i had this idea a few weeks ago coming up with small mod ideas here and there, and i though why not post it. first of all, i plan on getting this computer case: http://www.xoxide.com/clearacatxca.html just a simple case with plenty of room to do whatever. i thought about on the right side (if facing the front) of the case having " NEMESIS " either etched or painted on the top, and a picture on the bottom part. the picture is either going to be etched, or stenciled and spray painted on there in black and white. something like this: http://www.residentevilfan.com/gallery/image.asp?id=579

below the picture will be LEDs facing upward to give it some light (thats why the etching sounds good to me)
on the top i was thinking about the umbrella logo with some handles: http://www.residentevilfan.com/gallery/image.asp?id=807
like that.
for the front cd drives, i thought of a covering for the cd drives painted to match the case, and for the button, cut the back shell off of a bullet:

and just pushing that as the button,(i thought thats a pretty cool idea myself!)
i have not , however, thought of anything good for the other(left) side panel of the case, and thats where you guys come in :D
on the inside i though maybe to make T and G virus reservoirs(if not, just a prop on the inside) :http://www.geocities.com/resuomeksi3/m15.jpg
sorry for no design art yet, just those pics i got.
any ideas/suggestions would be great!! i am fairly new at modding, and this will be my first "extreme" mod (few smaller ones done, but fairly uneventful)
thanks a lot!!

I am currently still coming up with ideas for an "Umbrella" themed case from Resident Evil. Your plans sound ok.

I'd say just have sort of have bendable piping coming out from the case and going back in or have something like that in the case to give it that 'Nemesis' feel.

that helps a lot, sounds really good. i was thinking of some black wire looms

like a big one for outside the case, and some smaller ones for the wires on the inside

anything else come to mind?

That stuff would be perfect, try having some biohazard warning and stuff like that. If you had water cooling you could make the bottle that holds the coolant into a 'health spray' bottle. Even just some EL Cable to highlight some parts.

yeah, i plan on having it water cooled, and am still deciding what the res would be, and thats a very creative idea. ive also considered a purplish liquid in a clear tube with an embryo(or whatever the thing is) inside it. another idea i had was to get some pleather and put on the edges of the case like Nemesis' suit. i also need some input on this idea. i was looking on ebay, and i saw some nemesis action figures for about $20-$30. i though of putting that on the inside with some red lighting effects around it. would that be a dorky idea? or not? in my mind i think it would be pretty cool if i did it right and made it look good, but i wanted to know if it would look kinda stupid to other people.
