Battlestar Galactica Case Mod

The ultimate contender in themed case mods.

Once in a while there is a television series produced that is worthy of thousands of people's attention, gripping them each week with tense expectation as to what will happen next. Once in an even longer while, a high-quality mod will come around based on this show - and that's what you're looking at today.

Based on a Cooler Master Stacker case, Brian Carter used laser cutting, plastic moulding and shaping, styrofoam, and even LCD screens to create this impeccably themed mod. We absolutely love the Airlock on the side panel (essentially a garage/style door turned on it's side, to hide a perspex window that gives a great view of the innards inside), and the slimline DVD drive mounted on the front of the case - until you see it in action you'd never guess it was there!

Not only has Brian done a masterful mod on the case, but a keyboard and monitor have also been themed. Check out many pics-in-progress, as well as final pics, system specs, and a video of the case working!

Linky!

Late? Nope.

Forums and the site are not one and the same ;)

Plus this way a lot more people get to see it, it's definitely worth showing :)

Awesome.

If there's a Battlestar then there needs to be a Cylon Base Star
