Stand Out Contest

intro: we have a little bit chat with a few of AM members, and we kind of want to come up with our own independent competition.

objective: - as an intuition to level up our skill in modding
- to promote a healthy competition between members to become THE BEST modder in AM
- and most of all, for the fun and joy in modding.

Rules: there aren't much rules in this competition, BUT... we must all agree to mod on the same console. For this current competition, Rodent and I have agree on doing it on a CONTROLLER (PS3 OR XBOX360).

Date start : AUGUST 13,2011 (entrants may join after the start date as long as they submit a picture of the stock controller
Date ends :OCTOBER 8th,2011 (Vote end date October 15th POLL 1 vote per member)
winner: will be decided by poll

Prize: for the moment there are no prize. we will ask for the art section to make a special siggy. so the winner of this competition will have the honor to wear the siggy until the next winner is crowned.

are you ready to stand out between the rest?
tell me if you want to join in and i will add you to the list below.

1st entry:
[spoiler]Here's my starting point. Please note this controller is for a client , I was just given free artistic reign . I had the controller modded before , it has a 4 mode RF installed. I will be updating that to an 8 mode with a programmable setting. I will be doing a bunch of clear mods , including clear sticks and dpad w gears logo molded inside and smaller gears logo's inside the buttons. Everything will be back lit red and I will be doing a led swap and dual color for 3/4 players and RF. The images in the picutre show the analog and buttons graffix.

[/spoiler]
2nd entry:
[spoiler]This is my second entry into the standout. This one I will be doing for my daughter Olivia. (Love you my lil modder)This has been a plan of mine for some time and unfortunatley I have been busy with other stuff . Well my daughters birthday is in early sept and I figured I should make her a new controller for her birthday.
I will be doing a PS3 controller in a SNES controller shell. I will be using the analog stick instead of the dpad to be able to still have most kids games able to be played. I will be placing purple and pink leds and back lighting some clear PS3 buttons (luckily fit right in the SNES only cut of extra tabs.)
Also I will be doing a disney princess theme for the graffix.

[/spoiler]

8: crazy-modder

9: FOOKz™
[spoiler]OK so here is a controller a friend gave me and hes giving me $30 to do whatever i want to it. The plan is to cut slits into the case and figure out how to put some kind of epoxy in there to make transparent slits for LEDs to shine through. The controller already has rapidfire in it so there is no worry. Then when im done with all of that I will sand the paint down a bit and clear coat it so its shiny and evenly coated.

If i have any better ideas for the lights like rumble-reactive i might try it but for now its going to be on/off with the controller.

[/spoiler]
10: shadowdawg101
[spoiler]Just to start off i would like to say, My bad because i didn't realize this had started yet as i was on holiday.

Anywho i've got a controller, and ill upload pics when i unpack. Still no parts though....

7th Aug
so got my controller, lol brand new and never used. This is also my first time ive delved into xbox as im mostly a sony modder.

about half an hour after this picture was taken my mind started wondering what lurked inside so i opened and fully dissasembled it ready for modding, and don't test my pritty pink towel...

Oh i've realized i havent mentioned what im doing here. Well its nothing special but im painting it to match my xbox, which i've also never played on. Aha before you ask, as soon as it was swapped for a packed of cookies i started work on it and im still half way though doing it. Its a watercooed and cookie monster themed. I've also taken plenty of pictures during its creation so when im done i'll post them all. All work has ground to a stop atm because my boss thinks shes absolutly hilarious not paying me straight away this month so i've only got £1.20 rolling around in my bank account for all the bankers to laugh at. Can't think of anything else to tell you but watch this space it may surprise analy rape you. ttfn

[/spoiler]
11: Mogler
[spoiler]Alright.. so im going to be a boss and put a wiimote inside an xbox 360 case.

I dont think this is the xbox 360 case i will be using ill probably be using a white case when i do the mod sense most of my tools are back in Michigan.

[/spoiler]
12: gunner7553
[spoiler]Well here is my entry. A PS3 controller mod that has never been done before
I have no idea what to call this mod.

[/spoiler]

13: CreativeMindMedias

14: drummerdude
[spoiler]Heres the controller that i will be modding.

