Thermaltake CaseMOD Invitational Season 1 2023 - MPC

[MPC]

Hello everyone, are you ready for a new adventure ?

 

Get on the boat with me. Let's go !

 

[MPC]

Ok ok, now let's see the fantastic CTE C750 Air Black 

 

[MPC]

Oh yeah yeah could not miss the brand new Toughpower GF A3 1200W power supply with beautiful sleeve cables, of course always in combination of blue and red color...who knows why 

 

[MPC]

And here is also the beautiful Inno3D iCHILL X3 RTX4060Ti video card

 ASRock Z790 PG Riptide present in the project

I have an intruder in the lab taking possession of every tool and saying the C750 will be his new home 

 

 

[MPC]

The intruder in my workshop named Mario said he wants the place on the front of the cabinet and that the top and back panel will have to be completely redone.

I first start working with the old tools of the trade (pen and paper) and then move on to drawing on software and finally processing on laser cutting 

 

[MPC]

 It's official, Mario has took possession of the front of the cabinet and to do so he also managed to break the three-dimensional wall

Now we give a bit of liveliness and three-dimensionality to the top and back panels going to work plexiglass panels with different colors typical of Super Mario Bros.

From the initial drawing, I start to place all the various pieces of laser cut colored plexiglass.

We remove the veils to the top and back panels presenting them in their complete charm !

Resin 3D Printing Phase - Part One

 

This manufacturing process with the subsequent hand painting phase began when I received the invitation to this competition even if I am publishing it now.

 

 

[MPC]

Resin 3D Printing Phase - Part Two

 

This is the 3D printing turn of Mario, Luigi and more

 

[MPC]

Resin 3D Printing Phase - Part Three

 

We see the resin-printed 3D pieces after drying with UV rays.

 

[MPC]

Now begins the painting phase of each individual piece by hand with the brush.

 

This phase of work began immediately after the 3D printing of the various pieces and immediately after receiving the invitation to the competition because it was a very long process.

This is so awesome. I love the coins along the piping, and the Goombas and Piranha Plant. I admire your tenacity in sanding and painting all of those prints!
