Re: Biohazard
Some progress today! I started the bondo work on the bezel getting those gaps closed up, and the "sewer pipe" held in place. I think im going to go get styrofoam and make the "rocky" surface from that, then put a coat of fiber glass resin on it. That should be a LOT easier then making it all out of bondo, see as how half the case will be covered in this "rock". I also painted the window panel black.
Window panel. I'm going to etch the biohazard symbol into the back of it this weekend.
I put the styrofoam blocks on in there for the bondo to sit on something.
Most of it is covered now. I left plenty of room, though, for the tubes, and usb ports.
Ugh! What a mess.
Covered up the usb port holes, I'll sand it later.
I removed the styrofoam blocks after the bondo dried.
This took almost an hour to do this little amount.

Re: Biohazard
Okay, for the "rust" effect, I bought some Metallic Textured Hammered Rustoleum spray paint (copper color), and sprayed it all over the window panel, then I put on some black, then more rustoleum stuff. And immedialty took a newspaper and kind of rubbed it on it, letting the black show through... it looks pretty good, put I think I should of gone without putting on the rust stuff first, and just put on more black, then the rusto stuff. I'll try again later.

Re: Biohazard
ok first off the color on the side is awesome. If you were trying to get battered and rusted you acheived it man. The etch is alot better than I could do. Good job +rep man you deserve it.

Re: Biohazard
Great work with the side panel. The approach that you took goes by a couple of names--wrinkle effect is one, it is also referred to as a granite effect. Check out Ed Hubbs on Youtube; his airbrushing skills will blow your mind.
And that etch is top notch. What size etching bit did you use?
