Default Medal of Honor Warfighter Ammo Box

Medal of Honor: Warfighter

Yes i know this is forum is mainly focused on PC modding, i have followed this site for a long time now and posted a few Xbox cases before. I get a lot of my ideas from PC modders and follow a lot of there builds. If this is in the wrong section and you would like it removed, please do so.

New project for the month, this will be based on Medal of Honor: Warfighter developed by Danger Close and published by EA.

The Xbox 360 motherboard will be placed inside an Ammunition Box

I have done this before, but used two ammo boxes that were stacked on top of another. I was happy how this turned out, but I know there was plenty of room for improvements, This time going for a cleaner, single box look with a theme.



The ammunition box will need to be shortened in length as it is too long



Controller compared in size to the case



I removed the rubber seal around the lid, these cases are watertight the handles are tight on this case and its not something I want to struggle with opening and closing the case.



Some of these designs will be re done on the case once finished, as well as some Medal of Honor based text and designs





Perfect condition inside the case





Medal of Honor Facebook

Medal of Honor Twitter

Medal of Honor Youtube

Bought a new 4GB Xbox 360 S this week to use in the project, with the spare case I might make another built in screen for another project.



There is a few Youtube videos showing how to take apart the Xbox 360 S. Ill show some basic pictures of opening the case.

Pry open the top grill



Top and bottom surround









Take care when taking the faceplate off as there is a ribbon cable that will easily tear.





Drilling out each of the small welds on the support bar, wanted a cleaner look on the case



Pry it up and the bar should remove easily, with minimal damage to the case





Ventilation holes

Decided I will not be chopping this case, all that work to take out a few inches does not seem worth the effort. I don't mind a larger case. Support bar left some marks, sanded back what I can and will finish off with some filler



Sanded back the lid and a coat of primer

Still deciding on colours, I don't want to stick to the standard green again, maybe matte black or a dark grey with the stencil lettering and maybe some engraved badges of the Danger Close and EA logo's.

Thin coat of filler
