Purple Power!

[diluzio91]

So I now have a plan started for The cosmos case i picked up. And am working in Sketchup to plan it out.

So far this is what I have.

The purple will be this color

and the black paint will be this

The handles will be done in flat black, and all the mesh, (not all can be seen in the sketchup) will be the same purple as the interior. The drive cages will be made from plexiglass, and if i do get sponsored will be places that the companies logos can be displayed.

Then got to the front... I decided to re use the mesh from the side panel.

Thanks for looking... more to come soon, just waiting on a few parts... My step dad works at a machine shop, so i might be able to get the side panel done with a laser cutter. lol...

[billygoat333]

I like the front. :)

[diluzio91]

thanks. i reached out to dangerden for a sponsorship... anyone who can chime in for me would be appreciated!

[SXRguyinMA]

I reached out to them as well, and was told by the self-proclaimed "King (http://www.thebestcasescenario.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26666)" that they're not doing anything.

[Fuganater]

I was told the same thing over a month ago.

You're gonna like that purple. Some advice.. Unless you're using sealer dark under that black, you might want to reconsider. The 4600 series is a candy. Which means that it's VERY transparent. Check out the 4702 (or the black that wicked makes) for something that's gonna cover real nice.

I'll definatly do that, thanks!

Just got the paracord in, pics in a day or two, and as expected, dden gave me the brush off.

[Fuganater]

You could try some other companies. EK seems to hook people up.

[diluzio91]

i talked to performance pcs... between me and my friends i've put a few grand into their company... and i'm always referring people to them.

[diluzio91]

lol. dirt cheap and effective... lots of mess though...

So coolermaster is really dragging their feet on getting me the replacement parts for my case.... im beginning to formulate a new plan... whats the cheapest way to create a 3d structure? Fiberglass? bondo? Thanks for the input guys!

[Fuganater]

Ya it does get a bit messy. I ran out of 1/4" shrink tubing in the process today so I ordered 100' so I won't run out again lol.

But I like the purple!

[diluzio91]

[diluzio91]

So guys, I need some input. For the fan holes I was going to use my initals as a grill (carved into the plexi) Which logo do you think looks better?

Those are just examples, but if anyone comes up with a better one i'll be happy to put it on there.

[Fuganater]

Broken images.

[diluzio91]

Broken images.

[Fuganater]

Now they work. The 2 of the logo. I like uniform stuff so the 2nd one is nice.

[SchaibleTech]

I too like the second one. very alien v predator like.

[TheMainMan]

I'm also voting for the second.

[Fuganater]
