Holey crap I just had a nerdgasm that is some totally ridiculous artwork there! Just can't get over some of the truly talented people this forum has on it, I think I shall now bend down and pick my jaw back up off the floor.
I appreciate that

UpDate Time... It has been quite some time since any progress has been made with this Project. Well, that has just changed.
I am very happy to Announce that LAMPTRON has Stepped in and Sponsored 2 very Different, but Very Excellent Controllers.
Sponsored by
Lets have a look at what has been going on with this project now that Lamptron has so Graciously Offered to send 2 Controllers.
I can't thank you Enough.
First up the BOX.. From half way around the World.. China to be exact.. No wonder it looks a little Beat.
Is everything OK?
Hell Yeah!
Lets start with the CW611. Now I have already been using 2 of these controllers in my Electric Orange build and have to say they are both Rock Solid. Absolutely Love this Product.
Enough power to Run a Pump off a Single Channel was the Selling point for me. Build Quality, Styling and Screen Brightness is also excellent with the CW611. I was really excited to hear Lamptron was sending me another for
this project.. Lets have a Look at the CW611.
Excellent!!
Now for their New Product.. The CM615. Lets have a look at the specs of this thing.

Most interesting Feature to me is Remote Network Access. Since Brandywine is a Media/File Server, this feature will be most useful.
Lets have a closer look.
Very Stylish.. Excellent Build Quality..
You may have noticed by now that these do not match. I will restate my original plan for this machine.
This project was all about the Paint. Nothing more. Clearly the build is not meant to be some super gamer as one can
clearly see by the Underwhelming Hardware that i installed already. OK enough about that.
So lets see what i can do with these.
I did play with the Configuration a bit and ended up with the CW611 up Top.
But those Black Bezels have to be Modified Right?
Final Finish
Well, there they are.
Wait a minute, I Forgot one thing...
How about this for a Case Badge..
Thanks to Bladeworks
Lots more to do.. Stay Tuned
