Posted April 5, 2015 Hi everyone here I'm off to starting my first mod, all of my builds have been scratch build so let's see how this one goes. I know most of us are fans of Assassin's Creed, so I decided to follow that theme. First of all I must thank my sponsors for sponsoring this build. (Please click on the image to visit their official page) Avexir Avexir is providing the Avexir Blitz 1.1 Gaming Red Red LED memory modules for the build. Thank You Very Much Avexir Bitfenix Bitfenix is providing the Pandora Window edition and Spectre Pro LED Red Fans for the build. Thank You Very Much Bitfenix EKWB EKWB is providing me with an EK-KIT L240 to water cool this build. Thank You Very Much EKWB Renders and build pics coming up soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted April 5, 2015 Author Hi guys, I'm back with the render images, these will change a little bit towards the end of the build and i might add some more features, but this would be the general concept, i'm not going to modify the metal parts, except making room on top for 2 fans. This case is one of the most elegant cases that i've seen and i dun want it to loose that touch. I will not be focusing too much on having expensive components in the build so this would be a closed loop build with mid range specs, it's the look that i want to change to give it an assassin's creed theme.

Posted April 12, 2015 Author So here we go with the first Update,Update 1: So I took apart the Pandora as I wanted some of the internal parts to be white.

So that's all for this update guys. Till next time. Happy modding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted April 22, 2015 Author Hi Guys, small update today. Update 2: Took apart the Bitfenix Spectre Pro Red LED fans to paint the outer frame white. It perfectly matches with the build when painted white. Red and White, perfect match. Now I have some free time, so I will keep updating more frequently.

Posted April 22, 2015 What's the easiest way to take those out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted April 22, 2015 Author LED ones is quite hard. remove the soldered cabled from LEDs, use a flat screw driver to push the locks one by one. the internal unit is made to go through the external frame. and most of the time, they are both glued together from one place. and LEDs are glued as well, so it's hard to change LED cols if u wanna change it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 1, 2015 Author Update 3: Hi everyone, I'm back with a new update. I designed a background design for the side panels, they looked quite empty just with the red designs, so I decided to add a background of Floral designs just like in AC. Initially I wanted to get it done in dark grey, but the sticker shop didn't have that sticker at that time. so I decided why not go with gold. You can see some test laser cuts as well in the following pics This is the 3x3 feet sticker cut I got When the non-windowed panel is complete it looks like this So here's the two panel, with sticker and without sticker Window panel before and after It's wasn't easy to take the main parts of the sticker out as the lines were as thin as 1mm, it took a long time to do this I'll be back soon with a new update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 31, 2015 Author Hi Guys, Today is a small update on the laser cut products, Cut the top designs and side designs. After everything I realized that " 'S " wan't there, then i asked my friend to do that part on it. I was in two minds whether to paint the acrylic or not because it looked so beautiful even without paint. I'll update the painted ones in few days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 2, 2015 I can't wait to see the finished product, it looks amazing so far. “I like being alone. I have control over my own shit.

Posted June 3, 2015 Author Hi Guys, Back with a small update, So for the build I wanted to have the assassin's hidden blade on the front and the flintlock gun on the non windowed side panel at the centre of a circular red acrylic gear wheel looking thing. I used both flintlock gun as well as the acrylic design that looks like a gear to resemble industrial age, where the newer versions of assassin's creed take place. I made clay moulds for the shapes I wanted for the gun and blade. I did not make a shape first and mould it as this would make it easy for me to add designs to the parts I made a similar moulds for the gun barrel and other parts of the gun. after using resin to make the pieces and with a little clean up with the dremel they look like this. The wood part of the gun I cut with a Jigsaw and used dremel to carve the shape, then used sandpaper to make it smooth And after airbrushing this is how the parts looks. for the wood part I used Burmese Teek colour and a clear coat. Hope you like the build so far. This is my third mod and best among the three I guess. I'll be back with more updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 13, 2015 Author First of all thank you very much for the nomination as one of the MOTM nominees, it's great honour. It's been one week since I last updated, was finishing up on the build so that I can update faster. So this is where it get's interesting, now it's time to add LEDs to the build, I want it to look extremely good in the dark as well, so here we go with how i did it. I made 4 standouts to hold the LEDs that light up the Assassin's Creed Logo using lathe, and made few other pieces to use as connectors to make the connection to side panels To make sure there are no visible cables on the build I used transformer coil to connect the LEDs, this was very hard coz the LEDs were about 3mm and soldering them to hair like coils were next to impossible, and just side panels have 64 LEDs built into the designs. Hope you guys like it's look Connectors and Standouts are like this So with these i can easily remove side panel without disconnecting any cables, just how it's supposed to be opened. Here are the Standouts Here you can see the scale with a pen For all these I used 64 leds and 20 resistors i took out from LED strips Soldering these was the hardest part as i mentioned to your before Then I went on and made holes in the acrylic pieces to glue in the LEDs Testing out the EK logo Lighting Bitfenix Assassin Logo Sadly Avexir logo was too small to fit in the LEDs. it was hard to fit the LEDs on the top right design as well as all the parts were extremely thin So this is how the build looks with everything complete except internal parts On the next update I will show you how I did the top panel lighting. Till then have a great weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted June 17, 2015 Author Hi Guys, Back with another update, My final exams are coming up, so i have to finish the build log within this month and concentrate on studies, I'll get back to a new build after August So this update is about the top panel and the mysterious parcel I got from mail. I decided instead of replacing the top panel with a fixed panel, it would be better to place the acrylic design over the top mesh, but there was one problem... The evil hex design blocking all of my light and ruining the designs of the acrylic so i went on and took it apart piece by piece(very dramatic yeah ) and it was just as I wanted, the depth of the frame was 5mm, perfect for my LED fitting Sooooo Now the Lights are much visible Then I glued on the acrylic designs to the top with Epoxy and Glued LEDs around the frame as well. I used a similar contact system that I showed in the last episode to make the top panel easily removable In the mean time I received a call from the postal office saying I got a parcel :rolleyes: hmm what might that be..... Oh wait it's from Taiwan..... I should mention about the packing first, oh boy it was packed with several layers of bubble wrap to make sure the things inside can sleep safe and sound. So what was inside?????? OFC they were the sexy AVEXIR Blitz 1.1 Gaming Red 16GB kit ... and The box they were really looked like a gift box, here are some nice pics of em. In the next update (21/06) I will open the other mystery box and we will focus on the internal mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
