Case Mod - In Progress Project : Entourage

Or who was it that said, " There are no problems, only solutions."

You're doing a fine job of fixing things as they pop up.

 

Hi guys.
i'm sory for not posting for so long... progress has been slow, and i have other things in my life that require time.
so, i waited to make some noticable progress and then make an update... so here goes :

i tried and tried to get the panel leveled...










it's the best i can do... dent is not noticeable as before, but it's still there.





right panel is coming along quite nicely. i had some problems with both panels when i tried to prime them
these small holes appeard






i will try to fight those holes with a lot of primer coats and fine wet sanding.
so, panels primer coated...moving od to ghe front panels








need to coat those masks with plastic primer and then move on to chasis... finish the psu/hdd bay and primer coat everything. then i'll be half way done
once we get to the painting part, wich is my favourite part of modding, things should pick up some speed

thanks for reading, hope to update soon!

 

Looks really nice!

 

oh yeah... i noticed that there is a lot of interest in the sceneey where i live.
so i'm gona cheat and post some more nice pictures from where i work on the case to draw attention to this thread






and... i hope you don't mind if i brag about some other stuff i make.
these things are made of clay and painted with duplicolor sprays... i made them for my girlefriend








it took me bout half a year to finish the globe

 

Wow, a rotating globe?! Thats pretty damn cool. Sibenik looks beautiful... I'll have to visit one day, when I can afford to .

I like how you've filled in the holes on the side panels. What are your plans? Do you have any diagrams are are you going to surprise us ?

 

i have diagrams in my head
i had an flashback a year ago how this case should look while i was brushing my teeth
the image is still very clear in my head, but it's hard to put it on paper.... i work around things when i get to them, so it's gona be a kinda of a suprises for the ones following this work

 

how have I missed this mod? it's awesome!

I'm looking to mod that case too later on this year, very inspired. Just curious, how much space is there between the top panel and the plastic/mesh top panel? (If you get what I'm asking)

 

i understand your question. i also think i can guess where you're aiming at
watercooling radiator maybe?

i can't tell exactly how much space is there, i'll measure it next time... but i think you can fit a smaller rad. in there... yea, it sholud fit just fine

 

Haha, really great !!
I'm on filling the holes in my sidepanel at the moment... what I don't understand until now is why Coolermaster decided to have holes for a fan on the right sidepanel ... thats so much more work for us to do

I hope I am going to have a similar result with the filler as you have... it looks kickass !!

 

Quality paint (and patience) makes a huge difference when you are painting, it really shows in all your previous mods and this mod so far. Looking good buddy, keep it up.

 

thank you. i will try not to disappointed readers of this thread

i've been following your lexa mod as well, very detailed. looking forward to see it finished
cheers

 

Not on the case but still a compliment. The globe is amazing, really detailed, especially around Europe

 

no ha yeah either the Rad ontop and fans underneath or vice versa.

Cheers for the help too, I am poor at the moment, got about £10 to my name so can't order my case or modding tools yet

Thanks buddy, it's getting there.

 

Hello

i made some progress on the case, so here's a small update.

preparations for case priming.





and everything primed and ready for colour painting.





The hole in the mobo tray is for one set of hard drives, and for psu cables.
I also finished the slots for the metal sheet that will devide the case in two parts. It needs a lot of work though. Need to clean and paint the sheet, make it more rigid etc... but it's getting there slowly







i hope we'll break out some painting on the next update.

 

It looks fantastic just primed lol. Can't wait for the colour.

 

It's looking great! Keep us updated!

 

Hi.
Very good start

As probably You already know, the surface was not to clean for painting.
