that seems like it would work. just use very very little of the UV dye I think.....doesn't hurt to experiment :)

I really don't know if that is possible. One alternative might be to use really wide tubing, like 1.5" or something in the middle tube sections (not coming out of the barbs) you could put some smaller (like fish tank airline tubing) tubing inside that is sealed with either the UV reacive red dye or the blood colored water. This way you can have both at the same time. This will deffinetely raise your temps some since it will restrict some of the flow and knowing how you like your extra ghz of processor speed since you OC'd, you aren't likely to do this. Worth mentioning though.


shitty attempt to descibe above:

yeah i see what your saying, but yoru right... no way, lol. I dunno, i don't think it would throw off the case bad at all (if it were neon red). I mean, i've gotta have some rice (neon glowing) in my case right?
 
What about using some El wire? You could wrap it around certain parts and then cover them with something. You could take an old t-shirt and make it look like bloody flesh and wrap it around the EL wire that is around the tubes. Then when you turn on the El wire it will glow through the fabric and look eerie. Even if you don't do the El wire thing, I think the idea of having bloody flesh parts made out of fabric or something would looks sweet in the case. Put them sporatically around the case, on the floor, ceiling, make it look like it is caught on a sharp edge, etc.
 
I work some in the ER at a local hospital and grabbed soem "cloth" surgical tape (the kind that stains really well with blood) and i plan on using that in the case.. I thought about wrapping small sections of the tubing with it and giving it that "dry, crusty and biomechanical" feel to it.

Sweet! You already had that idea taken care of then. I look forward to seeing it.
 
BLOOD!!!!!!! MOOORRREEE BLOOOOOODDDD... a bit of blood splatter always makes the world go round :D
lookin good :D

actauly lookin damn good, i vote SHOOT THE CASE WITH A 12 GAGE! :D
 
Can someone point me in the right direction of a good 5.6 lcd screen for ~ $100...i've already read the LCD forum and can't really fine one from there...any help for a decent little LCD screen.
 
I'm looking for some "modders mesh" that one web site has it for 6.95 per sq ft, which i think is kinda expensive. Anyone know where else i can find it? It's really called perforated metal. So a little help please.
 
Hey G,

Im in pensacola too. Id love to see that thing when you ahve it done.

have you looked at mashies mod? he is capturing the bloody wall look pretty well with his painting technique.
 
sure man. Yeah i saw it, its very nice. I've been working on the same similar thing (with molding clay). Alot of our idea's are all similar, but i'm glad to see each of us taking a different approach the the game's features.
 
Just brainstorming here:

If you could find something that would cloud the water, I would think it would make the glow look more like blood. Also, I remember something me and some friends did when we were juvinile delinquents. Maroon RIT dye in a pool makes it look like Jaws just ate someone. ;)
 
heh. This milliput shit is "da shit." Its SO easy to use. I've got some similar guts and stuff crafted onto the motherboard tray window now and it looks great. Pics up soon.
 
man i dont know how i missed this mod but its looking great so far!
I really hope that hurricane didnt hit him or his area that would be teh suck :(

MORE PICS MUST SEE PROGRESS!!!
 
Sorry guys for not posting in a while. Been really busy with immunology class (college sucks). But i do have some more done to the case and i promise to have some new pics up in the next couple days. But for me like mentioned above earlier, i have to watch out for hurricane Ivan, which is coming right this way so keep us poor Floridians in mind down here.

for the blood in water... i would try to get some red oil (that wouldent mix with the water, and then use a seprate water based dye to color the water. this way it would look like the blood flowing thru the water, it be a cool effect. or even clear oil and blood water. if the pump was alwase on, then it shouldent settle out, and it should alwase mantain the effect.

btw i LOVE the resovwar idea, it looks awsome. the aluminum corners would go great if you painted them rusted, then used brand new rivits (stanless rivets on reg steel look)

also ive been playing around with EL wire for a while, and you can compleatly submerge it in water (at least the type i got, from glowire.com) for ever and as long as you seal the ends it runs fine. if you drilled little holes in your tubes (at least the ones you could see real well) at either end and then ran the EL wire thu it it could make luminecent blood.

also, deff gloss up the case, but it looks awsome. great job, i havent seen that type of hand painting in forever.

as for the window... i ask you to remeber the bad guy in the game with the whip that would totaly reck you unless you had a shotty. if you made a window that looked like it had been "whiped" thru, like a line of that metal riped out from inside, it would be awsome.and if you had 9mm or shotty shells going INWARDS, it would complement it i think. or maybe over crowd it.

just my thoughts... it looks awsoeme...keep up the great work
 
Well guys its FINALLY good to be back. Still don't have interent so i'm posting from work. Ivan literaly destroyed Pensacola and everythiong sucked really bad the few days after Ivan and Still sucks. Im still out of college and that really sucks. Missed 3 weeks of Class so far and counting. Anyways, I did get some work done on the case and should have some new pics up soon. Just checking in.
 
glad to see you're back and okay especially after Ivan.

we here in central FL (Lake county) got slammed pretty good this go around with Jeanne but that was about it.

neither Charley, Frances nor Ivan hardly did any damage to our area but Jeanne sure did.

lots and lots of downed trees meaning lots and lots of people w/o electricity.

thank God that our neighborhood hasnt lost electricity not one time yet through all four hurricanes.

*Ozzie knocks on wood.*

Noob, original, as in... "all of the attempts at mod work you've been nice enough to share with us too?"

If you're not providing anything substantial yourself, you've no reason to give your negative opinion.
Welcome to [H].

Ya didnt try hard enough..maybe next time?:

Posted: Tue Aug 10, 2004 9:44 am Post subject: Doom III: Project Mars City (gruntville.com) and construction was started about 8 days before that ;) This stuff isnt about "subject originality" anyway--this project has it's unique qualities just like the others out there :D
 
o i know that, and im not trying to "insult" crimson sky or mashie, both of you do excellent work and are very original. but i was just showing this n00b that gclg2000 started this before he could have seen your two logs... and no, it isnt a race to see who started first.

o btw

that still leaves 2 days before you started work...

but again i could really care less who started what first, and who had the idea first, cause im following all 3 logs closely...

keep it up guys

Well the good news is. College class is back in session and i have internet again now. Pics up today soon.
