I was originally going to go with a TMNT (Donatello) theme and then drifted towards a Joker theme. But after decided it was overdone and went with the Riddler. I'm a big Batman fan and those are my two favorite characters. I wanted something different, that also brought some of my personalty to the build. I love riddles and rhymes and though it worked out quite well.

there are many moments where building a computer can be a riddle, especially a hackintosh, so i find it fitting  :D

Oh, I love your attention to detail. I can't talk about it with one of my techie friends, because when I start, he look at me like I am lunatic :D

Every little detail counts and makes all the difference.

I once had a budget..........and then I tossed it away. xD

Now it's to the point where all I want to do is make what I have in my mind a reality; No matter the cost.

If I had gone with my original plan I would have already been done with it two months ago. But no, twas not enough! I must press on!

Killer Build

 

Thanks, I appreciate the comments. :)

I'm getting the odds and ends right now but with the holiday coming up it's squeezing my wallet pretty hard, especially since I have a 6yr old expecting Santa lol.

But still trucking along trying to keep a good pace with the purchases. Come January I should be able to buy the rest of the big stuff and some extras, fluids and the dyes.

Hope everyone is having a good holiday! :)

I wanted to share some pics with you guys.

I just recently received the rest of my custom anodized screws and thought I'd show you how they looked in the reservoir mounting brackets.

 

 

-Here are all my anodized screws, there will be a lot of detail in this build. :D This will help the build pop and help to even out the green and purple within my build.

-Here's a pic with one of the anodized screws and one of the screws that came with the mounting bracket.

-In this pic it shows both the anodized screws in and how it will look. Makes a big difference, and goes to show how every little detail counts. ^-^

I have said that and I am gonna say that again... I love the attention to detail :) The screws looks sexy :)

 

And it makes me happy, that I am not the only crazy person who thinks about absurd details :D

Those screws are awesom! 

Very nice build. I've build a 750D in the same colors for my girlfriend right now. 

 

Where did you buy the hardware that you had anodized? I'd love to do that for my girls build too.

Update 16:

 

Look what just came in the mail this morning! :D

 

Gonna do some artsy fartsy stuff today xD

Waiting on this beauty since late October, was torture, but since I wanted the new version (Silhouette Cameo 2 Touch) with the touch screen I had to wait for it :(

BUT NOW it's finally here!

 

So of course here are some pictures for you all, and I will be working on some projects and will be adding some pics later on today. I will be changing the stickers on my fans to black with a green question mark, and also the yellow on the MSI Mpower board will be green. I have tons of plans for this machine. :)

 

Riddle me this...

Forgive me, I need to go and change my boxers. 

What do they know of England, who only England know?
