[Lord Athelstan PC]
When conceptualizing was taking place there was new hype about Cyberpunk 2077 because of the tie-in anime that was released. The vaporwave/future aesthetic was on the mind and we try to capitalize on that social interest. At the time, Fractal had just released the Pop cases and with our great business relationship with them we were able to get a case pretty quickly. We wanted to use some vaporwave aesthetics because we felt there was a lot of overlap between vaporwave and the cyberpunk design. I believe the katakana on the glass, the framework city scape on the removable front panel, and the neon light-esque fans are just enough to convey the overall aesthetic while also not overdoing it.

[Lord Athelstan PC]
Lord Aethelstan was the first VTuber to request a design that didn’t feature their model—which was a refreshing shift after doing nearly 14 character-heavy cases in a row. For this case, we focused on creating something that could stand on its own, with only a subtle nod to his brand: a wolf sigil on the side panel. The result felt unique, timeless, and honestly one of the stronger designs in the VTuber series.

[White Wolf Edition]
[tokyo dream]
LordAethelstan: WHite Wolf Edition was a follow-up colorway we released on Valentine’s Day. This version reimagined the original design in white, offering a brighter alternative for fans who wanted a lighter take on the Aethel PC while keeping the original design’s clean and minimal style intact.

[Dexerto Article]
[tokyo dream]
The day after we launched the White Wolf Edition of the Lord Aethelstan collaboration, Dexerto wrote an article calling attention to the new colorway launch as well as the collaboration in general. This felt good as sometimes it feels like the work you do only exist in a bubble.
