    So it's like an ista-oxidator (don't know how to spell that)?

    BTW, Case does look nice, I wanna do some massive moddage to this when I get it, but I'm still not sure what theme I want to go for. Keep up the good work! :dremel:

    its all good and well, using this rust effect, seeing it all over now.. but please, be creative, and at least give it a different project title !

    reason being, as soon as you call it blackmesa, your mod is instantly compared to the creative beast by piloux

    hope it goes all good, and ill be checking it out as you update.. good luck :thumb:

    The rust looks good, but you had better do something different to make it stand out.
