Nice job dude, I love the white cable ties

thank you! i used white ones around the back panel, mainly because i have the largest amount of those around. on the inside chamber i used a few yellow ones on the graphics card power and optical drive cables just for a bit of color in the case

I'm sure you could do it! it just takes a lot of time and planning it out as you go, and like Tom said if you see a way it can be done better/neater/with less cables dont be afraid to snip a few zip ties and do it over again.

Just had a look at your build log--looking good!

Also, if you're interested there is a more detailed post on my log here that shows more pictures from my little session last night.
