    Not bad, but you might wanna try cleaning up the wires a bit, make it so you can see more of the inside.

    theres no point in uv reactive sleeving if your gonna hide it. IMHO it looks fine, there just may be too many colors at work tho, maybe it will looks better with the side panel on.

    To get rid of the finger marks use wirewool the very fine kind to rub it down and the use baby oil to wipe over with, this should do the trick, will this is what I do with my Lian li case when I scratch it :D

    looks good so far, but if you dont want to hide the wires, then route them neatly. Straight lines look good with wires, as do sharp turns, but random dangling about does not. Also, take some sharper pictures, and keep up the good work!

    hey [] tnhanks for the opinion ;)
    yheah you said the truth. i will try to hide the wires that aren't necessary and rout neatly the ones i need because is quite difficult to hide the wires in a so open case because there is no space that you can't see from the outside... :worried:

    I sugguest you do something to cover the cd-rom drives, from the front they look a bit odd each being a different style.

    but I think it looks good with all these different colours.
