Update.. time to get creative !
Yeahh its update-time .. !!!

First i cutted a pice of paper out, and painted it orange like the case: (Got the idea from the project log "Big thing")


Then i cutted zwiks out.. (on some orange sticker)


And now to the most nice .. (i think)


Some more:


And some more:


Thats all.. Comments would be nice

 

This is cool. Maybe do something about the chrome screws? Blue like the grill or fan colour for nice contrast?
John

 

yeah .. you have a point !
i was thinking of buying:

 

that case looks very good ...........
but maybe paint the parts of the case that are covered when closed....the edges now visible.....

The red look HOT! However, the original paint job would have worked if you were going for a more industrial/gothic look just replace the plexi window with a wire mesh and a few metal bits... (hmm maybe I should try this...)

Keep up the great work!

 

Just a warning. I bought those AC RYAN painted fan screws once and they are the most useless pieces of crap I have ever seen (at least my batch was). The paint was badly applied, scratched easily, and, worst of all, the screws were of such low quality that I couldn't even screw them all the way into a fan. It's possible that my shipment was an anomaly, but I think you might be better off just painting the normal screws yourself. You can just stick them into some cardboard, hit them with a layer of primer, a few layers of blue paint, let them cure for a few days and you're good to go.

 

Thank you guys for youre comments.. you rock !

As regard to the edges, my idea was actually to paint them .. and I´m doing it very soon ...

^^Yeah .. nice tip.. I´m doing it very soon^^


.. must go now.. have to a bit

 

Small update..

Yeah.. small update [10-2-2008]

Using some tape ..


And painting..

 

I realy like the "warm orange" colour. Looks really good on ur case. Keep it up.

 

I bought a brand new Hemi Roadrunner in 1969 that was bright orange with a black interior. 1st class chick magnet. Anything orange and black rocks me.
This is coming along nicely.
John

 

yeah orange is a nice colour.. and thanks for youre comments guys.

 

Gimme Gimme..

I would like to call this update for:
Gimme Gimme..
Cuz i dont have the money right now, but I´m gonna work my **Beep** of, to get this nice hardware.
I´ve just found some hardware for the case !. (Water-cooling is not on the list, but its my plan to put it in)

So here it is ... [Gimme Gimme..]

 

Nice shopping list. Always had good luck with ASUS myself. Remind me not to take you to the grocery store when you are hungry Keep going we are watching.
John

 

thank you John

 

cool on the paint job, I've seen that rooler way before with some light sanding in between. I would still finish it off with a clear coat for some protection.

 

thank you fozzy.. i am going to give it some clear coat.. but its not because of the protection of the paint-job.. its only for the look... cuz the orange-paint i used, it the same paint you use in kitchens, so its hard like he*l
