Case Mod Pictures

[Taelon]

Our beloved community member, y2kzorak (who's a close friend of mine, and for some reason hesitant to make her own post here), would like for y'all to have a look at her fabulous case mods, done on her Saturn and Dreamcast...... She surprised me with how well they turned out, even

So toss this one at your browser...

Enjoy! :cheers

Very nice, has she ever though of doing that as a side job for people? Her work is most excellent.

 

[Gallstaff]

Yes, I agree it is most triumphant

 

[y2kzorak]

Thanks, folks!

Hmmm.. I guess for those who don't feel like clicking the link I'll do what I should've done in the first place instead of being a chicken.

Case #1

Case #2

Um.. Enjoy and stuff! Or not....

wouldn't you say it depends on how it looks in the end?

what about simple stuff like installing a blue LED?

or putting an cd access LED in a model 2 saturn?

i wouldn't go to the extent of painting something on my saturn or dc but i think simple stuff looks really cool.

and some feedback for y2kzorak, i think in some aspects your results look good and in other points it doesn't. It depends on personal taste really.

i like what you've done with the saturn, there is no way i would be able to do that. the only thing i didnt like was the big white sparkles on the logo.

the dc, good concept but i didnt like the white lines along the edge of the unit. I probably would have used the "round sonic" (from the sonic adventure front cover) and that would have fit perfect on the cd lid.

anyway good to see some mods its always interesting and i can appreciate the time and skill to do this. well done

Looks great -- I like the art, but I just wouldn't want it myself

Well, judging by one of the replies, I guess you were justified in being chicken to post your pictures. Some people have no tact. :huh

I for one applaud your effort and creativity. :cheers I don't think I would go the graphic route personally, I'm leaning toward painting one of mine a different color, but that's my tastes. You earned the right to mod your consoles as you see fit when you bought them. :smash I think they look very good. And they are certainly unique.

Kudos,

snume

Translation of the previous social commentary:

Homosexuals are 50 percent more likely to modify the outter casings of videogame units. :huh

Such a negative guy. I feel sorry for you if that's how you see this world.

 

[Ratamahatta]

That looks incredibly neat. I think I might mod my spare dreamcast in that manner and put it in my car to match the car. That would make it look like its part of it actually. Great Ideas, keep them pumping out.

Also just curious as to how you kept the sega logo on your saturn, if you sprayed it wouldnt the paint have covered the "Sega" on the bottom left hand corner?

 

[racketboy]

Don't take what Jurai says personally.

He just feels the need to talk like that about everything -- I just accept it now

 

[Jaded God]

Awesome cases y2k.. I want one done by you

I seriously would consider it if you could do it for me

And as for Jurai... You guys need to lighten up... I mean its just, just Jurai! lol Thats how he is.

 

[Frisky]

They look GREAT, y2k!

Wish I was that talented

Heh... I'm a late poster. Anyway, about the paint. It is made by Krylon, and the type is Mystique. It comes in this kit with black base coat, the color change, and clear top coat. The paint changes from black to green to blue to purple to magenta, depending on the light. They also sell it in gray to green and red to orange varieties. As for why the logo was visible, near as I can tell it's pretty much a clearcoat type of paint. If I get the paint again, I would love to experiment with a red base color.

And Jaded God, if you think your case can make it to my corner of Michigan, I would be glad to hook ya up.

And thanks again for the all the feedback!

 

[Jaded God]

Michigan!?! I live in Michigan too... Canton/Plymouth area.. If you know where that is.
