Hi-Tech armoured case by DJB Modding

Hi , I'm here with my new project Hi-Tek armoured case
Is a Thematic mod , inspired in games like Crysis 2 and MGS 4 , the main
idea is to develop a computer armoured with the technology of
nannosuite 2 and Snake armoursuite

Let's start with the side panel design (basic)

I made this pieces in MDF (1/2 inch) to get the desire shape

First the cuts

Every piece must be worked manually to get it into shape

Example

More pieces

Panoramic view of the working area and tools used

Half-side panel done , three picture of different angles

Pieces of the two side panel (it will be symmetrical) confronted to compare

Thanks Benny , Yes , it's really hard to make a good design , the nannosuite is very complex and look great , I just try to fimplify the concept y take some lines of the design

More pieces for the side panels , almost done

Left

Rigth

More pieces made in MDF , this time in 5mm of thickness

Pieces glued in place

I worked on them to make the edges rounded

All the pieces together , this is for the fans of the top of the case

Same for the side panel

Complete side panel preview , with this new pieces , I can have 3 different highs , to make it look less flat than before

Thanks ToolKid

More pieces using the same materials and techniques , this time for the top of the case

Drawing

Cut

Edges cut in angle

Finish using rotary tool and sand paper by hand

Some pictures in different points of view of a case-top preview

New updates

After a lot of fails , material and different process test`s , finally I get some good results.
Stop wood work and try something else

Real use of the wood pieces , vaccum forming

cut of the single pieces

I choose to make the pieces one-by-one because all of the fail was trying to make entire panels , it can be done , but I don't like the quality of the results

Preview , I hope to get better quality in the final pieces

To make this pieces , I have to build my own home-made vacuum forming machine , that explain the lack of updates

Thanks Benny !!!!

Keep going with the vacuum forming pieces , both side panels done.
Preparing for copy the main side panel piece , the more complicated

Good for me

A couple of images with different points of view to evaluate the quality result

All the pieces together as a preview

Next the top panel and start painting the pieces .
