Tonight i spent several hours working on the sponsors logo's for the front of the case.

However, i noticed that the front panel would be down at shows, so the logo's would not be visible.
So, i've placed on the top/side of the case.

This is no ordinary vinyl.
Each sheet of vinyl was covered with a fine layer of glue, and then 24ct gold leaf layed gently on top.
Once dried, each logo was hand cut to achieve perfection, giving us nice 24ct gold logo's :)

Like this

And here is what they look like :)

On top of this, i made a light stand for the project, while it's at shows or events.

The new Team Group T-FORCE XTREEM RAM has arrived.
With striking looks and a premium feel. This RAM looks like it was designed just for me!

Absolutely stunning work! One of the best builds i have ever seen. Drooling for sure :D

Thank you very much :) it's been an absolute pleasure to work on :)

Why is it not Sunday yet?

That RAM is lovely. Sleek, solid, understated even with the gold.

Awe shucks... maybe i should just post 1 sneaky peak... maybe :p

All fittings are 24ct gold plated
Sponsor logo's are solid hand made 24ct gold.
Whole Case, fans and motherboard has been custom painted with a pearl white and gold effect.
Front of case is engraved and embossed gold.
Side window is custom made, engraved and cut.
Shroud features fools gold nuggets!
Coolant is pastel white with gold particles.
GPU and CPU blocks have been custom dull gold chromed.
Reservoir and radiator custom dull gold chromed.

Everything has had work done to it, and this build took me 3 months to complete.
