Project: Animus
This is a slightly different project for me, I'm doing a pair of computers at the same time. Nearly identical. The theme is H.R. Gieger, and specifically Li II. I thought it only appropriate to use a pair of Lian Li cases to start the mod off.
*Attention* Expect sparse updates, this mod won't see a large amount of updates for a few weeks while I get the money to continue working on it, just putting up here so I can keep track while I work.
A1 & A2 Specs:
» Lian Li PC-7B plus II Black Aluminum ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
» XG Vortec 600 Version 2 600w PSU
» x4 120mm Thermaltake Fans, Red LED
» x1 80mm Thermaltake Fan, Red LED
» x2 70mm Thermaltake Fan
» Silverstone USB Bay
» Corsair XMS2 2GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit
» AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+ Windsor 2.6GHz Socket AM2 Processor Model ADA5200CSBOX
» EVGA 640-P2-n821-AR GeForce 8800GTS 640MB 320-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP
» ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe Wireless Edition AM2 NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI MCP ATX
For those curious, here's the Li II Painting that is the inspiration for this mod:
I'm using a pair of statuettes from McFarlane toys that will be molded onto the front bezel. Along with a few other surprises.
More coming soon...

Re: Project: Animus

Re: Project: Animus
Thanks for the comments guys, first off. This is part of my ongoing remodeling project. Since my wife and I moved into our new house, I've got my own room to do with as I please (she gets the rest of the house, I can have one room right? )
To answer your question Mach, I already have 2 comps on my desk. One to either side, and monitors across my desk with a kvm in control of it all.
Here's what my current cluttered desk.
I multi-box in WoW, while watching old Mel Brooks movies. So I can use multi computers, and because I can.
Now, on to an update:
I got these recently from Perth, it was actually cheaper to buy it in Australia and have it shipped here to the states, than to buy it in the states...
Here's a pic for scale purposes:
Items purchased so far:
Case x2
PSU x2 (thanks eBay)
Li II Statue x2 (thanks Aussies)
More coming soon...

Re: Project: Animus
I like the two cases at one mod. Looking forward to seeing how this goes. Are you molding the statues into the case or something?

Re: Project: Animus
If thats gonna be your face plate thats gonna be sick. I thought you were just gonna paint/decal them on or try to make it from scratch. Hope it works out. I'll be watching.

Re: Project: Animus
To answer the question, yeah this is going to be a 3d mod. I'm molding these statuettes onto the bezel using an epoxy I call the green stuff. It comes from Games Workshop stores if you're interested.

I just ordered a few packs of it, along with some styrene. I'm also going to get to work on the KVM switch. I got a nice IoGear switch from NewEgg, now I just gotta do a little work to the casing to make it go along with the whole mod. Next, I gotta take the guts out of the Lian Li case I have here, and transfer it to another case. Once the project is actually done, I'll be using my current rigs as a server and lan box. But that'll be another project for another time. After I get Leviathan and Animus finished.
