    one could believe that the case does not evolve/move much because the photographs resemble each other but there are no more cracks

    tomorrow I plan to wetsand the filler and the last littles wrong things and then apply primer color to get it ready for a nice paining job :D

    Great work, looks really smooth now :D :D. Love the effect with the clear plastic in the top, much better than having straight edges or something. Cant wait to see it lit up, as always!

    Great work! :thumb: :thumb:

    Looks great but are you going to keep the filler over the fan grills? it looks pretty good like that : ).

    thank you all :)

    no there is some masking tape on the fan grills, they will be clear but i had planed to use some dust filters between the lexans parts fan grills to kill noise from fans and for dust of course, then only the edges of it will be seen

    may be i ll made lighting test tomorrow to see how shows light but the real test will be when all the internal parts will be in their right places

    Looks tasty in primer dude. Just one thing - we can't see the acrylic middles anymore.... that kind of sucks - they looked so sweet.

    Tulatin...
    I guess he will remove the primer on the plastics ;)
    as the plexi is one part of the design I don't believe he just
    hide them under some paint...

    SweMOD correct, probably got some masking tape over them, thats what he usually does, can jus peel it straight off then.

    well guys this crazy case is going to be painted with a mat black color, for the lexan that's right i put masking tape on it ;) that would be so bad to mask lexan parts with painting :eyebrow:
