New mouse mod

[SgtM]

Well, I've been toying with this mouse for a while now. I think the paint scheme has changed about 6 times or more. I finally finished it up last night. Auto Air paint through the airbrush, and rattle can clear (not buffed yet). I also changed the tracking LED from red to blue. The pictures suck.. I should have used a tripod. I'll retake them sometime. Enjoy.

Great colors Rick! I am assuming those drops of light blue are part of the design? They look nice, I'm going to have to start sending my peripherals to you in the mail for makeovers ;)

[SgtM]

Thanks Jon. Send em! Cover postage and paint (http://www.tcpglobal.com/autoaircolor/), and I'll do whatever you want to them. The same goes for all TBCS members. As for the drops, I was just playing around.. didn't really have any idea where I wanted to go with the design. I have another mouse that I want to do something to, but just not sure what yet.

It looks great.

[Zephik]

That looks pretty good. I like the light blue specks and streaks, it reminds me of the night sky. :up:

[SgtM]

Thanks Zephik. That's kind of the effect I was going for. I'll probably buff the clear tomorrow or Thursday.

+rep. Awesome job on the paint. May I ask what type of mouse it is?

[SgtM]

It's a really cheap (like less than $5) GE mouse.

Actually, I think I have that exact mouse. It looks so different modded like that.

[SgtM]

This is what it looked like before I voided the warranty.

I'm pretty sure that's it.

[EspoNation]

its still hot for only being 5 dollars.

[Drum Thumper]

I've got that same mouse. I'm thinking of doing something to it...what yet, I don't know...but it's gonna get modded. Probably something similar to this.

Nice work!

[blueonblack]

You voided the warranty on your 5 dollar mouse?!? Are you MAD??


Seriously, I like the mod. Especially (for some reason) the changing of the LED color. Never would have thought of it. +rep

[SgtM]

I got the clear buffed today. New pictures coming right up.

Very nice, the buffing made a hell of a difference.

[nevermind1534]

[msmrx57]

Sweet paint job. Looks way better than a $5 mouse should. +rep for making cheap look so cool. Great music too by the way. :up:

[billygoat333]

very pretty :) +1 to the music :D monster garage theme isn't it?

[SgtM]

Close, they used it on Overhaulin. Kicking Harold - Gasoline.

[billygoat333]

THAT'S what it was lol couldn't remember.

[Freakout]

Nice mouse. i wish i could pull something like that off, but i think it would be just as bad as when i tried to mod my 360 controllers.
