it is done

Copied From Page 8:

My need to sleep has taken a backseat for now, and my need to finish this case and at least get it up and running has prioritized in what could be considered unhealthy. Either way, for your viewing pleasure i present to you.

So as always, it looks so much better in person. The pictures do it some justice but the purple ambience in real life just is not captured by the camera. Also if something appears blue. It is really purple.

I spent some intensely painful time sleeving an adapter. In the end it was worth it.

Pictures!































































Thanks guys, expect to see a window mod to show all this off in the near future. Also will still be some updates for small things i have planned for this guy.
Thanks.

Picked up some white paint today to do some of the grills as a test... figure i'll start small since im awful at painting. Im gona paint them tomorrow i grabbed duplicolor Adhesive promoter and duplicolor truck van suv pure white. As I have read no sanding required for mesh stuff. Just adhesive and color...clear coat if i want, but im gona hold off on that.. Any suggestions welcome, i wont paint until tomorrow. Again all im painting is the front mesh panels and the mesh in front of the big fan on the front.

*Cant find the battery for my camera, will borrow one to take some shots of the mesh panels before and after.

*Found a camera
Here is what ive done so far *only had the case one day haha*

As you can see the back panel is almost finshed being taped off, what is black will be white...the blue will stay black.

The small grills are the inserts for the front that will be white..now i need to figure how to get the big grill out.

Pull underneath and forward on the grill and it will unsnap. Then you just unscrew it from the back.Then take off the 3 screws that holding in the side meshes and you can remove them from their plastic welding with a razor and some slight pushing. I super glued the side mesh back in after i painted them.

Goetic

Yeah, i found that the removal process for the side mesh grills is not as forgiving as some other parts, Definitely will require glue to put back on.
Thanks for the tip.

What color did you paint yours?

cyberg

Hi gloss black interior and Imperial Red accents and meshes. Just started my work log. Got it painted but not fully assembled yet. Waiting on parts and funds. Should have it riveted back together monday.My first case painting but it been fun. Looks better than I could have imagined.
