Well I got a bit bored a few minutes ago and decided to see if I could make a ruff design of what I hope for in the final paint job.

This is what I came up with. Used a bit of filtering and airbrush with gimp

Im not sure how i will get the effect .

Well jopefully tomorrow ill stop waisting time with pictures and start on the real thing . Oh well..

Any comments welcome.

Well I got home from work tonight and a little package from dogtagsonline.com was sitting on the steps. I think they will be a great addition to the theme.

I got bored and played with sketchup

I think this mod has taken a turn. I see it no longer as a battlefield 2 mod, but rather a military theme. I just dont see it working out well as a BF2 theme unless I paint it desert camo and throw on some hidden elements from the game (tank numers, etc.) oh well.. Maybe ill stick to the plan on my future Battlefield 2142 mod (hint .hint.. )

I think I can use a few ideas from this. It looks cool.. lol
IDEAS

Well I have a few more toys for this mod.

The first one is a pair of speakers that ive had for ages. They work great and they are light duty so I should have no problem running them off of a PSU. The speakers are only 2 inches in diameter and they should fit nicely in the lid of the case. After-all, what good is BF2 without some sound.

The second one I made. Its a switch box that I can turn on and off 4 devices that use molex connectors. Its not done, I need to tighten the switches and line everything up but it works great

WARNING: PICS LOOK LIKE CRAP. I was in my dark basement and my camera would blow-out the image with flash and I didn't have a good spot light I could use.

I have some pics of some progress I have made. Not much but all for the better.

I scraped the molding idea because it looked like crap. Instead, The doors will be completely flush and even to the case. Im using bondo to make everything smooth and even.

I also decided to use some bondo to fill in the rounded areas on the back. This was just to give me a straight line.

I also made a new front panel.

Everything needs to grinded a bit, sanded, and bododed to get those perfect edges . I will fill in the open areas around the rounded parts with bondo as well.

Ill also be cutting a new door from anther cooler I have.

I received some fan grills from xoxide.com today. Well atleast two od the frills will be for fans .

These are the basic plain grills I thought would look good on the case. There are twoo of each size (120mm and 60mm)

Whats 60mm grills for, you ask? Well I needed matching grills for the speakers and they almost fit perfectly.

I think they will look good once painted black.

Thanks for viewing.

Almost forgot. I will also be making a power remote for this case but I am unsure of how it will be done. If you have any insight please post comments on that thread, not in this work log.

This is the design for the remote once finished,the c4 detonator, hopefully.
