No mate I cannot as I work for Lamptron. Maurizio (Oneros) and I are work colleagues and it would be a conflict of interest. I will post my other build soon. The theme on the other mod is that I like Ancient Sumerian history and as such I read and write cuneiform fluently. As a result i made a build called 'Sumerian Cry' (which is on the BIT-TECH forums) I will post that here soon. However there is no harm in doing what you can not for the sake of a contest, but the sake of community spirit:)

First of all First Side panel completed Please note all photos are taken before the final clear protective layer has been added, the reason for that is that I allow a MONTH to cure! Side panel outside Side Panel inside. Ok next The only spare NEW spacing style rad i have right now is an Old Black Ice GT Stealth. UV BLUE at that =yuucccccccccck. Obviously the colour doesnt go with the builds...... So after some painting and yes i had to paint the fins:( Due to paint type it wont effect the performance very much it now looks like this: The build is REALLY starting to come along now:)

Front Panel outside After de-greasing and priming (as shown earlier) To get this look, I used 'Polar White' then masked the first 8.5cm off the bottom as this will be for the red colour. The red used is a Metallic Hycote 'Tango RED' which goes fairly well with the off-white, but it is still a little harsh even though its a lot more classy than what I call 'Slapper' Red. To balance it out a little i sprayed a fine mist of crystal silver so it appears there are clouds within the red. As you can see there is still a small issue to fix on the bottom right near the colour line. The inside was essentially the same as above, however gloss white was used instead.
-
Redid mother board tray. I cannot alter the slight messup I did with the LED holes, however at least I can repaint the aforementioned tray. This now marries with the PCIE backing plate. This is before the clear protective layer has been added.
-
Finished cross struts Polar white on the outside and gloss white on the inside:0 Backing plate m/b tray area Nice smooth job even if I have to say so myself:D
-
Some more shots of the same plate but on differing light conditions. next the cross struts After the usual sanding, de-greasing and primer etc Finally I used Polar white on the outside And gloss white on the inside. this is the first coat only. note i havent coated this side of the ends really. The reason for this is that all this has to be assembled again:) Plus this side of the ending section is never seen as it slots into the front and back panels
-
next we have the back panel Before sanding and de-greasing After two coats of primer and a good sanding down
-
First of all made a bit of a mess drilling these holes. These are for the LED's the will be mounted near the edge I never realised how thin the aluminium was, well at least the LED's are going underneath the motherboard in order to create a nice backlit effect.
-
PCIE Section. FOr this I used two coats of primer, two coats of Hycote Tango Red (Metallic) and a coat of crystal silver (same company) FOr this I didnt just wish for a candy effect, one wanted a kind of a cloud/mixed colour painting Anyway I applied the crystal silver coating whilst the tango red was still wet in order to achieve this effect. this is before the clear protective coating has been applied.
-
FRONT panel sanded down, just before washing after washing, two coats of primer and then sanded down with 600 grit paper.
