Micke's DreamHack Modding Mania

Metal case

This case was sponsored by the guys at Gtek. The case that I've based this project around is an Aerocool Coolview. I've used the black version here and it has a nice clean and sleek finish - I have decided to re-paint it though! I have also put some tasty hardware inside too:

• Intel Core 2 Duo E6700;
  
• 2GB Corsair RAM;
  
• Point of View GeForce 7900 GTX;
  
• 320GB Western Digital hard drive;
  
• Abit AB9 motherboard.

I decided to finish the case with an effect I've seen used on cars and motorcycles on occasion. The effect is designed to simulate metal sheets using paint, giving the case a funky industrial look. This is going to require some fairly intensive airbrushing and a lot of patience!
