I finally decided on a theme for the interior, and have made a start on it. I have sprayed the case interior and side panel window trim gloss white. I think it goes really well with the aluminium. The liquid I am using in the wc loop is going to be blood red and will provide a good contrast for the white/aluminium theme. I done the spraying over the weekend and here’s a couple of rough shots to give you an idea of what it looks like:


I have cleaned the case up since taking the pics and I think it looks quite good. I will try and get some more pics done today. I have decided on how to go with the front panel, and after a visit to my arcylic supplier and tring out some samples, I am going with plain white 6mm. It’s going to be finished with some chrome vandal proof switches and a 120mm fan grill which matches the 240mm one I have for the rad (polished steel). I basically want as little as possible on the front panel as I want the whole of the exterior case to have a clean and uncluttered look. The project is pretty much at a stand still till I get the arcylic. I had most of the kit for this build already but I have ordered some new stuff. Here’s what the rig will consist of when finished:

Cheers,
Stu
