wow i'm really starting to love your work, one thing that makes this project for me is the mesh you got doubling as a fangrill/cosmetics, looks really nice, and how clean your mods are, like the speakers in the "foot" very well modded, looks great and is very pratical. really like the clear CD-ROM door you made, it's sweet, but other than that only thing i would do is change the color of the CD front bezel to either match the rest of the case or accent it **edit** the foot of the case looks almost like a Alienware case, does any one else see the similaities?
thanx guys! thanx for the comments too ¿þŘΩĐĮĢΫ? but the cdrom is the original 32X from yrs ago,(used for testing purposes) i have a new Pioneer DVD burner that will be eventually painted the same color as the tower ( what ever that will be still havent decided yet) and the case of the DVD will be polished or chromed. Cheers.

The shape of the grills just made the best use of the shape of the base. but i do see where your comming from, and think i will look at changing it. Cheers.
there is no need to change it i love the look you got, give Alienware a run for there money with a $80ish case, looks good i would not change the style
I actually thought the cd/dvd door bezel was gonna be a flip down one, like the way the blue G3 macs front bezel works. Still pretty cool though
Man, Def. I am really looking foward to seeing how your HP-Res 2 Case is going to turn out, you've already outdone your self from HP1, and that case was bad ass to begin with. All Hail Defyant!! *bows down*
Wow.. amazing work there! Love the idea w/ the speakers/eject-button/usb.. Looks good and functional as well. Keep up the good work, man!
wow, this thing is really coming along nicely. keep up with the creative and innovative ideas! btw: how is the bezel attached to the drive tray? I was expecting another pic with screws or something on the outside to show how it's mated...
Atm its just sitting there! the cdrom in there won't be the final drive and due to diff shapes and drive doors etc , the mod can be finished till the drive of choice is chosen, of course a DVD bruner of some sort But yes it will be attached using the spacer and clear plastic bolt method. im toying with also making a custom front perpex facia for the DVD as well, then using clear 3/16 clear perpex as the spacers. Im also making a new multimedia base its version 2 as much as liked the first one im hoping the new on will fit better with the theme of the case and a new more stylish button !!! of course keeping intheme frome a HP burner, Its still in very early stages and looking very ruff, Its under spadeputty tonight , i let it sit for day then rub it back and primer for some final shots
