    Hey guys, This is going to be a little project I have going before my main computer mod starts. That is sponsored so you will have stuff to look on that. If i give a sneak preview. I am currently awaiting an XSPC D5 Dual 5.25" bay reservoir. The full black edition. It will have a custom painted faceplate when i am finished so if you want to know more about the full build let me know and I will start a project log. That is also going to be based on the digi camo scheme that the keyboard here will have. Okay today my dad purchased the Cyborg keyboard and he mentioned throwing away his Logitech `Ultra Flat` keyboard. I know it is not gaming spec but it is amazing what a bit of paint can do. Below is a picture of the keyboard so you can see exactly what i am working on. Also the paint is going to be in a couple of days. Bank Holiday in the UK this Monday and the model shop is closed so i have to wait :wallbash: DIY stores don't sell the colours i need which makes it even more difficult :sigh:

    Okay so i think i shall leave it here today. I will be back tomorrow with some pictures of it in pieces. I hope you like this mini project and if you wish to follow along please do. Also if you have any places to get Digi camo templates/stencils online please let me know. Online and free preferred. :thumb:

    Be Back Soon

    Oh I will be. I have a printer that can do stickers. I have acquired a template for the keys. They will all be the same apart from the shift keys that will have a sniper and on the backspace i shall have my combatmods logo. I have started this project by starting on the stickers.

    Edit: I felt that standard font was horrible so moving to PhotoShop to make my own. This time i am not sticking them. :idea: Engraving is the way forward. :jawdrop: Will post a picture when it is done. :dremel:

    Thank you for your feedback. I will be hydro dipping the keys in camo. If you do not know what that is please search it on YouTube :thumb:
