    So guys I am here with the last update!
    I ordered some acrylics for the side panel from my friend Chris Kozis. A 3mm clear and also a 3mm black to add for extra aesthetic reasons!

    [​IMG]

    I marked the edges using a cd to make some round cuts later.

    [​IMG]

    I glued the black piece using some epoxy glue and with some "bottle" help (lol) I let that dry for 12 hours.

    [​IMG]

    Using my dremel and the sanding drum I rounded the corners and also sanded them using multiple grits.

    [​IMG]

    Holes for the screws. Small first, then bigger to avoid cracks on the acrylic.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    I had to cut the screws into smaller pieces so they would fit!

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Attached the window and I also glued the totem I created at the beginning. As you can see I discarded one of the totems cause ... I changed my mind!

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Now the creation of the doors magnet. I used a wardrobe magnet for my creation. I removed the magnet from the plastic casing using a blade.

    [​IMG]

    Some measures.

    [​IMG]

    I used a drill bit after I attached some tape on it so I would knew the exact depth.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    I used some Hammerite black paint for the steel part.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    And finished that with some vitraux liner for an extra art touch and also to erase any imperfections. I also painted the magnet black using Hammerite too.

    [​IMG]

    And for the final touch I panted the CPU's screw covers using some UV red paint!

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    I will be back in a while with the final shoots!

    For sure I would to thank ALL of my friends here on these forums who have been by my side all of this time and I would to say that I feel you guys like you are my family and words cant describe my appreciation I feel for you. To appreciate someones efforts, to watch his work, to guide me and help me those things are precious. So thank you guys and I hope to see you soon again! :)

    The photos have been taken under different conditions. Cloudy, very shiny, and at room lighting. ISO 100, 200, 400 has been used. I am not a professional photographer guys and my camera sucks so please be kind with me :p :) Thanks!

    Enjoy!

    ps: You are going to see the volcano effect as I promised!

The level of detail you have put it is astonishing and the workmanship is second to none. I love this build and all the amazing techniques you have used a created. I wonder whats next on you modding mind? ;)
