Well who am I to keep the peace between forums? Just another case modder showing his work log and hopeing to inspire the younger generation.

Over at PR we are haven a case mod competition among the members, staff included, I don't know who made the rules but oh well. Even since the stint a fellowe member pulled on the forums here I have came by and visited on a regular basis to see how Yoshi is doing. No I don't steal ideas, I get inspired by other work and give full credit where it is due. Enough of the intro to this work log.

What I have here is going to be my rendition of a sonata case and me (a dragon lover)

As allways I'm open to all coments.....It suxors, its great, its a hunk of junk scrap it?

The antec sonata is a very rigded case with only one removable door. So to mod the other side and top I need to drill out the pop rivets to mod the top and sides.

Well anyway here is the start, cutting out a 14" hole to instal a window that will be heated up and bubbled out for a 3D effect. I have seen it done but this will be my first atempt to do it.

Nice job on the design btw, i like the one you are using, is it actually engraved? or etched, or is it a vynil?

It's etched (sand blasted) into the plexi, I have a how too guide (http://guides.pimprig.com/modding/lokies_window_etching_technique.php) on PR if you wanna check it out. And yes I do these for other people.
