I can't see it real well in that picture, how about posting some pics showing the window. From what I saw it looks pretty cool.

I like the stone work on the front bezel. Did you just score the existing bezel or build one up from scratch?

To answer the previous questions: I am updating the website as I type with some better pics.

The computer face plate was built up from the original. I used Bondo on the front for textured look. I then used a Dremel with a cut-off wheel to etch the surface. I then used scapel tools and files to round the edges. Finished off with some textured spray paint.

The profile of the gargoyle was made from a gargoyle statue I have. I then traced it and cut it with a jigsaw and finished with, of course, my Dremel.

It is still a work in progress. I have to add some small gargoyles at the top corners, like the catherdrals. Then come up with something for the other side.
