Project Black and White Dragon.

I'm still here!

Been a bit quiet recently as i've got an interview coming up on tuesday and i've had a chest infection.

Anywho, i've got the front plate cut, just need to drill the holes to mount the fans:

That needs filing and painting then I can pop-rivet it back in.

Also started working on the side panel:

Just to show how much I gave on each side:

I've got some clear perspex which should be here within a week :D

Thanks mate :)

Will hopefully get some more done on wednesday, thinking about the width of this case, i'd probably need to do some ajustments to the window if I get a cooler like the noctua (12cm version) or similar.

just noticed your sig :D

oh, and nice work on the case, should look great.
 
The acylic arrived today, though it's slightly scuffed/scrated on the surface, not sure how much of a problem this is going to be. I'll be doing some more work between tommorow and sunday so i'll update sunday :)

Just getting a list of hardware i'm going to install in it at the moment.

Pop to a hardware store and get some acrylic polish. With some time and a damp cloth you can make any scuffs dissappear.

Hadn't seen this project, think it was started when I was suspended. Looks great, which paints are you using?

I'm using halfords own ones, going to be taking the white off the interior though, it's not durable enough so i'll just be putting down a white primer instead. I was reccomended that just a colour coat on the inside will be enough.

I lie, looks like it was only the clear film ontop that made it look like it was scratched :o The actual acrylic is totally unscrated and sexy :cool:

[edit]: Preview, it will be painted black though:

Sorry about the picture quality :o Just using an old 3.2mp camera for this.

Anybody here had any experiance removing akasa paxmate? It's taking forever to get off and the only thing that I can scape it off without scratching the side panel is my nails :eek:

soak it with some white spirit that should loosen the glue and help you remove the glue afterwards, nail polish remove should have near enough the same effots i do believe

LMAO! I'm trying to do it at the moment but my nails are gonna snap off (and they're short!).

Got some intensive tar remover which seems to have loosened it a bit.

If you've got the CPC article could you send it my way please :)
