SketchUp MNPCtech & Bit-Tech.net case design contest #5 - (Deadline moved to September 1st)

yeah, it'll take a while. I can't do wires, i'm sorry, but the helix should be doable. Give me a few hours

 

No wires is OK... but if you can do just a bunch of randomly colored straight rods in there, of slightly different sizes, that would do for 'em... if that's not asking too much. If it is, ferget I said a word

Here's your decal sheet

Have fun

PS in case I didn't say it before THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

 

hehe no problem mate, i need the excersize anyway

Some straight rods in the wire department should be easy.

Edit:
It has started! Behold the base!

 

Great! re: rods as wires.

... and just because you were kind doesn't mean that it's right for me to not say thank you... IRL I'm grinnin' (almost literally) ear to ear. Picture a Jim Carrey Grinch smile and take away the sinister bit in the eyes... that's me right now I'm happier than a clam with a mouth fulla meth.

 

those are some disturbing ways to be happy man, if we weren't separated by a significant body of water, i'd be worried

 

Just tryin' to express meself. Sorry if it didn't come out quite right, I was distracted by bein' really, really happy.

BTW that first image is GOLDEN. My heart's doin' a happy dance

 

Just wait till you see the rest, it's a good design this!

 

I can't wait

... dernitt, someone really needs to add a drool emoticon for this forum.

 

Tail done. Are you happy with the curve? I just sorta winged it



Edit: basic shape completed.

 

I'm not sure what's going on here anymore.

 

@Xtrafresh -- That is PERFECT. Way cool. *bows*

@Cheapskate -- Sorry about that. Xtrafresh volunteered to do some sketchuping for me.

 

...all that perfection makes me anxious to see what the final version will look like...

 

Sorry for being absent for a while guys. Ive been having one component failure after another . (no progress on my design yet )

Just a reminder to everyone to have your final images posted before the 31st! Please post your final 1-4 images in a single post just to make things easier.

Thanks and Good Luck!

 

This (extra) month has gone by fast.

 

too fast, and sadly i've had tons of other things to do

 

An entire month and all I've done is model some Corsair Dominator RAM for my design :sigh.

Gotta pull my finger out.

 

Indeed it has, and now i have only a few days left to do two designs! :S

I'm determined to make it work though. Laserhawk, i hope you can understand i'm going to focus on getting my own design (the ITX Bong) done first. I'll finish your design too, but maybe not before the end of the deadline.

Hang in there!

 

I could do laserhawks design to help you out... Would be no prob for me, I binned my own design, Sketchup just couldn't cut it. It'll have to wait till I am better with blender.

 

Yeah this just seemed like a busy month (or two) for everyone. It seems like everyone has great ideas, just not enough time to generate them in 3D. I won't be making any changes to my design (my mobo fried ) but Ill try and sneak some final bits in during lunch at work.

 

Awesome! Please do take over, as my own design is a mess at the moment (see image below).

Download from here. Anybody who would like to have a go, feel free

My current state of affairs:



It's a mess, basically.
