Hi,

Any issues specifically? The other users have suggested lowering the filesize of the photos as the mod2win site seems to be configured with a file limit (Some have lowered it to 500K per photo).

Also, some users who have previously uploaded photos and are having problems replacing them, I would suggest re-sending a new profile and just using that one since Gigabyte has re-opened the registration portion yesterday.

For now, I would suggest uploading all the necessary photos plus your worklog in these forums so just in case Gigabyte doesn't resolve the mod2win site on time, the necessary photos are available here.

If you need help anytime, you can reach me here, or via email ron(at)modders-inc.com or on Facebook: Ron.Perillo

Cheers,
Ron

Thank you for you fast response and for the help!

The issue am having is the following I do not have the option to upload more photos, I can see the previous 4 I upload at the beginning but it doesn't let me upload more when it say that I can upload up to 10 pictures in there. I will post all the necessary pictures here and I will try later with site. Thanks and have a wonderful night!

The first to create this masterpiece was get inspired based on the first concept I send to enter the competition so I went back to my basic and installed Solidworks and let my imagination flow. Here are the renders I made a few months ago.

After I finished the first 2D and 3D sketches I proceed to print a blueprint to make sure everything was okay and fix it before I laser cut the piece, took more measures and add a few thing I was able to reduce the size of the case by 25% now it looks like a mid tower. Then I proceed to laser cut the 98 pieces that will form this big puzzle.































Making the Reservoir









Making the 16 brackets that will hold the body in place.

After putting most of the parts together I proceed to paint most of the parts. I went to my local car paint shop and ordered some custom blue metallic tones and a dark gray (metallic).

Since I was able to finish the paint job in time I proceed to do the final assembly and fill the huge reservoir for a leak test.

Man, there was so much suspense waiting for your build log as we didn't see any until the past few days. lol.

It turned out to be great of course. I'm glad you stuck with the original concept and design. I thought maybe you changed your mind mid-way and did something else last minute.

Thank you very much for participating and good luck in the competition.
