Case will be theme of "Battleground Europe" World War II Online.
Mostly the vehicle gauge panels but also a few screen shots.
Here is a few shots of  airplane gauge planels from the game, and one tank and a shot looking onto the cargo area of a plane.

Case will be dark blue acrylic. What I don't like about most acrylics is the attaching blocks. Remove one panel and it's lost all rigidity. Case will have a full aluminum frame suppoting it's own needs.
Some time at the drill press making tapping holes and holes to lighten the weight. Still as strong as bone and resembles the look of aircraft and yacht aluminum framing
With frame welded together, now to start cutting lots of acrylic, dark blue.
I looked for a long time for the right clock to fit this case theme, this one is the size of a drive bay. Should help to for a cockpit type theme after making it backlit on white. And it will keep time independend of the PC time, (work with PC off)
Frame resembles the airframe of this WWII Douglas Havoc.
Along with some switches and this Schthe meter should start looking like a vehicle gauge panel.
Some clear pics of WWII cockpits
I will address the cooling system before the case takes much shape:

Nothing beats these higher end power supplies. This blue Hyper modular PSU will really look great.
