Combine fear the Half-Life 2 case mod

First Post! Wow, that must have taken allot of time and effort. Sweet case mod though. But wheres the crowbar? =D

I want one!

People who SAy "First Post!" are all inbred idiot hicks with no life.

Hey I heard someone got the first post here...I just swung by to check it out..nice.

I'm glad you enjoyed it guys :) It was a ton of fun to make, its actually my first ever case mod i've ever made :) I was thinking of adding some dramatic up lighting by installing a cold cathode light along the bottom of the case on the inside. I'm not sure how much of the fan duct would block the lighting though. I like the idea of a crow bar, but where would i put it? Less is more sometimes i guess, perhaps to many more details would be overkill.

The whole project took about a month of my random spare time i found here and there, Most of the time was wasted waiting for good warmer days to spray paint outside. Its starting to snow up here in the great white north, so those days were hard to come by. The great thing about a project like this is what you learn from along the way and i can't wait to start another one :)

That's one of the gayest things i've ever seen!!!!!!!!

looks good

Looks kinda awesome, my only dislike is the silver panel at the front, some how it just doesn't fit in with the rest of the mod to me :(

Now, that is hot. Good job PinPoint. It just oozes radioativity.

Damn, that is kickass. Nice job dude.

Joe, what are you thinking!?!

I always worry about potentially damaging my system so I haven't tried a mod as of yet. I was thinking I might try picking up a used system at some point after the holidays and see what I can create. I am thinking about doing a GoW or Halo theme. Can you give any advice from what you learned on your mod?

thats looks SiCk!

looking real nice

SUF FTW!!!

SUF IS WERE ITS AT!

Nice Case. Can you do like a tutorial on what you used and how you did it. It looks so cool, and I want to do one :D

I like to learn things the hard way and did learn a lot from the way i did things on this project.

here's a few time saving tips

- Make sure you have somewhere good to spraypaint, dont attempt to do it indoors just cause its raining out side.

- Cut the window slightly smaller then the shape of the hole of the window, so that you have room to install the molding to hold it in place

- Plan your design first and try out lots of different ides at that stage before jumping right in, i figured out a whole bunch of potential problems that way first

- Get other people to look at it before you start and also while your working on it, its easy to get to close to a project and it helps to get it looked at with a fresh pair of eyes.

Here's a pic of some of the concept ideas as i was designging it. Next time i will make sure to make a work log documenting everything i did along the way, i didnt think of that till i was nearly done.
