Hello everyone from Turkey :rolleyes:

I wasn't touching my lovely case for a long time, she thought it will last 4ever like this but she's wrong :D
My theme for the modification is racing car stripe. I started the job with Photoshop. The color of the Stripe is the same with the wc coolant.

I really, really, want some turtles now!

Hehe, good luck! Your plans look amazing.
 
Yes they are red eared sliders :) They grow up if you keep their tank large. Small tank=small slider :)

The painting is done. I will mount the case within the day.

Nice job so far. I think the turtles are pretty cute too but we kind of kill them in Australia since they are a pest :(.
 
@AVAFREAK182 they don't have names because i never call them :D
@MomijiTMO that's too bad :(
 
call em Donatello and Raphael.

anyway, i subscribed to this thread.. should be good ^^
 
Yes i did it myself. Thank you for the comments, i didn't like the halfshiny paint job so i applied varnish. I'll post the photos when it dried.
 
Lol, sexy like your nickname :D
New update, still working on the case slowly and funny.

Looks gorgeous.
Gonna paint the inside? :D
I was gonna paint it black but i gave up because i don't wanna mass with the dust :(

Scary :D

Where'd you get the window for your stacker or did you make it yourself?
Didn't get it from somewhere, It's hand made ;)

I love the simplicity of it, it's badass
Thank you :)
 
WC parts, i'm planing to mount them tomorrow.

Tt CPU block

Get something else, unless you are going with 1/4 inch tubing, it will kill your flow, and doesn't have much surface area.

EDIT: I guess you already got it, picture must have not loaded before, wow!, you replaced the barbs with pretty much the same ones as I ended up using!
 
Yes best [486], i already got it and i'm pretty happy with the tempretures. Tt block works surprisingly fine :eek:

Yeah, it did for me too, until I saw what people were getting with swiftech storms, which were the same price when I got the thermaltake block, also they said that it was able to use 1/2" tubing, they didn't say hou small the threads on the top were, so I drilled and tapped them out to 3/8 NPT.

By the way, nice mod!
