That build is fantastic and so is your photography, well done.
Thank you, was really fun today shooting this. Might try my hand at a video next.

Fantastic build and I’ve got to ask what camera you used, obviously a man of many talents!!
Soldato
Yeah we want a video
With some nice led effects
To really show it off
No rainbow puke though please
Not only did he do a fantastic build
But yeah
Had to show off
And be the next David Bailey too
Can't you just be bad at one thing
Give the rest of us a little bit of hope lol
Seriously though
Did you photograph it
With some sort of black backdrop ?
Or use editing to remove the background?
Or something totally different?
My idea of photography
Is point and pray lol
Did mention not an artistic bone in my body previously

Trusty Nikon 7200 with a 35mm lens for these photos with 2 light sources to drop those shadows abit.
Thanks

Haha i really wanna do this, might give it a go through the week but we'll see. There ain't no rainbow puke in any of my builds
.Lol, more like Amateur photographer! If i can get my lighting set up correctly as im still tinkering with it i'll do more pictures. Got a new LED panel yesterday so had to test it out. Really like the outcome, it did exactly what i wanted it to do.
Yup all the photography work is my own, i should really watermark it like i use to. Using a fabric black backdrop and dining table with a black fabric top to get the effect. Lightroom edited to adjust the backdrop levels and abit of tinkering here and there. I didn't even get the creases out of the fabirc cos i knew i would be editing anyway so didn't matter as much.
Its just practice for me, the more i do something... well the better you get

Amazing build!! Even though the pictures are out of this world, I bet they still don’t do it justice!!
Thanks!
Its quite hard to capture it in pictures cos there's so many angles where the build looks good.
This build might not be done just yet it seems, i may have found something to tidy up the rear some more bringing the idea of a manifold back to life once more
.
Soldato
until the next time
Not quite done yet, tonight im installing the Manifold so i can tidy up the backside.
And then new project starts after the New year. I will announce it as a new project when the time comes, some good news i guess.
Now im finally done, the manifold solution to be able quickly add another system to the loop if needed! The 2 extra ports will allow me to screw in 2 more QD's as an inlet and outlet, just a quick reconfig of all the connections and i could have 2 rigs run off 1 big radiator.
