INTRODUCTION:
After four years of production work, Star Wars: The Old Republic will be released on December 20th. To celebrate this milestone, I am building a case mod dedicated to SWTOR. I will be playing the Republic side, so the mod is named "For The Republic".
SUMMARY OF PLANS:
The base case will be inexpensive and the only visable part of it will be the bezel. The rest of the case will be covered in carved foam, then skinned in epoxy fiberglass for strength. A cosmetic skin of scored, sheet stryene will probably be the last layer. The forms and colors are a mix of game concept art, beta images, and some other random Star Wars stuff. There will also be a little kit bashing involved. Most of this mod is cosmetic, but at the same time there will be functional improvements. The left side will gain 20-25mm of clearance for larger CPU coolers. The right side will gain 25-30mm of space for cable management behind the motherboard tray. The top fan will move 20-25mm away from the motherboard for CPU cooler clearance as well.
ROUGH SKETCHES:
(easier for me as it would be a nightmare to render)...
Left Side
This is the top of the case. I'm not happy with the top vents. I'll probably do something different.
The right side will have a painted Galactic Republic logo.
