Yes Warlock.... you all Know I put Obsidian on hold for this one.
A short history of this project as I had posted it in Obsidans thread.
Warlock has been playing HTPC since I started on Obsidian. it was sitting next to the T.V. I was hoping some one would recognize it. I posted somethings on that mod way back under a different name, back then it was named Vision(and I never really completed it). also my name was different I cant recall what it was.
Originally Vision was a 3200+ AMD Athlon with 1 gig ram and sli'ed NV6800GT's all water cooled. But vision slowly evolved in some thing less when my MSI neo4 diamond Mainboard fried itself and one of the GFX cards with it. By that time I Played World of Warcraft (thats when it chanced name: Warlock.)so one of the two 6800GT's would do fine. but I brought Warlock Back from the Dead. This time with a simpler Mainboard. and a 4000+ AMD Athlon and now 2 gig's of ram and the one remaining 6800GT. This worked for some time but eventually you stop wow(a clear minded person would I think). And then you find out the world has changed around you. (damn what happened!)
I could not play the new games on highest(or even high for that matter) any more. I needed something nicer a 8800GTX. whooo.... That was a upgrade. but the case itself looked how shall I put it like this --> so that brings us to the (not so) secret (any more) project. Called Warlock's Resurrection. more on this soon.....
Now That being Said I will introduce you all with the old Warlock. Have a look.http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3178/2412213637_375c927b02_b.jpg

I have taken Warlock Apart. And I cleaned the case. no pictures of this sorry.
But I have the Sketch up screens to show you what I am planning for the core of this mod.http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2092/2476205309_ce1d414b5e_o.jpg
As you can see in the screenshot I haven't really thought about the exterior yet. no window designs, no front designs. but i can tell you what I am thinking right now.
I want to cover the exterior with black (fake) leather. and inside the case ill be using loads of red velvet like fabric's.to give it a really evil and classy feel.
For the rad on the top. I want to design a cover, It will look like I have a book placed on the top. This book will also have a evil feel to it.
As we go to the bottom inside the case you will see that I have cleared it. This is done with a reason here Ill build an diorama to present a warlocks work desk. with potions, scrolls, magic dust and a book. this book will house a Western digital Raptor 160gb Hard drive. since the drive is windowed you would like to look into it so I thought up something story like. the book will be opened and on the pages visible you will see some sort of a vision spell. on the second page you will see a "burn" hole and this is also a window so we can see the Hard drive.
The water cooling will be filled with blue uv reactive coolant this is Because I wanted to tribute the Mana Bar for a longtime. so All of you out there who enjoyed your blue Mana, Spellpower and even your Eve bar here is a tribute
now we all know what I am planning lets make an other step.
yours Cheron.
