lol
 
ey thats got potential

got any more pics or designs of how you put it togather?

tell us more about it
 
I have some pictures left on my memorycard.

I first cut angled aluminum and stuck them together with a silicone (same one that is used to stick spoilers on hatchback cars) to create a flame.

Then I designed the whole case in ACAD and sent to to be cut on 2mm aluminum with a water jet (which came very very expensive. almost 200euros and still require a metal back, side and another side with perspex)

200euros can get me a Cooler Master Sniper easily.

then i used some tools from my dad's workmate to bend them.
 
here it goes:

the most expensive part of any work is always labour:(
great job on the look so far though! what are your plans for the side panels? any drawings available?
 
i have hand drawn designs of the whole project.
for the side panel, its going to be 100% perspex and on the other side, a plain side window like the corsair obsidian.
