yeah, i just got more pics

i had just recently made that blow hole.

just did a new paint job, I plan to get UV chalk or paint to highlight the crackling effects in the pain job, (this was a "mistake" the first coat had not fully cured, but i kinda ment to do it lol!)

down the front-left side of the case
then I'll find some UV orange acrylic (using uv leds) to put behind it so that the letters glow
then i'll put a blow hole in the front 120mm made of pvc painted black and shaped to fit. then put/or make a "half life 2" 120mm fan grill to finish it off.

Ideas from linear case mods™ (http://linear1.org/mods/)
i will show a pic of the design. l8ter

edit: heres the design i made. i will use a 12cm HL2 Fan grill and i plan to use a UV orange Fan

I would not perminantly put any game name or anything on your case. What do you do when you are tired of that game and find something new cool? If you just paint it you can always redo it later. It is good that you are getting creative though! How about some sort of neon paint for the letters?

yeah, do regular hardware stores or hobby stores carry that stuff or do you have to get it online?
Half life will be around for along time, my case won't last that long (i'm already getting a Super Lanboy for my next Super fx-55 rig)
this case now has a *little* noise problem. lol :hihi:

i might just stick with the 120mm blow hole for now. those letters are going to be a big job. so far i've got the PVC cut and painted i can get a 120mm fan grill from nate, so i'll stick with that for now.
