    Not bad so far. Good work. One thing I hate though is that color 'rust'. It doesn't even look natural.

    *Daily Update*

    Today i've 95% finished the right side of the case. My idea i make a hole in it and put the plexi behind it and than i light it up with 3 LED's in orange.

    On the right side you see now a hole ;-) with a wood frame
    [​IMG]

    Here now the finished plexiglas with the shade of the Band of Brothers as seen on many posters (i hope you recognize this)
    [​IMG]

    Than i've done some soldering work for the LED's and the switches.

    Note: the orange is not orange in real! The rust looks very natural. And you must wait a few days then the color getting darker. I made the pics only a few hours ago than i've finsihed the painting.

    Sorry for no update yesterday. A friend was visiting me and we had mod his mouse with a blue LED :eeek: incredible work, yes i know *hehe*

    But today and the weekend i must work very hard, because the case must be done this weekend. Next week i only wanted to put the hardware in it. And then there is the LAN party on 25th.

    When anybody want, i post some pictures from the LAN party and the modding contest here. And you can see what place i have make.

    I hope you can see tonight a few new pictures from the progress.

    One thing i dont like is the "Diesel tank"
