So guys, now that we just made the deadline with our TIE fighter PC, i still want to fill you all in with all of the progress i had to hold off on in order to complete the PC. Firstly i will be posting some more pictures of the build all lit up with leds and liquid flowing through it, but here is a little progress first that i want to get you all involved in.
I have added a sound board/amplifier with two 4 ohm 3 watt speakers. I can load what ever sounds i want into it and program it to play every once in a while and make noise when i turn the PC on. I was thinking of having some TIE Fighter gun shots when i turn it on or have Darth Vader say welcome to the dark side etc... What famous lines/sounds would you like to hear from the star wars series?

Mundi a good friend from ICEMODZ.COM Has provided the build with some custom sized cables made from quality Paracord, these cables are longer than standard lengths to create some loose cable for the sliding PSU tray. The colours also suit the star wars theme a lot better!

You guys know how much i love the sanding so i have more for you today and a nice looking TIE Advanced body.
Starting off with the orbital sander to bring the body filler down nice and smooth, was a very fast process with the 80 grit paper.
Finishing off the side sections with the delta sander as it is much smaller.
Also took the time to get the join of the two sections nice and sharp
And here is the shaped up body
Will need to add a bit of grease back into the sliders
Time to start some detailing! Firstly with the front cut outs. I need to wipe down the wings to apply some vinyl as a cutting guide
Now that the vinyl is applied it is time to get the grinder out
A bit of hammering and using the flat head screw driver and we get it out.
Just a bit of dremel work to clean it all up
Now to install a back piece in there to work off of. I cut out some acrylic pieces and sanded them to side
A bit of araldite will hold it in place
Now i am using our foam again to fill in the edges
I also removed some of the steel rod on the guns so that i could foam around them to form up the guns.
This bigger piece that i put on the BBQ was a bit too big for the mould so it got a couple of waves around the outside. I concentrated the heat gun on each individual wave to get them all flat.
As you can see, the front half has been fixed, time for the second half of waves.
Here is what the TIE Fighter looks like with the windows on
Foam is finally dry! time to carve!
I hope you are all enjoying the progress, more shortly.

Time to get some strength into the build guys! This build is going to have some weight but who cares =) it is only going to be a display build, so lets get stuck into it!
Starting to fibre glass the body everyone, i started by coating the body with the resin before applying the first layer
As i add the layers i brush more of the resin stuff over it to make sure there are no dry patches.
Three layers later and this is what it looks like
All dry now and cured so its time to cut off the excess fibre glass.
On to the windows of the TIE fighter now everyone, I got the vinyl plotter out to stick some vinyl down to use as a cutting guide
weeding the bits of vinyl off that we do not need
Now i am sticking the vinyl down on some application tape so i can apply it easier
cutting it to shape
Sticking it onto the acrylic, there are a couple of rough spots but lucky this is only a guide =)
Time to Jigsaw the acrylic with our plastic cutting blade
Final result!
A bit of sanding to clean up the jigsaw marks
Here are some other windows we cut out using the same process.
Anyone want some BBQ acrylic?
The heat of the BBQ heats up the acrylic evenly where as the heat gun is good for maintaining heat in areas. I used the cut outs of the ball i had left over as a mould to get the curve in the acrylic. After that any waves left in the acrylic i can hit with the heat gun.
I plan on etching panel details into the build so today i am layering a 3mm thick layer of body filler over the body. The body filler is also a good surface for me to paint when smooth.
I hope you are all enjoying the progress =)
