Cooler Master Scout 2 Camo Edition

[jj_Sky5000]

Its been a crazy summer & fall , and has been a blast with my family and friends, but back into the garage i go for a few projects. First project is the New Cooler master Scout 2 case, Having a military name and theme on the box i am definitely going with a camo theme

The case has a very sleek design and the Handle on top is great for lan gaming

I like the window, but since i will be watercooling i will be removing the fan grills and making it bigger

planning on removing one or both hard drive cages to make room for teh water cooling

Time to break it all down

using the scout insignia on the side panel

Camo paracord just need in a few other builds this will be perfect.

One would think growing up hunting a fishing i would be able to paint camo that wasnt the case lol . It took me three tries and several stencils before i begin to like the design .
sanded and Primed

black then brown

beige

a few touches up and it will be finished

Started cutting out the Guns and skull out of plexi. I ended up redoing the skull

testing the position

Benchmarks no lie...
Cases (or any components), with military names always perform gooder than sissy named parts.

I'm missing where/how you used the paracord.

Touching up a few spots

getting ready to cut a bigger Window out , I did like how this look but going water cooling make a pretty easy descion for me to do it.

sorry a little blurry

The paint seems to flow to gether nicely

Camo, aluminum and Mesh from the case what could i make?

using the logo from the CM scout 2 box

Nice job! Wondering where the paracord is though.

A little break for the holiday Back to modding, Adding another cut out on the case . using a new blade and u can make some nice tight cuts with this.

Cm red

but the finish looks pretty good

Making room for the 240 rad for the front of the case, The optical drive bays made it too snug, i no longer use optical drives so one less bay wont hurt. so time to bring the dremal out

Fits now

Stayed tuned more to come!!

 

[jj_Sky5000]

Next up The camo shroud for the interior!!! Dremal Time

mesuring it up

getting ready to make a bend, now wear did i put that bender( all 250 lbs of it)

It was alot harder to bend than i thought, I need to eat some more and try again

time to to connect them

test fit

sand down my edge

a little paint

a little camo

More to come!!!

Are you going to clear coat the case with a matte finish?

 

[szvwxcszxc]

Nice case (originally) and nice workshop. However I would not have chosen that sense of style, unless of course I was on a stealth black-ops mission which required bringing along the PC in order to wirelessly hack through enemy defenses and remotely take control of their automated weaponry and turrets. Wouldn't want the PC giving away your position now...

 

[jj_Sky5000]

More updates!!!!
finishing cutting out the window

Cut out a piece of smoked arcylic

Time to etch!!!

Lights out flashlight on( redneck light table (lol)

I used the etcher on teh ponited ends then bring out the dremal to finish the larger areas

I will finish the missed spots and clean it all up

Side window panel done!!!

In order to be stealthy We need to add some silent fans, But clear isnt going to work.

One of my fav thing about these fans i sthe fan just pops off

Flat Black

next up sleeving

little ass screw drive does have a purpose

Pretty cool. Wanted to say thanks for taking the time to take pics and such. A lot of people do this stuff but you never get to see it.
