Before all, I am glad to notice that LUMINA has really pleased the most of people from all over the world. I have no words to express all my gratefulness to everyone who has left kind comments or manifested astonished reactions. It keeps me on the way for planning even more innovative mod projects. All I can say is BIG Thanks!  

LUMINA is a scratch build acrylic case entirely planned to be quite different than standard “fishbowl look”, featuring an unique design with special lighting effects. It demanded me high skill to perform specific cutting, sanding, polishing and moulding for fabricating more than one hundred acrylic handmade parts! The following result comes from very hard work and my eternal passion for modding. I really hope you enjoy!
