well as promised here are the pics *waits for flames about ruining the case * thinking about balencing the case up with something on the other side or mayb a little bit extra on this side. any way heres the pics, let me no if you can think of any improvements, apart from buy a new side panel

thanks. it takes a while but imo i reckon it doesnt look too bad

bluntslide · 27 Jul 2007 at 19:10

now thats very different, good to see something fresh/new.
nice work man, that would take me about ten years to do!

SGWills · 27 Jul 2007 at 19:16

hasnt taken me that long thankfully, worst bit was the outline, one little slip could have been costly :eek:

Hessian · 27 Jul 2007 at 19:38

Nicely done and as mentioned very original.

-Nick- · 27 Jul 2007 at 20:03

ChoÞÞer · 27 Jul 2007 at 20:35

Ruined...

Good Job

SGWills · 27 Jul 2007 at 20:46

made me laff even thou i was expecting it some time

possibly more pics 2nite if not 2mora

taz488 · 27 Jul 2007 at 22:43

why not just get a sticker then you can always remove it if you dont want it

instead of something permanent

SGWills · 27 Jul 2007 at 22:51

because..............................................this is free instead of buying a sticker

plus stickers peel off after time, this wont

....because you will be picking at the side of your case on a regularly?

you never know

plus i think it would be more of an achievement doing it from scratch myself rather than peeling the back of the sticker of and placing it on the case

quick little update 4 you all

Case is nearly finished and the actually pc is nearly all finished, shall post some pics of the complete "beast" :confused:

next thing is watercooling

so expect more pics and possibly another little thing i want to try :eek:

ChoÞÞer · 17 Aug 2007 at 03:54

you should do a project log mate, its always fun reading them

SGWills · 17 Aug 2007 at 08:16

I was thinking of doing a project log seeing as its my first watercooling attempt, i could be tempted too however for the engraving i havent got to many pics of it before it started, first outlines etc

i will have a dig around my house and my pc later tonight to see if i got any old pics
