Having idea to mod my case based on lord of the rings theme. Currently just still looking for ideas and no work had started yet.

the theme is basically from the Two Tower are the battle to the Helms Deep. Guess i need the airbrush or anything else to paint the picture


Having idea to engrave this Moria's Gate to acrylic and LED light up on power up the PC


For top panel, may be will have a fan hole inside the rings


Well, just an newbies idea. not even know if its can be done or not. maybe all sifu here got more comment on it.

thanks for viewing

if you do it right i think it's gonna be awesome! gotta find a good airbrush artist tho, or you could etch the graphics using a dremel.

I think the Moria gate you can just mask out the design on acylic, then spray it. The side panel you'll probably have to airbrush the whole thing or print it at a poster printing service and stick on the side panel. I have no idea how you can to the top blow hole though, probably need to do some fancy case cutting to make a grille design within the pic of the Ring.

personally i would think that The Eye of Sauron is suitable to be placed at front..
place it at the center of the intake front fan, and make sure that the fan has a red or orange color LED/CCFL

may be u can take some of the features from the game too.....like a glowing ring during the loading session when ur hdd running.....

the eye is also another good idea.........

thats good idea. when the fan running sure looks like eyes of sauron. thanks

this casing sure bling bling one, add a matrix background might be better

Lord Of The Rings + The Matrix = Bad couple la.
Kenot woh.

If Lord Of The Rings + Harry Potter = Good Couple.

Just joking.

Wow.. gonna air brush that scene... damn...... huhu

wah........air brush that goin to take weeks to be done.....good luck in finding 1....and cost a bomb too

besides of placing the design of Sauron's eye at the front, u can also include the acrylic that is flame-designed together with it..and remember to light it up with a red/orange CCFL as well..
with that, we can see that the eye is burning

hmm........i knew someone who went for airbrush for the whole casing... (front, top, left, right, rear)

it costs 500 bux....

and do make sure that you already settle down with that airflow of the casing, coz once you airbrush the side, you have to use it already......

if i were you i'd go for sticker instead....coz the normal airbrush is so freaking expensive and it doesnt include the clearcoat......without clearcoat, it is not reflective and looks dull....

how much r u estimating for the cost..i thin it will cost a lot man..

gudluck on ur modding..

thanks. may be i will try out with sticker first as my school got color lazer printer, sure can get a good result.

just still thinking where to put the size panel fan hole

it will be best for you to plan out everything first, like the number of optical drive you're having, side panel fan and so on....

if not later when you want to add in a fan on the sidepanel, the airbrush art will be gone

crazy .. wonder how long u will take if u r gonna do everything by urself
