    Need to make them look dated somehow. Black outline everything in there as well.

    Is this going to roll? If not maybe make some mud on the wheels and shovel so it doesnt look so "new" ?

    It's going to be on the countertop at work and it does roll, but I don't want people trying to roll it.

    So, I started painting the treads. First I went all black.



    Then I started the silver.



    I need more exacting brushes, so I'll have to finish tomorrow

    I painted the front undercarriage black



    Then finished the paint on the left side treads. That's all I'm doing on the treads. I think they look best without any yellow.



    More to come

    Today I received a gift from OCZ.



    And I picked up a fan bus







    And now it's time for some paint

    I thought about it today, can you get a big exhaust pipe coming out the top? Every time you see one start up you get that big puff of black smoke from the top exhaust.


    Looking good man!

    I've been looking at that and finding a way to replicate the smoke too

    Here's the parts list thus far:

    Gigabyte 990FXA-UD5
    AMD FX-8120
    16GB Crucial Ballistix
    Radeon 6950
    1TB Revo Hybrid
    850 Watt Enermax 80 Platinum

    Not sure about cooling yet

    for cooling maybe an H80, paint it yellow and front-mount the radiator just like a heavy machinery one?
