It's a very very impressive scratch design and build granted.
But is it a 'mod' ? ... to me a case mod is something that exists and has been modified to customise it.

Seems like their forums are down at the moment.

Well it worked for a moment then broke again.
From what I saw, that was amazing! Must have taken days to print that.

Is that the shark case? It's weird. Call me a stickler, but I like my computers to look like computers to some degree. Sharks and X-Wings and cars and spaceships and castles with computer hardware inside kinda irk me a little, especially when you can't see the components, and super-especially when they're entered into case modding competitions.
There's a guy on bit-tech who's regularly scoring highly and winning the Mod Of The Month competitions called Abbas the Cre8or, and has numerous international wins in the short time he's been active. His work is absolutely stunning...if he was producing scale models and scenery for Warhammer games. Have a look at Spartacus, Mod Of The Arena and Quasar. Is there any point in them being computers?
Or am I just missing the point?

I think you just need to be radically different to stand out and win anything.

821hrs of printing, according to him.
It only worked for me briefly as well. Never got to the second page... Awesome work though.
Be radically different with your cases for sure, but to me a prop from Game Of Thrones or Star Wars does not count. Have a look at the work Alex Banks does with bit-tech these days. His scratch built cases are stunning (especially the Royal Trident and Aquaceras). Explore Modding's current project ONDA is an unusual mod to an already unusual case, and his Sky Three triple stack is mesmerising.
These projects say more to me about talent in designing and modding cases than fully concealing a system inside some totally unrelated form.
Indeed. It's a custom scratch built case, not a mod.
