Project: Narcotic Orange

[Zephik]

lol pretty much. i just love the way it looks evenly spaced going all over the place.

I know exactly what you mean, I guess I'm sort of a perfectionist in that kind of way. It's why I failed all my art classes (drawing and pottery). I spent so much time on making everything nice and even and "perfect" that I completely missed the deadline each and every time. In pottery, I made a vase out of clay ropes. I only got about a 3rd way done because I was so careful with making the ropes perfectly symmetrical. My teachers say I have an "overly high attention to detail". I guess thats a good thing, but I've noticed that if I purposely try to be sloppy and non-caring that my art turns out much better.

I've always been into art, I guess thats why I took such a high interest in this community. Combining art and technology, can't get much better than that!

lol anyways, looking good bud! Can't wait to see some updates.

Have you decided on your color scheme yet? or what colors you are wanting to use? I think a pearlescent orange would be wicked!

well that link i posted earlier is what im leaning to right now. i might go to some hobby store and look for airbrush colors. and i know exactly what you mean with the art thing.

ok so i got an update. i made the top panel metal outline. here it is.

what do you guys think?

[Luke122]

I think the top panel is a cool idea, but I think it might look better with a symmetrical design..?

Just my 2 cents.. I love the side panel design, and I think the pearlescent orange will be incredible.

i get what your saying kinda like how i did on the side with the circle?

[AMD_TaT3rs]

ok i really need some help. on the top panel i saw what lukifer22 said by how i need to make it asymmetrical so i want to put either two 120mm or 80mm fans for maybe some watercooling or just plain fans. so i have a couple of questions. how big exactly is 120mm in inches, and how far should i space them apart. i want it to fit something like this.

thanks.

well 25mm is one inch so its a little less than 5 inches, if that helps

If I remember correctly a standard sized CD is 120mm. Also I think that the small CDs is 80mm. Maybe you can use CDs to see the sizing.

[lorddarkwolf]

a 120mm case fan is 4 3/4 inch square.

1 inch = 2.54 centimeters
