Hey, i seem to be getting no-where using my awesome paint skills :rolleyes:

Ah thank you nightwish, absolutely perfect, just what i was looking for

you will still need some kind of photo editing software to create the textures.

can you still get a 30 day trial of photoshop? if not there are a few free photo editing programs out there to use.

IMAGE HEAVY ....WIDE LOAD.....BIG THINGS AHEAD...ETC ETC

This is something i just put together thanks to the suggestion of nightwish

Opinions welcome, I'm trying to go with a white/red/gold theme , ala The Flash. Not used to using sketchup but i have lots of sketches that i would like to upload to get some opinions

Those are two images that i really liked, and could find

If you can get the colours right that could come out looking pretty immense. The panel design looks really good, can't wait to see the actual build

Why the 3 hole bracket on the top if your 120.3 is in the bottom?

Nico_Joey · 27 Mar 2008 at 22:34

Eh

? Its just there for scale really, to see what a 120.3 would look like in that position
