Welcome to my next project "ROG Carbine" The carbine is based on the "verc carbine" concept of Aaron de Leon, a 3D designer (hard surface modeling) already involved in the development of several games such as Star Citizen and Section 8. When I saw this concept, I realized immediately that I must build it. I immediately recognized a Pc in the carabiner, so followed also various drawings until I realized where the whole leads. Many pictures do not exist of this concept but since I adjust the model to a PC I had to ample improvise anyway . The goal is to combine the model with modern hardware without changing the appearance. As some may already know I have the same at the German Casemodding championship the first place occupies even though the work is not even completely completed. So here is the pre-release. I think it will still be exciting and I hope you like the worklog.

So here is the first update: I have tried to document all the work but when looking at the photos I see many details that were not properly photographed.but I hope the photos speak for themselves. At the moment I have 260 pictures First a board cut in the shape of the weapon then the essay above and below the middle barrel now two ridges around the barrel to its extent to broaden. The groove is sawn with the circular saw to install all cables of the LEDs later now the first details and then two strips for the sides of the barrel Now I broadened the upper and lower barrel by another 5mm. The upper barrel I saw but later completely and build it from Plexiglas Now the first essays for the estuary. A groove is set with the top cutter and then sawn in the correct length and sandet in shape Now two MDF boards glued together and with the grooving cutter the width of the lower barrel milled out. Then cut into shape and ground. Now the next parts for this area Now the first aluminum parts Here the handle on the lower barrel is now provided with long holes and then bent And here are the covers of the essays from the barrel This was already the first update, in the next I start with the upper barral and thus the first Plexiglas work
Can you see them now? I test a new hoster. Time for the next update. This time it went to the upper barrel, a lot of Plexiglas was cut, bent and glued with Acrifix. and the last two parts of the mouth Now the round elements for the reservoir If ask is please just ask Next time it goes with the AGB holders and it goes to the glass parts in the course which are later illuminated.
This time a bit later but a slightly bigger update. I spare you this time with my technical English, it probably does not make any sense anyway Then, until next update :-D
Thanks guys! So you can see all the pictures? Continue to the beat. Next, the searcher front of the magazine :-D More rings made of MDF The carrier is made of POM then the Mainboard Tray. 2mm Alu Okay Until next time :-D
Go on, this time unfortunately no particularly good series of photos but the little things are just the project to do what it is. the MB Tray glued with Sikaflex chassis glue and now it went to the magazine, the cover for the radiator and the power supply So what is missing now? The handle and the upper cover of the carabiner. Okay next time is about the top cover..
Hi, it's time again, my weekly update. At some point it had to be done, the water cooler on the VGA mount then I needed a bracket for the magazine, 4 x 22mm MDF cubes the mount for the riser cable Monitors can also be connected via an angled HDMI adapter now the top Cover 5mm Plexi cut and bend glued with Akrifix R192 more Plexi in 3mm. CPU - side VGA - side Pity with the 25 picture limit in some forums but they were already again. Then, I hope it was something teaching or not, next time it goes to the construction for the handle and the power supply.
Hi, now the handle. For this I chose Multiplex, a groove for the cable from the trigger :mrgreen: now I have made the grip by deep drawing. the trigger left side the final shape from the trigger more 3mm and 5mm MDF The final shape looks good but there is still a lot of details. More in the next update regards Capten
Heyho ! now i Need extern usb ports for the cable these alu parts have made me really ready bevor the paint job i set all holes for the tubes Loop complete, how you can see, you see nothing XD holder for the res Here the panel in front of the handle, so you can not look behind the motherboard or the VGA. Left a copy of the Northbridge cooler, for more symmetry in the rear area. the psu area more mdf covers the holes for the eps cable two old cabinet handles are exactly fitting these contours I created with key files The cable protection hoses are fixed everywhere with single-ear clamps and some aluminum has been adapted as veneer. for the other side two 8mm MDF stripes Power for the psu only now have I glued the handle to the gun an 8mm dowel for the good conscience How do you get a bent wire straight again? 1. Cut the required length 2.Fold the ends to better grasp them 3. Screw the other end into a vice. Rule of thumb: turn the wire around its own axis per meter 6-8 times. Next comes the paint and the electrics Thank you for reading or viewing pictures. Until next time!
Hi, sorry for being to late but I was a little bit sick. As promised the paint Job. To get rid of the wood grain I painted it twice with this one. Call it Plastic seal but it's like clear coat. the colors used over 100 parts I have coated these parts with textured paint Now all individually painted parts were joined together with chassis glue (Sikaflex) the electrical part 3mm LED White konkav small details I pushed out two inlays of satined Plexiglas, for Standby and HDD Led All openings I have deposited with foam rubber the 8Pin EPS cable then the PW SW buttons and the standby and HDD LEDs and here the position of the buttons thats the status before the DCMM,after that I changed some little things. But the last ones work next time.
Hello, Now the last update We remember, the stat at Gamescom but there were still little things in which I just did not know how to implement them 1.right, the ornaments behind the mouth 2.middle, the yellow clips on the barrel and 3.left, the clips on the reservoir first 2. i cut out yellow acrylic but after remove the foil it looks like a Little bit green so i must paint it in sulfur yellow I've cut narrow strips off an aluminum U-profile I made a few more and took the most beautiful ones that looks good now 3. the Clips from res. I test a liitle bit with wood but in aluminum it Looks better. Now I have glued the clips with silicones on the barrel than 1. as you can see on the last picture,the textured paint has no good Quality. I must paint it again so now the last, left the silver door handles on the Vision Display had to be made of 1mm Alu and on the right the frame of the handle I have painted in silver So that's it, I can carve a notch more on the door frame again: mrgreen: For the sake of clarity, all final images then in a separate post, probably also this week. Thank you for looking! Greetings CapTen
I got to see this while at my Sister's place. MOST of the pics loaded. It came out fantastic. You've done an awesome job with all the tiny details.
