I did lots of things like painting them with crackles etcīecause i had two fan grills, i had to play with the other one too Next stop, was to play a bit with the fan grills and logo that had to be placed on top of the case.Īt first i had to sand them down to get rid of that plastic finish and roughen a bit of their surface The more paint we apply, the bigger the crackles would be.and on the other hand, the less paint we apply, the smaller the crackles would be. Once we paint the base colour we want we don't let it dry and instantly we paint on top of it a layer of matt colour at random pattern to create the crackles. The process is simple.for the crackle paint effect, i used common spray cans that you can find everywhere.so it goes like this. You'll have to forgive me in this one, but i can't find an image of the side panel painted orange, i might have though a video of painting with crackles.so i will post it next! so here it is with a fine pass of primerĪfter that.i moved on, and painted it with orange

The whole colour theme of this case mod is orange/black and finally it is time to paint it with primer Here i am also experimenting with some paint effects etc to see how it will look in the end. I wanted to add more effect and added more and more.so after a few passes it finally looks like this. Now, let's move into the right side panel and add some scorched/melted effect.įor that purpose, i used my trusty finger and a combination of polyester putty and fiberglass paste.ġst pass of thee effect looks like this. Have fun, and mod it till it bleeds, then mod it again! That is all for now, you will soon be updated so be patient! The cut, shouldn't be perfect, but my OCD Kicked in. With lot of patience and lot of filling, i achived this result! Here i couldn't cut such a curve, so i relied to my faithful files! The next day i proceeded with the side window cut. I made two drawings because i didn't like the first one, so then, i marked the second that had to be cut.īecause it was late at that time, i only made one cut only and left it for the next day. In here, the drawing shouldn't be perfect but a bit angled So, it is time to cut the outline with a razor blade.Īfter that step, it was time to draw the outline on the masked side panel.

I removed the left side panel so i can create the outline of the HL2 logo and mask it so i can cut it.Īfter that, i had printed the hl2 logo in an A2 paper.Īlong with that, i bought some Dremel goodies like a speedclic disk with the driver
