No, i read on a couple places that it isn't a good idea to try and paint th eblades.. i can understand why: the added weight of the paint would throw off asymmetrical spinning of the blades meaning an affect to the air flow.

thanks for the comments!

Nice work chouchou..

Painted the fan too, hardly ever see someone putting a rad grill to the side panel. Very clean and precisely done work.

One quick question for you.. how much did your laser cutter charge you for that job..

Not really feeling it sorry.

The brown on those noctuas with the black just looks like crap.
The blue fan housings on the acrylic doesn't really seem to flow.
Red doesn't "pop" as I think a deeper red would have looked better.

But good job nonetheless.
