Default KSIMPS LEGO Case

What should I call it? I've just begun, using Lego Digital Designer. I need a better GPU... This is going to be a solid black case, generic, but built like a rock. I've attached the work file, and some pics below. Forgive me, this is just the basic shape, and I will be making fan holes, and easy open access.

Colors will be decals. Including OCN, Lego, XOXIDE, Internal parts brands, ETC. And of course my own logo.


I'm done for the day, I will continue later.

I personally think it would be better with some logos being an integral part of the case rather than a decal It would make it look more like a designed feature than an afterthought. I think that by using plates rather than bricks for logos they would turn out quite nicely' and you could even have a different scheme on the inside. I would also have some windows to show off the hardware and include some Lego lighting as well (both for case lighting and for the power/HDD LEDs); you could even use the Lego touch sensors for the case power/reset switches.


just M2C
