That is one sexy backside. I did the last vinyl pieces and I’m close to loop filling. Printed a PSU brace bracket to keep the shroud level. Love that two tone of the case now, with matte black ontop, front and back, but the case intact. Makes the characteristic handles pop even more. 3D printed
A picture can say a thousand words, but not sure it can cover all the frustration (cursing) from 200h of failed prints, but I have one more item to manage on my plan for this entire mod. The crown piece to earn the name of the mod – Unhidden | Tribute. But I was determined
Learn by doing… Third time is a charm, atlest for me adding this matte vinyl to the top. I got big mod left for the front, so I want two tone. The sides are left original to pay my tribute to the exterior as well. This will be a BIG challenge… Dual pumps and loops
I admit, I’m starting to feel the preasure. Just passed 40h straight and still so much work left to do. I’m starting to feel that scary feeling that there is a chance I’ll not make it in time. More coffee, I’m GOING to make it… RGB testing. I’m using the Alphacool Eismatrix together with the

Also want the symetry with the front as well as making the backside as rich and alive as the front. Everything unhidden. Re-mounted (again)
Day 3 was mostly Fusion concept itterations to decide on a path with the great exeption of the 2nd pump bracket. Started day forth fairly late as I had regular workday (as most of us do) but decided to start working on the front of the PSU shroud and the pump top cover. First piece
First day of modding. Super excited. Started at 6am with breakfast and a long session in Fusion 360. Can’t say I felt bad with a Coolermaster T-shirt and a Alphacool coffeemug in my hand. First thing was to start 3D-printing to maximize work hours. Print while doing other stuff. This is just a small piece,
Ever since the first Cosmos I have had a dream to own that case. When the C700P was released I knew I HAD to own it and mod it. Making it extra special for me to enter the CMWS19, both on the 10th anniversary, but also with this amazing tower. The idea of the mod
