I have been a lurker on this site for years and have done a couple cases myself but never posted them. I have started on a new project today with my roommate. We are both huge fans of Dead Space so we thought we would make an xbox plus some controllers to match our favorite game!

This is my first post so bare with me. we are also open to suggestions on anything so please speak your mind here.






Drawn up windows.

I used a rotozip tool for my dremel on this one. In the past I have used cutting disks but I dont think I will be doing that any more seeing that this was by far the best method I have used.
Heres the rough cut.

Now a little sanding.

Buy one of these (buffing wheel) if you haven't already they are amassing (as you can see I am admiring @Ozzylow 's work).

After the wheel the edges are looking mighty fine! now just to do some tune up with some files and I should be good to go to start sanding and priming.

After all that work I need some grapefruit.

More to come I'm just waiting on some supplies to come in tomorrow.
Since we are going with a Dead Space theme what are your color suggestions on paint? What kind should we get? I've always gone with a car grade but I'm open to suggestions.

I'm looking into maybe making a base for it. As I've been inspired by @ozzylow 's base of rock for his Boarderlands 2 case he is working on.

Updates soon to come!

nice clean cuts smile.gif

for the colours maby you can go blue/black on one side and red(blood)/black/blue on the other or something.? because when you think about it. the whole game is about bloody messy things and the iconic helmet with blue glow biggrin.gif
