Case Repaint

[nailz]

Hey guys, I'm looking at rebuilding my media center PC, as the guts are old, but I'd also like to give the case a fresh paint job, but since I lack photoshop skillz to do any markups I'm wondering what you guys think could be some good color combos for it? Would like to keep it simple, 2 or 3 colors, and I'll probably paint the interior black or copper.

I'm thinking yellow and red for the outside, or some such, as I was kind of toying around with an Iron Man mod idea, but I think this one is just going to be a quick gloss, and maybe a window mod (the plastic sheet is a mess, and I no longer care for the big "X" in the middle.)...

So anyway, have at it with suggestions or markups. Doesn't have to be based on anything, I'm looking for that "oo, I hadn't considered that" kind of factor.

By far the most time efficient paint jobs are simple.

Just take the the thing apart and see which corresponding parts you can paint.

That way there's not so much masking.

You just paint the accent parts a different color than the main pieces.

Check out your local store for special colors like metal sparkle. I like painting accent parts a metallic color and the main parts a dark base color.

I just bought one of those new HAFs from cooler master. I don't have time for a super paint job so I just took out all the wire mesh and painted it metallic red and put them back in. It gives it a killer accented look and took 30 minutes.

I hope this helps.
