Project: Gold Rush (24ct Gold)

[MT. Mods]

You had me up until the scroll work, IMHO it's too big and would look better smaller, also not covering up the writing inside the case it detracts too much from the rest of the great work you have done

Many people will think the same as you, until they see it finished.
There is a point to the filigree work

Ok I shall reserve further comment till it's finished

Maybe this will help

When I saw the name "Gold Rusch" and colors, all gold-ons that reminded me of the reservoir coated with 24k gold, which even fit into your project.
Out of curiosity, you can look CLICK, CLICK

By the way you can see you have put a lot of work in this project - I respect it, bravo!

Update:

Cablemod Cables arrived!

Modflex gold and white full custom made set for the V1000 PSU.
Absolutely love these and cannot thank CableMod enough, they really went out of their way to get this to me and their new lights which have only just been released.
i used this to create my cables: https://store.cablemod.com/configurator/

Put them on the PSU and took some sexy pictures

Fitted the lights and turned them on.. (warning may cause drooling)

More to follow

 

[Bartacus]

That might cause more than drooling, just sayin'. Looking awesome!!!

 

[Excalabur50]

Those cables look epic

Looks like a baroque version of snefs builds! Lovely^^

Tonight i spent several hours working on the sponsors logo's for the front of the case.

However, i noticed that the front panel would be down at shows, so the logo's would not be visible.
So, i've placed on the top/side of the case.

This is no ordinary vinyl.
Each sheet of vinyl was covered with a fine layer of glue, and then 24ct gold leaf layed gently on top.
Once dried, each logo was hand cut to achieve perfection, giving us nice 24ct gold logo's

Like this

And here is what they look like

On top of this, i made a light stand for the project, while it's at shows or events.

The new Team Group T-FORCE XTREEM RAM has arrived.
With striking looks and a premium feel. This RAM looks like it was designed just for me!

Project: Gold Rush is now Finished, and final photo's revealing the rest of the unseen design will be released on sunday night.

Is anyone else having issues seeing images on this thread ?
Seems photobucket has just stopped working on OC3D, yet still working fine on all other forums. :/

 

[Bartacus]

Yup, I can't see them anymore either.

Yup, I can't see them anymore either.

I'm really confused by this.
One day it's all working, the next it's not.

Wondering if OC3D has changed something to block Photobucket.
hopefully not, as i'm not rewriting the whole thing re-uploading, and placing images lol.

 

[AngryGoldfish]

It's always been like that for me. It loads some of them and others it doesn't. Photobucket is terrible anyway, IMO. Imgur is far better.

 

[MT. Mods]

Well it's an hour until sunday. Might as well post some photo's now

here it is, in all her glory!

All fittings are 24ct gold plated
Sponsor logo's are solid hand made 24ct gold.
Whole Case, fans and motherboard has been custom painted with a pearl white and gold effect.
Front of case is engraved and embossed gold.
Side window is custom made, engraved and cut.
Shroud features fools gold nuggets!
Coolant is pastel white with gold particles.
GPU and CPU blocks have been custom dull gold chromed.
Reservoir and radiator custom dull gold chromed.
mesh and vents custom dull gold chromed.
Everything has had work done to it, and this build took me 3 months to complete.

Will be taking more photo's on sunday or monday with a completely different backdrop and landscape for the cooler master world series.
But these photo's are good for now.

 

[Bartacus]

Great stuff man!! The lego dude is a nice touch.

 

[Excalabur50]

Although I really like the system I'm still not a fan of the window scroll work IMHO it's too large and detracting

 

[AngryGoldfish]

Yep, that's awesome.

 

[Warchild]

I love everything bar that window. It seems OTT and distracts from the internal looks. It also a little too "bulky" to me.

Internal components are simply astounding though.
