Thanks for the tip. Yeah, recall using a marker to colour something once, yes it turned purplish after some time. Was planning to clear spray it after I painted it (black marker or otherwise). Anyway will take my time and try on other things first.

thumbup.gif Happy modding

Hmm she's good... what you used to glue the fan holder for the hdd cooler? Look as thought it'll snapped any moment laugh.gif ... like your ideas, creative... thumbup.gif

Normal super glue. So far nothing happened, didn't break yet tongue.gif , screws are all tight, fan is strong, and my HDD is happy and cool biggrin.gif .

Yeh... i used superglue before, damn tough but blurred the acrylic... haha i saw the thing bend with the weight of the fan so a bit sweat.gif it might drop
*
Not the weight of the fan, fan is light. Probably force from the sides. But then again... it's strong and so far perfect.

Did you sand the dragon thingy to give it the blurry look?

Yes, cut and peeled off the protective layer, then sanded with sandpaper.

You can always go buy those tubes from ACE, even easier lol, just cut between it and slip the cables in... then use black wire tight to seal the ends.

Black color... they have smaller sizes for black ones...
*
How much smaller is smaller? Cos I think the white one I have is already quite small.

QUOTE(Fomisa @ Apr 15 2007, 08:11 PM)
what is the thickness of the acrylic panel that u used? it should be thin and light right?
*
Super thin, super light. 2mm only.
Don't need those thick ones cos I don't bend it, there's also no heavy duty use.

Ouch, thats just begging to be sleeved. Looks very different from the outside; gonna be the first person to paint the inside to match the rest?
*
Actually... I tied them up in a bundle. In that pic, it was released and some are unplugged. Not sure about the insides some more. Hard work to dismantle all parts especially the rivets. Flat black is nice... add in two blue stripes, perfect match. rclxm9.gif
Maybe won't do the stripping part, will just tape up everything.

Plan to change my PSU's bottom and side panel to acrylic, and put the CM LED fan inside brows.gif brows.gif
Still under warranty.

These will all come later. No secondary rig. If destroyed doh.gif ... byebye compy.

Taking up lohwenli's challenge.

Pics of naked computer and bare case is already in my handphone. Uploads coming... maybe tonight.

icon_idea.gif icon_idea.gif Now gonna buy some spray paint.

Just a question... when people spray the interior, is the exterior of the same colour also sprayed (the back)?

That would make things easier. Turn the whole case black inside out with blue design & silver trim. Looks like really gonna have one matching PC set.  rclxms.gif

QUOTE(mwkh_hope @ Apr 17 2007, 02:15 PM)
Normally no. U can buy black flat (i think is no.29), don buy reflective black, not good for interior casing...

Got my flat black spray. brows.gif brows.gif
And... I plan to spray my whole casing... I mean it. So got 2 cans tongue.gif

Not UV paint, infact, nothing to do with paint at all. tongue.gif

So yesterday evening, I brought my casing and left it in my bathroom.
Sprayed white, white, then blue, blue, blue, blue...
Left it to dry while I slept laugh.gif laugh.gif
Then when I woke up... Fu-Yoh~ all dry and nice. rclxm9.gif

Interesting..gonna do any blue design on that?

Hmm, I should post my worklog of my modded PSU.
*
It already has the two blue stripes. Additional designs anywhere else cannot be seen since all the hardware will cover up the other parts.

You should... I need to learn. tongue.gif

So many things had been done... I'm left with the lights and sleeving, in which, I'll be getting those products this weekend!! brows.gif

Then, my work will be done! rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif

Isn't it an iCute? Go ahead and murder it. Its not gonna survive that long after the warranty is over. Besides, they're cheap  nod.gif Seriously.

Heck if it blows (which it usually does eventually) you can get a decent Enlight for the same price as the iCute-and that won't blow for a loooong time.

I'm not forking out for anything which is still usable. FYI, my old compy's PSU is almost 8 years old and rocking hard. brows.gif

QUOTE(id86 @ Apr 19 2007, 12:16 PM)
is the blue stripe sticker or paint?

if you spray it, how can u spray without affect other part?
*
It's spray paint. Masking tapes and newspaper to cover the other parts. nod.gif

pmmonkey, the rear grille of your casing, is it modded grille? i mean the rectangular one? also wonder how you would mount fans there, since it is not circular.
*
It came like this. There are holes there for screws. Either 1 12cm fan or 2 8cm fans.
