    looking good bilbo!
    But you should either download the images to youre own place, or link to them, since Bit-tech generates alot of trafic (not sure the frozencpu and half-life2 websites apriciate the extra bandwith usages) :thumb:

    More pics

    Here are just a few more pics with a little more of the case done.. I have painted the inside with second coat of iron and it is almost ready for rusting.. the front cover looks great, but i debating wether or not to leave it alone or put a fan grill on it and make a cut out.
    The case:

    another shot

    Coming out nice, the front really looks good...

    As to the competing case questions, we do not compete with each other but share ideas. Look at convergence. I am not competing with Orac 3 or other plexi cases but borrowing idea from them... Now if we were in a contest together I would try and beat you... but that is a different story :D

    Dude, that case looks manky [which I suppose is good for this mod :D].

    Are you going to put a sealant on the paint? I thought it might scratch off inside and make a mess. Might be using paint on one of my cases :) .

    uploadit.org or photobucket both support hotlinking so you'd be fine with those two. :D :thumb:
