Well, I met up with Charles from Muderbox.com and was introduced to a live unit. The detail and quality was incredible. He is a pretty interesting guy, very cool.
Well, I am making my own case from his samples and will detail the progress here. I should have some eye candy up by next weekend.
Cheers.

I wanted to put a proper work log together first, but I can start it here. Instead of red or blue, I am going with a black/copper look

I can do one better than MSPaint. Charles is going to give me a rendering of the front panel. It won't have the "murderbox' name on it, like his production cases, but he said he'll do something else for me in the way of illuminated lettering. I'll keep ya posted.
Edit: Here is the front panel I will have him fab up. I really like it a lot.

Sorry for the delay. Things have been too busy to set aside alot of time. Well, here is most of the parts I have collected so far. There is still the custom faceplate, LCD w/custom mount, copper fittings and a bunch of things that need to get fabricated. I have a couple extra mods that were not included with the real Murderbox, and will be detailed later.
Hope these pics satiate you guys. Click on each thumbnail for a close-up.

No, I think he had a date tonight...
He and his EK Supreme are out for a night on the town!
What I don't like are the CCFL lights. Try and use LEDs.
Thanks! Quite the opposite. He is intrigued with what I am doing. I know I am only following his lead for the designs, but I am hoping to come up with a couple of my own ideas to implement myself.
Adding a PA120.3, second GTX8800 card and a resevoir presents a whole new set of challenges when trying to come close to his vision for esthetic appeal.

Is this the stock black finish? http://members.shaw.ca/strue/mM_case_03.jpg
Or is it custom painted?
sweet, can't wait to see more. i'd love to get one of those board trays so i can invert mine

If you can maintain the looks of the murderbox and the quality water setup like robby did with his v2000 tri-loop project you are not going to have a "murderbox" but a killerbox

Believe it or not, that is the stock finish on the exterior of the TJ07. It is such a nice case to work from. The internal parts are powder coated.
When I get more parts in, I'll edit by photo gallery with them.
Thanks for all the comments.

Charles has both standard atx and reverse atx.. I love the reverse.. so that is what I am working from. That way my clear tops on my video cards can be seen through the mesh on the top of the case

everything looks awesome man, i really like that mobo tray
did you remove the silverstone logo? i tried and like half there and half not
ummmm i love the murder box and yours is coming along nicely, but shouldnt you get a motherboard that is actually good for such a project?. even if your not going with the intel chipsets you should at LEAST get a 780i, if only to be able to properly use/overclock that quadcore. just my advice, am looking forward to your progress
Ummmmm, nice. Keep taking lots of pics. I love it.
I love those blank mobo trays... makes me drool every time, it's the best detail in my opinion.
And +1 to this suggestion. Leds are so much nicer when done.
Friedchicken, we are the same kind.
(if you know what i mean)
Looking forward to your build of this awesome case.
