"ROG Carbine" Scratchbuild DCMM 1.place

[CapTen]

Welcome to my next project

 

"ROG Carbine"

 

 

 

 

The carbine is based on the "verc carbine" concept of Aaron de Leon,
a 3D designer (hard surface modeling) already involved in the development of several games such as Star Citizen and Section 8.
When I saw this concept, I realized immediately that I must build it.
I immediately recognized a Pc in the carabiner, so followed also various drawings until I realized where the whole leads.
Many pictures do not exist of this concept but since I adjust the model to a PC I had to ample improvise anyway

.

The goal is to combine the model with modern hardware without changing the appearance.

As some may already know I have the same at the German Casemodding championship
the first place occupies even though the work is not even completely completed.
So here is the pre-release.
I think it will still be exciting and I hope you like the worklog.

Looks awesome, but a Pentium? Really?

[CapTen]

Thank you and yes a Pentium, sorry at the Moment are all my cpus in other Projects

[CapTen]

So here is the first update:
I have tried to document all the work but when looking at the photos I see many details that were not properly photographed.but I hope the photos speak for themselves.
At the moment I have 260 pictures 

 

First a board cut in the shape of the weapon

 

then the essay above and below the middle barrel

 

 

now two ridges around the barrel to its extent to broaden.
The groove is sawn with the circular saw to install all cables of the LEDs later

 

now the first details

 

and then two strips for the sides of the barrel

 

 

 

Now I broadened the upper and lower barrel by another 5mm. The upper barrel I saw but later completely and build it from Plexiglas

 

Now the first essays for the estuary. A groove is set with the top cutter

 

and then sawn in the correct length

 

and sandet in shape

 

Now two MDF boards glued together

 

and with the grooving cutter the width of the lower barrel milled out. Then cut into shape and ground.

 

Now the next parts for this area

 

 

 

 

Now the first aluminum parts

 

Here the handle on the lower barrel is now provided with long holes and then bent

 

 

And here are the covers of the essays from the barrel

 

 

This was already the first update, in the next I start with the upper barral and thus the first Plexiglas work 

[MrRavens]

My reaction: "What does this mech have to do with anything?"

 

*scrolls down*

 

"Oh...well god damn." (O_O  )

[TheCamba]

Looks awesome!

[CapTen]

Thx guys!

 

 

Time for the next update.
This time it went to the upper barrel, a lot of Plexiglas was cut, bent and glued with Acrifix.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and the last two parts of the mouth

Now the round elements for the reservoir

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If ask is please just ask;)
Next time it goes with the AGB holders and it goes to the glass parts in the course which are later illuminated.

[CapTen]

This time a bit later but a slightly bigger update.

I spare you this time with my technical English, it probably does not make any sense anyway






















































































Then, until next update :-D

[Fanus1]

Damn! I'm building my first ever computer tomorrow and is confident I won't fuck it up (I hope)

This is next level! My low-mid range build will feel rather insignificant in comparison lmao.

Keep up the great work!

 

[CapTen]

Thanks !

I wish you good luck.

Continue to the beat.

 

Next, the searcher front of the magazine

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 :-D

 

 

 

 

More rings made of MDF

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The carrier is made of POM

 

 

then the Mainboard Tray.
2mm Alu

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Okay 
Until next time :-D

[CapTen]

Go on,
this time unfortunately no particularly good series of photos
but the little things are just the project to do what it is.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the MB Tray

 

 

 

glued with Sikaflex chassis glue

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and now it went to the magazine, the cover for the radiator and the power supply

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So what is missing now?
The handle and
the upper cover of the carabiner.
Okay next time is about the top cover..

[CapTen]

Hi,
it's time again, my weekly update.

 

At some point it had to be done, the water cooler on the VGA mount

 

 

then I needed a bracket for the magazine, 4 x 22mm MDF cubes

 

 

 

 

the mount for the riser cable

 

 

 

 

Monitors can also be connected via an angled HDMI adapter

 

 

 

 

 

now the top Cover
5mm Plexi cut and bend

 

 

glued with Akrifix R192

 

 

more  Plexi in 3mm.

 

 

CPU - side

 

 

VGA - side

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pity with the 25 picture limit in some forums but they were already again.
Then, I hope it was something teaching or not, next time it goes to the construction for the handle and the power supply.

