Liking the copper tubing. Keep them coming!
Obsidian Build

Yea, it certainly is but I wouldn't go back. I remember thinking my last case was big but it's absolutely dwarfed by this beast! I love it!
The bending of the copper has been a bit hit and miss. Partly to do with the two bending springs I have not fitting properly, therefore making it impossible to bend without some deformation of the pipe. I have ordered some more piping from a different supplier with a different internal diameter that will hopefully be a better fit for one of the springs.
I didn't spend as much time as I would have liked to on the tube bending due to having to wait so long for the pipe to come in the first place. When I come to doing it again, I can take my time as I can do one section at a time.
Will also have a look at available colours for possible painting of copper, but am as yet undecided on this.
I also need to look at lighting as I could do with some more to show off the beauty of the build

Cool build, not every day you see copper tubing!
I agree I don't think the red liquid/copper goes well together. Think this build would look awesome with a stealth black approach with copper color as the accent color. Be a bit of hassle switching your theme over now considering you have quite a few red parts already. Perhaps, black liquid will be enough

I agree the liquid would be the easiest thing to change but with it matching the components/motherboard, I'd still have the red/black/copper blend.
Next easiest thing is to paint the copper black or red to go with the rest of the system. Just need to decide which colour...
Could also do with a nice red case exhaust fan to match...
