Default "Ode to Hardcoreware"

Well march break is approaching and I'm planning on modding the ugly little case pictured below, into an "Ode to Hardcoreware". Updates should start flowing in on Monday.

*EDIT: see article for pics etc... http://www.hardcoreware.net/reviews/review-162-1.htm *

hehe... there's a Dreamcast lurking in the cabinet right below the case. It was sooo cheap a year ago, I couldn't help but buy it.

That's a pretty ugly front indeed. I look forward to seeing what magic you can work

I'm not overly pleased with the holes in the sides.... I might have to up and make a side outta sheet metal, so I can get a cooler looking window.

AI---Adobe Illustrator
EPS--Encapsulated Post Script.

Art must be in a vector format in order for me to reproduce it as a applique. There are some limitations, but I can do pretty much anything that can be created in vector format.