[CapTen]

Hi,

now the handle.
For this I chose Multiplex,

 

 

 

a groove for the cable from the trigger

 

 

 

 

 :mrgreen:

 

 

 

 

now I have made the grip by deep drawing.

 

 

 

 

the trigger

 

 

 

 

 

left side the final shape from the trigger

 

 

 

 

 

more 3mm and 5mm MDF

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The final shape looks good but there is still a lot of details.

More in the next update

 

regards Capten

[CapTen]

Heyho !

 

now i Need extern usb ports

 

 

for the cable

 

 

these alu parts have made me really ready

 

 

 

bevor the paint job i set all holes for the tubes

 

 

Loop complete,

how you can see, you see nothing

 

 

holder for the res

 

 

Here the panel in front of the handle, so you can not look behind the motherboard or the VGA.

Left a copy of the Northbridge cooler, for more symmetry in the rear area.

 

 

the psu area

 

 

more mdf covers

 

 

the holes for the eps cable

 

 

two old cabinet handles are exactly fitting

 

 

these contours I created with key files

 

 

The cable protection hoses are fixed everywhere with single-ear clamps and some aluminum has been adapted as veneer.

 

 

for the other side two 8mm MDF stripes

 

 

Power for the psu

 

 

only now have I glued the handle to the gun

 

 

an 8mm dowel for the good conscience

 

How do you get a bent wire straight again?

 

 

1. Cut the required length

 

 

2.Fold the ends to better grasp them

 

 

3. Screw the other end into a vice.
Rule of thumb: turn the wire around its own axis per meter 6-8 times.

 

 

 

 

Next comes the paint and the electrics

 

Thank you for reading or viewing pictures.
Until next time!

[KrMaH]

holy crap! subbed!
damn, this is rad!

[CapTen]

 thx thx

 

Hi,

 

sorry for being to late but I was a little bit sick.

 

As promised the paint Job.

To get rid of the wood grain I painted it twice with this one.

Call it Plastic seal but it's like clear coat.

 

 

the colors used

 

over 100 parts

 

 

 

I have coated these parts with textured paint

 

 

Now all individually painted parts were joined together with chassis glue (Sikaflex)
 

 the electrical part
 

 

 

 3mm LED White konkav

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

small details I pushed out

 

 

 

two inlays of satined Plexiglas, for Standby and HDD Led

 

 

All openings I have deposited with foam rubber

 

 

the 8Pin EPS cable

 

 

 

 

 

then the PW SW buttons and the standby and HDD LEDs

 

 

and here the position of the buttons

 

 

thats the status before the DCMM,after that I changed some little things.

But the last ones work next time.

 

 

[KrMaH]

another holy crap!
I... I need to change my pants now...

[CapTen]

Hahahaha yeah

Thank you

[marksmanguy]

Very well done man!!

 

[CapTen]

Hello,

thx guys

 

 

Now the last update

 

We remember, the stat at Gamescom

 

 

 

but there were still little things in which I just did not know how to implement them

1.right, the ornaments behind the mouth
2.middle, the yellow clips on the barrel and
3.left, the clips on the reservoir

 

 

first 2.

i cut out yellow acrylic but after remove the foil it looks like a Little bit green

 

 

so i must paint it in sulfur yellow

 

 

 I've cut narrow strips off an aluminum U-profile

 

 

 

I made a few more and took the most beautiful ones

 

 

that looks good

 

 

now  3.
the Clips from res. I test a liitle bit with wood but in aluminum it Looks better.

 

 

 

 :-P

 

 

 

 

Now I have glued the clips with silicones on the barrel

 

 

 

 

than  1.

 

 

 

as you can see on the last picture,the textured paint has no good Quality.

I must paint it again

 

 

so now the last, left the silver door handles on the Vision Display had to be made of 1mm Alu
and on the right the frame of the handle I have painted in silver

 

 

 

So that's it, I can carve a notch more on the door frame again: mrgreen:
For the sake of clarity, all final images then in a separate post,
probably also this week.

 

Thank you for looking!
Greetings CapTen

[CapTen]

And here they are, all the final pictures.
Have fun!
