I concur, some people are not appreciating the effort put into it.

Lol good one b, I respect anyone who can buy parts and put together a sophisticated machine such as a computer some people can’t even install a hard drive buddy. Nice case though people who don’t know better would look at it and laugh saying you got an old thing.

Honestly?

A+ mod. Creative and fun, and a nice radiator housing worked into the theme. I don't think anyone would mistake it for an old slow PC though, with the obvious watercooling and giant window.

We need some clearer pics and more of them though, I really want to see the detail pelase!

Whilst I don't like the look of the final product (just not my cup of tea) I repect the amount of work that has gone into this.

Good work Johnynoi :)

Good work there, looks really good, and it's definately an interesting idea.
I'd love to see some more shots, of interior and stuff.

Anyhu, I'll give it an 8.

I Like Your Rusting Effect

good job!!! I've done a similar mod, check out my BIOHAZARD thread.

forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=58644


I've done the same type of rusting effect. I was wondering how you did yours? I really like how you did the seams and around screws and such.

did you paint the effect or was it a weathering compond?

again, great job.

I rated it 9/10. For advanced creativity and overall execution.
Looks Great! I'm really digging the weathered look it seems to be the new case fashion.
