Just to let you know Antedos I do believe this is his first mod as well I think that he said he may have cut a window out too i could be mistaken but i think i read that somewhere in his log he can correct me if im wrong :)
Re: TRIBALOVERKILL, "Blackout" Updated--> 06/24/05
May it be his first.. and many more to come.. but he has also.. the space to work in.. I mean.. a workshop.. hehe.. i don't have such space, nor the tools he has at his disposal... anyway.. great mod.. and i'm sure everyone agrees it's one of the best anyone has seen.. i can't wait to see it finished...

Your right. The only modding before this was cutting out a window and then cutting out a hole in that window for a badong kit. All my past computers were basically put together and thats about it. Well,... I'm off to do some work on it. PEACE!

Re: TRIBALOVERKILL, "Blackout" Updated--> 06/24/05
Sorry, feel asleep. Heres my first attempt at some shields. Made of cardboard:)
I think its a bit deep(from the mobo out). I think I can make something a bit lower in profile. Also if I cover a bit more I think it wont look so confined and tall? I'm going ot try something else out now.
Re: TRIBALOVERKILL, "Blackout" Updated--> 06/24/05
Ok,... I've been up ALL friggin night working on this issue with the shields. I created two models in which we have tio choose from. Choose wisely,... model #1.
Model #2.
Both models.
Now,... choose one and tell me how you would want it. As in all UV green or some Uv green and some aluminum, half and half. What would you want UV and what would you want UV. Now,... personally. I like #1. Originally I wanted it with polished aluminum sides and UV in the center. But,... my gurl brought it to my attention that if the sides were UV and lit up, you would see a nice glowing edge. That would be HOT! BUT! I still have a lot of other stuff to do to these things. I want to drill holes in them , cut some grooves, and some other shapes. The edges of all of those cutouts will be glowing. Which means if my sides were aluminum and because of that the edges wouldnt be glowing,... so what. Theres going to be plenty of stuff glowing. You know what I mean? It would be sweet though. You would see that nicely through the side of the computer:) So,... let me know. Pick one,... and tell me how you want it! I'm goign to bed for a little bit. Goingto try and wake up soon to read this and get started on the real deal:)

Personally, I'd go with UV reactive colored acrylic for the side panels. I'd also probably try and build the shields out of .20 styrene which you can then paint up how you want, and would be fairly durable to stand up to some handling. Crimson's MUCH more knowledgable in the area of working with styrene than I am, so it might be best to talk with him about that part, but that's how I'd do it.
Hope my input helps.
Re: TRIBALOVERKILL, "Blackout" Updated--> 06/24/05
I like #1 ... very nice design. I think you and your apprentice ;) both have good ideas on the side panels... what about UV behind the alum on the side panel so that a little sticks out and you still have that glowing edge?
