Sweet mod man, I was looking through some old cases at work and I saw an old g4 and I wanted to see what some people did for inspiration. Awesome mod bro.
I'm the proud owner of a PowerMac G4 from 1999 and I'm thinking about modding it too!
One little question: What kind of paint did you use? And what kind of colour? Totally white and black? Did you sand it before you painted it? (This might be why the paint is 'cracked' a bit ?)
@uhudmen It is now called the G4 Dark Lightning Storm Trooper & there is a reason for that. but im gonna hold off untill i do the Upgraded vid to show it off.
@uhudmen Glad to know you like, it, as it happens it's been over 2years now since it did it & ive still got it even today plus it has been heavily upgraded with added extras and runs great. (",)
@marcoscerutti Thanks, nice to know, you like it, BTW ive still got it, wud you believe it's been over 2years since i did the mac mod, but it's not as fresh as it looked back then, lol. (",)
Nice job Babzstar. So many people just *think* about ideas, but the character that it takes to get out try... that's what makes the world a nicer place. Inspirational. I can see if you keep up your creative spirit you'll go far.
BTW - I just found a source for $9 (USD) wifi cards on ebay (from china) that seem to work on the quicksilver natively (under 10.5.6) just fine! Let me know if you're interested and I'll find the link.
@crouchingtiger1000@crouchingtiger1000 it took alot of patience & hard graft to get it done. Plus using aerosol cans was abit tricky, as it was my first time doing this kind of mod to a mac.
buy nice to know your interested.
also pls dont forget to subscribe, as im trying to buildup my subscribers to over 200, so spread the word & subscribe. Thanks
It's interesting, I'll give you that. But lose the black stripes and the bolt. Then, give it a high gloss coat and you've got the first Storm-trooper Mac.
nice, i suggested looking into "1582-spidermac" at macmod b/c i thought it was the best mod i'd seen, i'm sure you'll be doing stuff like that in no time, keep it up!
Do an Ibook Next. :)
