It looks awesome.

It looks BEAUTIFUL, and has a HUGE q3a fan myself, I am super jealous. I stopped playing for a couple years but if I could discipline myself to sit down and write some configs, I could get back to where I was.

Quake logo is painted in, it's not a decal; it's not perfect, but I'm new at this painting thing. The candy metallic effect can't be really seen on the pictures, metallic flakes are too small.

Here are my base specs:

Mobile Athlon 64 3400+ at 2.2Ghz
1Gb OCZ PC3200
Radeon 9600 with custom cooling at 450/450
100GB Fujitsu 5400RPM

Let me know what you think, and what could I have done better! My next project is DELL 9200, in Tangerine Orange Pearl It should be up within a week.

Ok dude, I have a deal for you.

How much would you charge to come paint my eMachines M6811, my Gateway 7422 GX, my 78 Datsun 280Z and my 72 Volkswagen SuperBeetle to match each other with my own custom logo.?

Then you can pose for photos for the auto shows!
