Here are some pics of my current mod of Spawn, any comments/suggestions are welcome. Hope you'll enjoy. Cheers!


Here's the stock image of the case:

Here are some beginner pics of the case, I just tapped off the front to make Spawn's symbol

The idea for the case came from the comics itself, I wanted to convey the comic feel for the case. Even read through the first 50 or so comics to get some ideas :D


Here we have pics of the side panel complete with a crappy looking nibbled case window, for this I used a grinding bit to chop up the paint a little for that worn armor look, then did a few coats of red paint topped off with a little india ink smeared into the panel for a dirty worn armor look, the window molding I purchased wasn't the right length :(. Soon I am ordering some more, I also have a special piece that is going into the window, none other than a #1 issue of Spawn signed by Todd McFarlane himself. Onto the pics:

Now for some interior pics...for this I wanted the interior to represent Spawn's burnt body. So I bought some bronze hammered style paint for the interior of the chassis, topped it with a little dap of tissue for a ripped look in spots then another coat of the hammered paint, then did a black and red mist over it for a little detail. The results are below:

Now for some later images of the case after I got my decals and badge for the front:

Hope you enjoyed the pics thus far....plenty more I'm doing with it. :evil:

Worklog Update...I've finished the side panel led which is shown below:

http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l270/sweetbmimi/NewSpawn001.jpg


Also I have the front panel pics with the updated badge with glowing eyes :D, you may also notice the front panel led which stock is blue I originally ripped a xbox 360 psu led out so I could change between green, orange, and red. However there is a coating over the led which make it look really crappy. Thus I had an extra high bright green led laying around that I decided to throw in. All these pics are below. Hope you enjoy, sorry the picture quality isn't the greatest. More to come soon!

Worklog Update 1/22/08: Here are some pics of what I consider the center point of the case mod....the signed #1 comic by Todd McFarlane. This will be going where the case window will be with a uv light to add some glow....

Also here is the Certificate of Authenticity for the non believers if any :D

Last but not least is the UV Spawn Icon that will be on the case window....what does everyone think should I use this or do you think it would take away from the comic...?????

Hope you all enjoy my mod....I appreciate any feedback and ideas. Cheers!

WORKLOG Update 01/25/08: Finally I got the right amount of window molding, so I installed the window, got the comic in and the spikes back in keep in mind the extra space between the edge of the comic and the window will have a hellfire effect led:D....what do you think????

Alright Guys check it out Issue 143 with a Acrylic touch, The green glow is representing the glow effect I hope to achieve by blacking out some of the acrylic :D

http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l270/sweetbmimi/Spawnworkcopy.jpg


Here's a representation of it with blackout
http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l270/sweetbmimi/SpawnBlackout.jpg

or how bout issue #70 always loved that one and the blackout with the glow might look awesome
