So here's the deal:
I've been considering a case mod based on HL2 (seems like these are few in number), and I've got a few ideas. First of all, I would like to replicate the metallic look of Combine buildings and outposts. I've got some idea as to how I will paint the case, but any pointers would be appreciated (like the type of paint).
More importantly, I need to find a case model that will be easy to modify yet retain some of it's original quality, and I would like to keep costs to a minimum (at least on the case).
I need some help with decoration ideas as well. A case painted metallic blackish-blue will be sort of boring. I was thinking about finding/building a couple model Striders and Gunships, but that might be a bit costly and time-consuming (though I would certainly enjoy it ).
So, do you guys think you could help me out? Got any ideas of your own? Go ahead and discuss your designs here if you like. Thanks in advance!
