Greetings! I'm new here, I'm SamCa, modder from Philippines.

Huge thanks to EVGA for choosing me as the december winner 


I will be building project "Winged Victory of Mercy"

The mod was inspired from the the greatest masterpiece
of Hellenistic sculpture, Winged Victory of Samothrace...

....with a mix. The design will be combined with Angela Zeigler aka Mercy (from Overwatch).

I decided to pick her because she perfectly fits as the "modern angel" of the mod.

 
I modeled her into the looks of the statue and the planned scratch case.
I will be using metal bars for it's base to support the motherboard, gpu,
psu, rads ,reservoirs and specially the radiator .
 




The Motherboard is placed below together with the reservoir and gpu. The storage devices and psu will be inside the body.
(I will make a mechanism in which i could open the body to expose the storage parts and psu)
the radiator is placed at the top as well the fans with it.
The watercooling tubes will be sketched throughout the build.
 
For the armor, I will be using fiberglass and resin. For the other details like the wings, i will be using acrylic sheets.

    Before anything else like the fiber-glass and resin. I need to make the paper model of the body for the base.
    I printed out the parts to be placed together.
    I used sketch-up, exported to obj, converted to pdo, and unfolded using pepakura.
    The cutting begins!
     
     
     
    I used my old good hot-glue and scissors for this process.
     
     
    It took me 6 hours to finish this upper half





    I finished the torso of the mod. next week I'll make the wings,
    the lower armor and the metal base for the parts to be placed inside.
     

     
     
     
     
    Around end of march I will start the fiber-glass and resin process. Stay tuned!

    I did not expect that the wings would be complicated xD
    So here it goes, I'll try to finish everything before the parts will arrive.

    Almost there,  finished the to-be-fiberglass parts.
    Checked the wings part if its size is proper for the radiator size(420mm)
    The other details like the orange feathers of the wings will be made from acrylic sheets (4mm-4.5mm)

    Hi guys, here's the update. The body will be finished very very soon.
    And i will be working on the wings next week.

     

    I used steel pipes for the frame.

     
    Here's the plan for the frame:
