Mickee Boy Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Hi my name is Mickee from the Philippines, I am back with another casemod I hope you guys would like it. For the materials I will be mainly using 3mm thick plexiglass and some spray cans. PC Hardware: Chassis: Tecware Alpha System Fans: ID Cooling Fan NO12025 Watercooling: Thermaltake Pacific watercooling components CPU: Core i5 6600K Motherboard: MSI Z170A Gaming Carbon GPU: GEFORCE® GTX 950 2GD5T OC PSU: Bitfenix Fury 550G HDD: 1TB Western Digital Blue SSD: TBA RAM: TBA Here we go! Base case Disassembly To come up with a new look for the front panel, I removed the wire mesh and the honeycombed grill beneath it then made some acrylic panels using a motosaw. Painted the case matte black as well as the new front panel. Side panels from white to silver. Since the case has a built in PSU shroud I decided not to change it and just add a few details. Painted I do not have a solid plan for this build to be honest that's why the design in my mind keeps on changing. (Yes this is not good a practice) I ditched the original sidepanels and created new ones using plexiglass. Painted. I will use these sliders to mount the new panel on the backside of the case. Here it is mounted, Im quite happy with how it turned out and everything can still be easily accessed from the back of the case if needed be. I have also started to apply the weathering details using spray cans, dry towels, sand paper and a paint brush. Gave the front I/O ports a little tilt. More acrylic for the side panel (front side) air vent style. Additional details for the new sidepanel. Glued together, painted and weathered. Those are all for now, I will be back to introduce and install the PC Components that we will use for this mod or If additional ideas pop up then I will be screwed :duh: but so far I really am enjoying this and that is the most important part Thanks see you on the next update, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickee Boy Posted June 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Update time I added more details to the side panel on the back end. MSI Gaming Dragon and MadMods PC Modding Decal. I felt that the space next to the dragon was a bit empty. So again I grabbed the rattle can, tissue, paint brush and sand paper Closer look at the MSI Gaming Dragon Logo Oh this shot doesn't have the additional scratches next to the dragon.. Those are all for now Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickee Boy Posted June 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 A sort of update, We're kinda' way past this stage but I have nothing to do as of the moment regarding this mod because I have finished about 95% of the work. So while waiting for the other essential PC parts to arrive I checked the videos that I took while working on this project and found that I did make a quick unboxing so here it is sorry about the quality as I am still learning how to do this Thanks!

Mickee Boy Posted July 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Update time just a few though and there is one week left before deadline... This is the front I/O ports, it is normally lays flat on top of the case. It is cable management time, sorry for the poor quality picture. Ta daaa But wait I want to give it a little old school sci-fi , robotic roughed up machine effect Sprayed it with Medium Grey, the orange parts between the gaps are still visible so I need to use a small brush for that. Of course weather it And those are all for now, the next update will be massive Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
