[Worklog] Prototype 214 ~ Smasher

[Smasher]

Two weeks ago we started with the "Prototype 214" project as a representation of the games and hardware pege, and also as a kind of inauguration of the new section of modding of Tecnogaming.
Let's start with the case.Vitsuba Voodoo. The main idea of this project it's to mix the colors green, black and grey. The color of the red fans are going to be replaced by the green color.
Apart from that, also a hardcage to hide the power supply and the DVD optic drive.
Changing the fan's red leds that are set as default by the ones that are green, trying to keep the theme of the mod.

This way started the project. This is a preview of the case with its original parts:

Cutting the metal to make a new entrance and exit of the power supply wires:

Setting up the screws in the hardcage.

Alright!

And the holes to pass over the cables:

Ok, a change of matter, some handles to bring the case everywhere .

Heat skin for the HDD:

DVD optical drive bracket:

Friends came up, so, LET’S MOD!

...Hahaha

And the part of the Project I didn’t want to start, the front

Just for the pic…

In the next days I’ll be finishing the front part… The bottom part of the front and cover imperfections are left …

 

[Smasher]

We keep up with the front part of the case…

2 fans of 140mm

The upper fan with an effect of a sniper sight… (Don’t complain about that a part is missing, it’s just like that and you’re going to see how it is when finished)

Bracket for the 2nd HDD

Bracket for the 1st HDD

This acrilic is going to be in the bottom part illuminated by leds, it gives the effect of a green light right down the HDD.

That’s all up to now, see ya next time! =D

 

[Smasher]

We continue with worklog.
Base de pintura:

And a few layers of color:

A VGA cover in process…

And the personal logo comes true!:

It doesn’t look right because it’s too much light…

That’s all up to now, I’ll be updating it next week

Nice work guys.

Great project! Looks very nice so far!

Not sure that heatsink for your HDD will be affective with so little contact to the actual HDD... is it only for looks?

 

[Smasher]

Well finished the project I present the final photos. It went up the other side of the worklog, because as someknow, I had a serious problem with my external hard drive and lost everything.
Finally, I leave the photos and no more words to enjoy.

Ooooh, nice! This is quite a unique mod. I really like the guy on the front. Nice touch. You did a very fine and thorough job.

Great looking case, love how you covered up the power supply and the GFX.

Great mod!

I really enjoy seeing mods like this, done by people versus some press or laser cutter doing all the work. Good job.

Wow, a very nice mod! I really like the color and the coverings, etc!!

I really enjoy seeing mods like this, done by people versus some press or laser cutter doing all the work. Good job.

Don't be jealous of those with resources. It still takes a lot of time, energy and know-how none the less.

Very nice.

The initial pics I was wondering why you were trashing a perfectly good case.

The finished product looks nice.
