Darth_Fluffy said:That CCFL looks suspiciously pink.. I thought someone told where to get the blood-red ones?
Awesome. What will you etch in the other window?CrimsonSky said:Nice and red in person--could be just the image needs color correcting--besides..this is just a test--just happened to have the Lazer LEDs in the shop. Firey red-orange is the goal in the end
cgrant26 said:Sweetness! After the work DeathLoc and I put into making that window etch, it's really nice to finally see it installed and lit up. I feel truly honored to have had a small part in making this case. I know it's probably impossible to guage, but how far along percentage-wise does it feel to you? Keep up the great work! You definately have a gift.
*EDIT* And another shot out to Kyle and Co. for making an uninterrupted pics sticky.
Andar said:i wasnt gonna say anything til now, but do you ever get worried that the window of your case WILL open a gate to hell?
yeah, it looks *that* good

Qwertyman said:hey crim, whats the tally so far for the cost of this mod? your doing some really awesome high tech stuff.
siege said:Crim, your ability to create things from scratch is unbelievable. When I first saw the spotlight pic, I thought you went and bought someThey look really professional. So I take it the LEDs hidden in rocks was a no go?
Also, what did you think about my window lighting idea in my last post? Not really pushing for it, mostly just wondering what you thought about it as a concept...thinking of doing it in a future mod (though it would be cool if you ended up doing it in this one) ...
CrimsonSky said:To be honest--- i just got so sick of friggin rocks--about 45 hours went into the terrain alone--so..i decided to pull some brain muskels and make a couple of industrial lookin spotlights![]()
Your idea would be cool--but that would mean some sort of moving (rotating at least) object between the lights and the edge of the plexi--and would require this on each set of lights to have the desired effect....yikes at least three--thats a lot of precise little mechanisms, no?
Darth_Fluffy said:I love the spotlight idea. It's just as original as making waterblocks for RAM on your video card (I'm so going to do that!)
Darth_Fluffy said:I suppose I could, but I don't have a digital camera. I might borrow one to post the finished pics, though.
So start a worklog and get to it.

CrimsonSky said:The terraforming operations are basically complete on the base.My next step is to integrate 2 rocks with hidden LEDs to light up the lower half of the Doom3 logo with amber light.
Terrain 1
The white oval section you see is a rough opening for the HDD fan vent. It will not be oval once the grill is modeled into it. I'm thinking two fat vent pipes that go up the side of the building.
Terrain 2
Terrain 3
Here you see the section removed for access to the inside of the base:
Terrain 4
Terrain 5
Terrain 6
Terrain 7
It's simple. All it involves is a block of copper, and a copper tube. It's the tubing connecting one ramblock to another that will make it look really cool.CrimsonSky said:Finished pics?..We want to see it in progress so we can rip it to shit and make all sorts of suggestions on how you can make it better...c'mon...Ideas aint worth a damn here..action is.![]()
