EK Waterblocks EK-KIT H30 - Supreme LT 360 Cu



All to arrive on Monday : )

Ay, Dios mio!
This looks like it'll be awesome!

Looks great.. Im looking forward to see how things works out..

Second Update of the Day:

Second and final coat of "skin" (for this one, epoxy as opposed to foam) done. Now it has to dry, tomorrow I will sand any imperfections of over the edge material and prep it for paint (primer).

Yeah I was trying to get some sleep in bed and kept thinking about your idea and the more I though about it, there more I was sure that was the way to go, so got up and made the order : )

Update:

So goodies arrived : )



Ok, lets start the paintjob!

First, a second coat of primer was added, but no need for pictures, it´s just primer, plus it looks like the previous pictures...

Second, a coat of visceral red (it really does look visceral!)











Now let´s darken the whole thing with tones of blood red, purple and black...



more...



mooore! (and while I´m at it, horns!, also, 100th picture of the project)



MORE!!



MOOOAAAAR!!!!!!!!!!



That´s more like it : )

Close ups of the horn that´s almost finished so far...





Now, 3 hours of dry time and then more ; )

Update:

The interior paint is done and so are the case´s accesories, as you can see, I only gave it one coat (after primer) because I don´t think a perfect solid red paintjob would suit the look of the case, this way, it still has tones of the black primer, and it´s now been lackered in a metal finish, that way, even the tones shine. It´s time to start with the components.















Yes, those are the eyes ; ) (modified reservoir).

More updates and final completed update later today.

Thanks midrigs!
 
It´s also stupidly big, the HAF X is a pretty big case as it is, but the horns make it feel and look much bigger (as the actress said to the bishop, that´s what she said, etc...).
 
: )
 
PS: Also, I won´t be keeping it, I auction all my projects once they´ve been around modding and lan events for a year, at home, I use my fav project, which is a couple of years old already, Fallout Cause.

got scared of the case when i saw your works but when you opened it and show the internals i felt relieved. lol now the fun starts!!!
 
nice, unique and weird mod so far lol

Hi Everyone!

I´m back from the Campus Party Milenio, got to meet some great people/modders and see some really good work! Diabolo was put togueter and was taken to this event, however, it´s by no means finished, it was merely made "presentable" for the event. The official presentation of the finished product will be in the Murcia Lan Party on the 6th of December.

For the purpose of updates, I will ignore the fact of the process I took to get it ready for the event in question and continue with the last update I did before then : )

Right so, I´ve put the frontal togueter to see how it would look and judge if I needed changes. First problem, the upper grill was measured wrong, so to much space was left between such and the horns, luckyly, I have spares so will be doing that again.









the 275s have been painted:





the X-Fi Titanium:



The Sabertooth:





The PSU cover (I have left the psu untouched aside from the sleeving I´ll be doing as a sign of respect to my sponsor).



I left the cooling running all night to test for leaks with no problem so I put it in, mounted the radiator, haven´t mounted the pump yet, it´s simply sitting on one of the bays, mostly to see where I want to put it). And turned everyone on, just to make sure everything was working, and surely enough, it was. Only one GPU in though as I´ll be using the other one on my current rig so I can use it meanwhile : )

































I´m currently debating about the horns. While it´s my first time doing such structure, and decently happy as to how it turned out, I´m not 100%, the simetrical different doesn´t really bother me, plus it would be incredibly hard to do so, specially with such materials, It´s the size of them that bothers me.

One of the ideas that came up was to cutting them to a point and shaping them hell-boy style, what do you guys think?

That´s all for now, I´m waiting on some materials to arrive before I can continue.

Yes, he's going to send me all that extra stuff he has lying around :P

woo thats different :)

Most excellent. I am looking forward to final pics.
