    Thank you so much




    Cover-up Update!!!









    Another update only this time I'm going to hide some things ...

    The reason is too much green. It is much better to add more black now the liquid is in.
    Also I don't like the frosted green parts anymore. That's why I replaced the side strips with clear UV green ... and cutout some shapes.



    To hide some green, I have sawn a new plate 1cm smaller than the original





    And copied everything that was in the original



    Removed the tape





    First pasted white and then black vinyl. White is for better light distribution so the edges will glow nicely.



    Kept a small distance between the panels.

    Result:













    Same story with the top plate







    Also did some things to the front to get more black accents But first sawn a cover UV green.



    Which will be placed like this.







    Made the shape of the black plate like this after some puzzling.



    And again pasted it with black and white vinyl.





    Also a little distance between the plates



    Result:



    Beginning to become what I had in mind, so no more big changes.

    But ... we're not done yet

    Love it. Good call on the white vinyl first. I've tried and failed with black on both faces. The internal reflectance goes down so far that you can't even pass light through it more than half an inch.

    Update!!!









    This will be one of the last updates my friends because its almost finished. Just wanna to say thanks for all the great comments.

    So here we go.... Just a few more things to do in this build and then the final shoot coming your way

    Behind the middle section I've got some nice space for a Bitspower X-station





    LED color green





    To hide this and for a little eye catcher I called my CNC friend Pascal...Thanks mate!!!



    Nice result on a rainy day





    Once placed.



    To get a better effect regarding the UV stuff, I placed some UV LED strips















    Since I have a bit of a trauma from too much sleeving in the past, I have chosen the easy way. Ordering Bitfenix alchemy sleeve from my favorite modding shop Highflow

    A black ATX 24-pin extension



    also a 8-pin EPS extention



    2x a 6-pin PCI-E extension



    and last 2x een 8-pin PCI-E extension



    After some pulling, bending and swearing, got some nice curves









    GPUs where the hardest to get in shape, but it's ok now I think







    Next the final shoot... small preview pic.

    Very sad to share with you my friends, but for personal reasons this will be one of the last builds that I make. I still have two special builds which I've started that I will finish.

    But after this.... it's over.

    I must say that I will miss seeing your incredibly clean work. That being said it is understandable that life circumstances change constantly and I wish you the best in whatever you do in life.
