spelded.

also those shiny fan grills have to be rusted or something. anyway this case still has lots of potential.

i would also suggest some wicked military lettering on the top or bottom. remember that they didn't use yellow lettering untill the 'Nam war (or was it korean) anyway use black lettering, that way it would be more authentic all in all it still looks great
MOD ON!!

 

Lookin good. Are those handels just rivited into the top? Or into the top and a support beam too? I wouldnt just trust the top piece of metal to hold that computer.

 

dont worry, im going to rust the fan grill, but i dont know how much to, maybe just a light coat of rust. also i am going to scuff it up and then seal it all in, the only problem is that when you hit it the grey paint comes off and you can see the biege underneath. maybe if i put some rust over the biege but left the shiny aluminum visible it would look good... well, ive got some experimenting to do. more updates to come.

 

WA???

did you sand the powder coat before painting? please tell me you did.

 

sand... powder coat... the... of course i did, why wouldnt i... i need to go, i have some painting to redo, i mean, do.



maybe i can make it stay on with some sort of sealer, to stop the chipping. it doesnt fall off, it comes off when you bump it. ill just haveto be careful around it and not to kick it under the desk.

 

hmm.. dont see any CoD in the case.. but I bet it'll come

 

ya, ive got the logo printed on a piece of paper that im going to glue onto the cd drive, and im going to get an army type letter stencil and make call of duty in black letters somewhere on it.

 

Thats funny sh*t....Sucks you have to redo it...

 

oh dont worry, ill find a way to not have to redo it. even if it means redoing it!

 

Lol...post more pics dude.

 

thats true modding. keep up the nice work ´. i gonne follow this one.
mod on

 

you know, i would, but theres nothing to take pictures of with my crappy webcam. when im done ill do a whole load of pictures, dont you worry.

 

Looking good.

I found a guide for doing realistic bullet holes, with a shotgun!

 

lucky he didnt have any slugs, there wouldnt be a case panel left.

 

w00t! im done ( actually no, but close)

ok, i just put the plexi in the side panel, and i just finished putting my computer into it. here are some pics of it. ill post some really good pics soon when borrow my stepdads digital camera, so please stay tuned till then. heres these now.





not to brag, but i think it might be an inprovement on this:

 

IT IS DONE!! i have finished my project! tomarrow my stepdad is coming over with his digital camera, so then i will take many pictures! here is the breakdown of how i built it....
time- roughly 30 hours
cost-about $40 canadian
cuts, bruises, and fractures sustained during work- 23
here is a pic tooken with my webcam, but the good pics will come tomarrow, or maybe in 2 days for some of you guys on the other side of the earth.

 

for the money i guess its good and DO NOT take this in the wrong way it doesnt seem like you have done much anyway ill wait to see the other pics when they post, Ice p.s it looks good though

 

Looks good so far. add some bullet holes on front panel (might i suggest using a soldering iron , and maybe using an external liquid kid with sleeved tubes that look rusty.
