Beginning: 16-03-07
End: for finishing

Before everything, sorry for my bad english

Hi all

I'm here to present you my new project. The case i will use it's
a Lian-li PC7b. All the project will be realized on one of my CNCs.
I already bought the case 2 mounths ago but until today the CNC
was busy with modding and waterblocks projects for my clients.

The name of projecto says everything, the subjets will be the black
and the red colors. However in these 2 months after the acquisition
of the case I was thinking about the project, having some ideas and making some sketechs.

The photos are taken off by cellphone, then the quality isn't very good
When the project will be finished the case will go to a photographic
session.

The case as already almost know is this

Then now I present you some sketchs that I've made.

As it will be the frontal

Red acrylic and aluminium.

The pieces in acrylic in the 5.25 bays will exist in the 3.5 bays
but in proporcional size to that bays.

Now the sketch of the left side panel

As already you must have repaired the mesh that I will apply in the side panel will be red painted.

The right side panel (can be modified)

And now a general view

Tomorrow I will put some photos.

Regards

One personnal meaning though:i should change the front color to the same color as the side-panel...it seems to me that both colors dont really match??

it doesn't seem but its the same color

Shouldn't both side be the same image? I think that would look cooler than having the left side A square with the edge cut off and the other flames. Also, another cool mod would be changing the power led button to red (not sure what color it is stock). Also make sure you get some nice red light up fans to go with that computer. These are all IMHO.

PPInDaHouse · 03-18-2007, 01:27 PM

Thanks for the sugestions. The fans for the case will have withe leds.

White will look pretty good I guess (maybe better because it will make the red stand out).

Not sure if I like the design, but those are some very nice clean cuts. Doesn't look like a mod at all. Really goes to show how much better it is when you have the right tools for the job.

I will not repaint the original black colour, but maybe I will paint the interior of the case white.
