It took about 90 hours total time to build.

It was fun to build but more fun to play :)

That's some sweet work, Hail! Very awesome!

I like the orange LED behind the logo. That's a nice touch. The entire case is awesome, though. It's all so smooth and finished so well. I love it when I have to refer back to the build log to see what isn't originally part of the case. :)




My only dislike with it is that I can see the blue in the front vent holes, especially on that first pic. Extremely minor detail, though.

Yea I drilled those last and it would take over an hour to take the screen/d-pad/buttons/etc out to paint it again. So........ I think it'll stay that way :)

Completely understandable. I doubt I'd have noticed if I was playing it. lol
