Mods:
Complete paint inside & out. Cut out Indians head in side panel and put in red plexi glass. Cut out an exhaust hole in top. Cut out hole in front lower case and bondo so I could fit a baseball (half) in there. I also painted baseball white with red threads I drilled holes in threads, put a 120 mm fan in behind ball. Found a little baseball bat attached to front. I turned my DVD drive into a stealth drive. Added new feet that light up blue to go with case.

I now take this one with me on the road. My 1200 just got to big and to expensive to be traveling with me. LOL

First!

Great painting, nice cable mangament, lighting under case looks just awesome! And the ball on the front panel... 10/10!!!
 
i like the bat and ball idea paint could use some work but nice idea. maybe get the stadium air brushed on the side or something.get the whole indians theme going. if it where me i might even go with the major league theme of the indians. you know the charlie sheen baseball movie but that is just me.8/10
 
Very creative idea. You did a great job! I gave you a 8/10 for creativity. I would have gave you a 9/10 but I think if you spend more time with the cable management, you will notice that you can hide alot more wires than you think.


I do have one problem with the baseball in the front. It is obstructing airflow into the case. The front fan is very important part of keeping cool air coming into your case. But hey! That's just me. I think the baseball should have been cut in half and mounted onto the unused drive bays. That way you keep the whole theme and you are able to use the front intake for its original purpose.
 
JM it gets pretty go airflow, Like I said I drilled holes in threads but also theres a good 1/4 inch all the way around the ball. My temps are pretty good I get 34c on both cores and 42c on video card.
 
I voted 4/10 because:

nice painting good theme but i definitely dont like red and blue together