Plans: I will be putting in leds and bullet buttons(if i can find some). im going to atempt to do an anarchy theme, so i will atempt to paint an anarchy symbol on the controller. I have a general idea of what i want, but will prolly be adding more things as well.
[/spoiler]
15: magic_man185
[spoiler]I will be using a CG2 white oem Xbox 360 wireless controller. I will be installing a custom programmable rapid fire written by me, and I may do some LED lighting or shell painting, I haven't quite decided on that yet. (Sorry for the poor quality pictures, the camera didn't work and I had to use my phone. I will reupload some better pictures when I can.)

[/spoiler]

16: jago171
[spoiler]Hey all,

For this mod I plan to use my stock Blue PS3 controller I brought a wile ago not yet opened.
I hope to be adding blue smd's inside behind the face buttons.
Going to try something a bit different, I think might be useful. Not sure if it has already been done it involves a micro SD Card or Pro Duo.

Here is my Stock photo:

[/spoiler]

PLEASE NOTE, THIS IS NOT A ACIDMODS SPONSORED EVENT. MANAGMENT TAKES NO RESPONCABILITY FOR ITS OUTCOME. THERE WILL BE AN OFFICIAL SUMMER/FALL MOD OFF ONCE OUR FEARLESS LEADER IS HOME AND SETTLED.

never, ever, ever edit an admin tag

here are the ps3 that i will use for the mods

just receive a pm from matt regarding on when the mod-off will start.
his reply?

"it wont be until October."

this is a good mini event before mod-off. after all the objective are to horn our skills.

1TONpete · « **Reply #2 on:** July 27, 2011, 08:40:54 PM »

Maybe... If I get time. I have a Ps3 to use to show off the new graffix thing I'm doing.
Some of you got a sort preview of the Raiden smoked cover.

crashmasher · « **Reply #3 on:** July 27, 2011, 10:22:41 PM »

sounds fun, ill just have to find a ps3 with low fw and money to do it

Rodent · « **Reply #4 on:** July 28, 2011, 01:19:20 AM »

I was hoping to see more then 4 people, just to get the more people interested in modding the ps3.

The reason being there isnt many mods out there and I believe this would get more people interested in the PS3 modding .

magic_man185 · « **Reply #5 on:** July 28, 2011, 01:18:21 PM »

(I might be biased by the fact that I can afford to do a controller, lol). If we can make it PS3 or 360 controller (or at least 360) I might try my hand at painting a controller, and it might give me some incentive to finish my code to include with the mod.

snowcolt17 · « **Reply #6 on:** July 28, 2011, 03:33:16 PM »

I may join in on that. Even though I will lose

toadzilla · « **Reply #7 on:** July 28, 2011, 04:17:07 PM »

hyper999 · « **Reply #8 on:** July 28, 2011, 04:54:20 PM »

Also maybe instead of the sig as a prize we could get someone to do a title thingy like the staff ones (eg my rnd one below) saying like champion summer 2011 or something

snowcolt17 · « **Reply #9 on:** July 28, 2011, 04:56:48 PM »

Do we want to make it anonymous (not you Anonamous, lol) or can should we just post under our current accounts? I for one would not vote for a person, I would vote for whatever mods the best, but if you all think it needs to be anonymous I am fine with that.

toadzilla · « **Reply #21 on:** July 29, 2011, 06:34:35 AM »

I'm in then if its any controller now I need to find parts and figure my dea fully out

Rodent · « **Reply #22 on:** July 29, 2011, 06:45:52 AM »

1TONpete · « **Reply #26 on:** July 29, 2011, 04:47:55 PM »

I am ready to start. Are we doing this anonymous? How do we submit our pics etc... here? or on a dedicated thread?

Rodent · « **Reply #27 on:** July 30, 2011, 04:21:49 AM »

I have sent wetfusion a PM so hopefully we agreed on everything, and he should post something soon start and end dates this is pretty much an all out mod to bring the best talents foward and hopefully others will want to join in also. I hope to see some really good results come from this and some really nice work from our members

hyper999 · « **Reply #28 on:** July 30, 2011, 09:36:02 AM »

also, I'm not home till a week on tuesday, so I would much appreciate it if the start date wasn't before that :P

Rodent · « **Reply #29 on:** July 30, 2011, 08:00:42 PM »
