:) Can't wait to see some pictures (or renders) of how you are going to mount the HDDs. How many HDDs you putting in there?

Can you send me a pm on how you painted the fans or to a guide.. my new 180mm silverstones are white and I need them black!
Yes, we need more pictures :)
The renders as requested by dreamaxx. :up:
I hope you like 'em because the Himuro was a pain to model, haha!

Now I want to redo the res-mount, getting tired of it. :shakes:
Thanks! :)Quote:

You can separate some fans at the bearing though, but it's still a huge risk upsetting the balance. :)
The closest I've come to painting a fan recently is this guard.

I'll try to put up some kind of studio soon. :up:Quote:

You guys are the biggest resource I could possibly get my hands on, thank you!
Some pics from the photo session as promised! :)
Sorry about the GPU and the lack of other parts.

Tried some new techniques, I hope you're not disappointed. ;)
Theese pictures are beautiful!!!
Btw, the last one was like... creme de la creme :D
Looks great Laine!
I really like your dramatic lighting. :)
Finally got my second Himuro for the LiLi, mounting is just temporary.
Next up is redoing the reservoir mounts, ideas are welcome. :up:

The reflection is made by using a piece of clear acrylic, for those of you wondering.
Thanks, I'm trying to learn different techniques and these builds are all I have to use at the moment. ;)Quote:

Think the old mount looked good. If you are going to place the res in front of the Himuro, try to make it so the res + mount wont obscure the view of the Himuro :)
Maybe you can get some white light with led's or something close to the Himuro's so the Himuro ribs (heat sink) will stand out if you know what i mean. Experiment a bit, might look bad or might look really cool.
Great! :up:
How did you attached those Himuro to the case?
By the way, gorgeus building.
Very nice job.
Nice and clean :up:
great!
those two himuros are awesome in that position. how will they be attached to the case?
White tubing never gets old=) Nice job
Love your rad placement, unique and definitely looks great.
The vertical HDD's look amazing as well.
Could you show us some photos from the place where you take those beautiful pictures? I really love the black background on the photos:up:
Nice Mainboard btw, have got the same:D
beautiful work! congratulations
Really like your photography skills Laine and your case is comming along nicely.
I first saw the photo of your avatar in the cable sleeving guide.
I clicked on your work log thinking I had been missing out on an excellent air coold rig and instead,
I have found that you have started a new project and you have jumped to WC, which I do feel is the right way to go.
However I do still really like the photo in your avatar.
Keep up the excellent work.
Yeah I'm planning to spend quite a lot of time on getting a near perfect setup for the lights.Quote:

Thank you!Quote:

I've got a worklog for it too, but it's completely in swedish.
And sorry about the lack of updates everyone, but I'm not seeing the point in telling you through pictures that I've bought new fittings and some more tubing.
Hopefully I'll get the project roling again soon, but at the moment Iäve got three other cases I'm working on. :shakes:
Nice, Laine! As usual, great renders, great real life, and great photos! Those Himuros are sweet.
Laine have you used the Scythe Himuro Hard Drive Cooler before?
If so how good where that at cooling and silencing the noise from the hard drives?
Thanks for the kind words, shazza, really makes me want to continue on!Quote:

Some what higher temps but not alot of noice absorbation, might be the case though! (LiLi A05)
Sorry about the REALLY slow progress, and I've yet to order the major parts of the watercooling.
My main rig had a major melt down so I had to get some 1600mhz dominators and a proper SSD, and being on a students budget it was quite a blow.
Anyways, here are some new pics, still experimenting with the photography.

I'm planning on getting a 120.1 Feser radiator and the last piece of the puzzle that is the motherboard cooling soon. :up:
After that it's a total tear down and I'm going to rebuild the lower compartment.
Again, really sorry about the slooow build progress.
And the mandatory 3d-update. :up:

I'm not really sure but this could very well be the final side panel design, it pretty much shows of what I want it to show.
I wouldn't apologise about the slow progress, we can wait, it's the quality of the end product that counts, or at least for me.
Looking good Laine.
looks awesome Laine.
I think it's looking great so far! I can't wait to see how you solve the wiring issues behind the mobo (I had a hell of a time there).
Looks like it may get tight if you try and get a pump+ 120,1 in the bottom next to that dualie. But your craftsmanship is fantastic so I have a sneaky suspicion you'll solve it!
Keep it coming, and thanks for sharing.
