PAINTING TIME! =] 

[colinreay]

That power and a full loop in a small form factor... and custom painted with modded windows!? Subbed for sure...

[ALXAndy]

Ooo I loves metallic silver !! subbed.

[therawview]

Sorry @ALXAndy silver was the base coat so the plastic and the metal will have the same shiny finish. Stay subbed though =] 

[therawview]

Paint is almost done =]

What process are you using to paint your case?

[therawview]

Thanks @aamirilliyas123 I would like to use it but it is missing one of my sponsors. I have more coming so message me and lets see if we can make another one that has them all in it.

[therawview]

@kkpatel87 Spray paint. Dupli color metal cast red with metal cast ground coat.

[ALXAndy]

So it's some sort of candy?

 

Must say dude, she ain't really speaking to me at the moment. I thought the silver was gorgeous.

[ALXAndy]

Quick lesson in Photoshop. Always stroke anything you put outer glow on. So do your font layer. Rasterize it. Lay a stroke. Go to the layer below and SHIFT CTRL N for a new layer. Then go back to the layer CTRL E to merge it into the empty layer,fixing the stroke in place, stroke it again, repeat.. Always add a couple of strokes before you glow it looks much more professional

And this is the setup that this bad boy will be powering 

[therawview]

@ALXAndy Yeah, it has like a metal finish. the tricky part is getting the same finish on the plastic and the metal. that is why you chrome everything before painting. So yeah, I have another computer coming up for my wife and she was baby blue and silver =] so it will happen.

[Costa]

Really cool speaker stands. 

[therawview]

@Costa Thank you, I made them from parts from Ikea 

[therawview]

So long story short I have moved offices and this project had to take a back seat but now I am back! Evga took forever coming out with there new 99x micro motherboard (july 31). Anyways I have one being shipped and will have more pictures soon. I took the top off to re paint the top black! 

[therawview]

Thank you @BurnerMC

Test fit, and marking where the last 2 wholes are going to go. Also cutting cables. 

[Crowes]

That's probably the bulkiest reservoir I've seen. Attached pump?

[therawview]

@Crowes Yes, that is a d5 pump attached to the bot =] this is a very small form factor case and I do not have a lot of room. I am fitting 3 hard drives on this side, a power supply and cables. I will have 2 ssd in the front of the case to.

Wow where did you get that desk ?

Wow where did you get that desk ?

I'm pretty sure he had built it from Ikea.
