    If you must lol. I have spent so much cash and time on this mod that when it's finished I will probably have to eat it myself haha.

    Green and black is a killer combo though. I am going a little out of the square for my next mod though.

    WOOHOO!!! Time for a very very small update lol

    Well it is Friday afternoon and a lovely 29*c outside so it seemed like a perfect time to paint my fans.
    Here are all the fans with their cables bagged up and with the blades painted with some yellow gel highlighter:

    After I gave the blades a coat of clear varnish the fans looked like this:


    I wish I had some pics to show you with the fan but my camera only captured the blue glow, not the green center, bummer.

    I know it looks a bit patchy but the highlighter kept spreading across the smooth plastic surface. You can't notice this when the fans are running though.

    I still haven't decided whether or not to paint the 60mm fans from the RAM cooler. I am going to wait and see how that turns out before I make my decision. The last fan I have to paint is the one on my Thermaltake Extreme Spirit II northbridge cooler. As the cooler is being used I will paint it when I am assembling the system.

    I also finished filing the cuts on my RAM cooler:


    Since my friend still has my Dremel I couldn't do any more work to it but I did do this:

    I traced the letters from the cooler onto a piece of gloss black mesh I had laying around from a pair of old speakers. This mesh will be cut out and placed in the cuts. Green plexi will then be put behind the mesh. Should look really cool.

    Well that's all for me, better get started on the homework, gonna be a late one tomorrow night . Until then...

    Happy Modding.

    Consistently excellent work, real eye for detail. I love the fans, never would have thought of that method, they turned out great. +rep

    Thanks blue. I really do wish I could show you a pic of them powered on, they look awesome. The yellow highlighter mixed with the blue LEDs makes an awesome green glow on the blades.
