Posted February 22, 2014 I thought I would share one of my past projects. Enjoy!This is a Scorpion Designs By Torment LM The mod Arc Insane Toxic Hey guys, I will now present my latest mod. The "Arc Insane Toxic" First i would like to thank my sponsors http://www.icemodz.com/For sponsoring Modding Material in top quality:rock: http://aquatuning.de/index.php sponsors watercooling parts for me and i really appreciate it http://fractal-design.com/ for sponsoring the wonderful case Fractal Design Arc Midi http://www.komplett.dk Awesome service http://www.noctua.at sponsoring awesome fans My purpose for doing this mod This time I will be doing the build for my own purpose. I want a cool looking computer, which would fit in my room. So green was just needed, another thing that I was a little more curious about was the case itself. So I started looking around, after some time I ended up choosing the Fractal Design Arc Midi Tower. As an artist I just had to create something new and exciting. Because when you have created something that you admire you want to test yourself and see if you can make something even more exciting as well as beautiful. I also wanted a cool and quiet pc, so there is a big focus on silence and performance. I will be using high quality components and lots of eye candy for my viewers and myself. I hope you will enjoy your stay and I will try my utmost to keep a good flow in this thread. What am I going to do? I’m going to mod almost the entire case, it will be having a slick theme with green and black colors, there is going to be a unique side window, which will be formed like two squares that combine at the bottom. I am going to be setting up some new fan grills that will be custom made. I will be trying my best to “hide” the PSU Pump and hard disk. Because I think they look ugly, therefore I’m going to create a plate that is going between the PSU and the MOBO. Almost the entire interior will be painted black as the water-cooling is going to be green. There will be a few cathodes and LED lights around the case. The fans is not yet decided but I hope that I can get some special fans from Cougar World, their Dual X green LED fans would fit this project so good but unfortunately their not obtainable in Europe at this moment. Working lab I started the mod a few weeks ago and did not want to make the work log at start because I would not be capable of making this thread flowing. And sadly I’m not a millionaire so I cannot buy anything in 1 day. As well I’m not done with the build yet so there is still work to do. I don’t want to use ugly things (from my point of view) so there is a lot of things to consider. Like fan controller and lots more. Still some things that are unclear but hopefully I will get anything done within a fair amount of time. This week I received my XSPC ram covers. They look so slick, simple and elegant. :naughty::naughty: actually toke me some time to get them in the right place. very picky when it comes to things like this.:worried: Hope the picture quality is okay. (Please note a comment below if you have any suggestions to my way of taking photos really want to learn more about it. I'm actually moving to a new place "my IRL house" so thought of maybe making like a photo room with white bagground and good lighting.) I'm so excited about this update. I've been working all day on this, many hours with hand files. But this is a little update on how far I am in the progress. Decided to make a top cage as shown above in the drawing. Here is a teaser for it. Next update will be bending this guy and the all new front panel. Stay Tuned! hope you like the new turn of events! Okay Time for the showing of my latest part to the build! The !!CAGE!! I'm working on getting the front panel's fine details, in order and making it look as slick as I can. I used a Brake Press machine yeah it gave it some better results. tried with the first i made to bend it myself not the best result. Now for the update! Make the picture big and it will get a lot better. dont know why it resize it when its not too big :wallbash: What do you guys think of this so far? Done with the basement and the plate. Hope you like some photo magic Time for an update! sorry then painting have been delayed we are doing the proto type this weekend, hopefully the paint is done within a week from now otherwise i'm screwed Some pictures of the sleeving. hope you like it! PS: I don't hope that the "amusement" on the picture offends someone, please PM me if it does, ill remove them and take new ones. Progress so far: Ran into some problems, and having the deadline for the 11th okt is stressing Today's work. Come on I can do this! Package today! yay! Leak Testing, Stil need final touches and some part's made, but it have slowly began to look like something. Participating in Denmarks Biggest Lan Party Thanks for watching this project everyone! I will start a new one soon! hope those who followed commented and just everyone who watched what i did though out this project, have had a great time. What to do better next time? *Order *Timeline *Less random and useless pics and comments *More focused on my art And more that will take a little time to find! A question about believe?

Posted February 23, 2014 Awesome build. Very nice looking and well laid out. and its GREEN Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof. As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.
