sorry for the big pics but it's like 2 in the morning and im too lazy to resize . . ..lol
lets say it helps bring out the detail. .. ..and i always use 1600x1200 res on my comp

Looks oddly familiar

Make sure you take plenty of pics along the way so we can get somewhat of a how-to together on this. Good luck!

 

[LinuxRacr]

Yeah, for some reason, it looks familiar...(hmm) Keep up posted on your progress! I'm sure it will be another kick-ass Protege production!! (thumb)

Resize those suckers--geez...

Laziness is no excuse!

 

[ELEmental59437]

sxates, you have an email. nice to see another protege in dallas..



traitorhound, cant wait to see it finished

 

[traitorhound]

woo-hoo. . ..it's almost done
all that is left to do is rubbing compound on the paint to make it smoother and then maybe a coat of clear or two. . . ..but it looks awesome. . ill get pics tomorow

 

[Dexter]

thats a Xenarc, correct?

im soooooooooooo going to do this guys! i just need to get some $$ for the screen
i dont care if you guys saying im copying, its NICE as hell! (thumb)

more step by step pics!!!! good luck!!!

 

[traitorhound]

it's not exactly xenarc, but it's from the same company that makes both xenarc and gain so the screen itself is the same exact one that xenarc and gain sell just that this one doesnt' have the branding

nice pics dude. keep us posted! dont worry i keep my screen 1152 x 864. good to have big detailed pics - chris

 

[IcedMp5]

looks good so far...this is something i'd like to do in the future...hopefully there will be plenty of "How-To" info when i'm ready!

 

[traitorhound]
