Still a WIP. Only one side is done so far. I bought two cases. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with the other one yet.

Here, I did a little video to showcase some of the AutoAir Pearlized blue I used on the outside of the licks to give it some shimmer. It'll look better under clear.

Wow, that's a slick looking Xbox. Where did you get the cases from?

Thanks. I don't think I like it though. Compare this with the case I just did. The case is much better. It's gonna get sanded and redone.

Mainman - eBay dude. They were like $36 shipped.

Well the flames certainly are appropriate, given the 360's insane heat issues. If you could duplicate the burning smell, you'd have a winner for sure! ;)

I have a 360, and I love it. Despite the "fusion reactor" like temperatures..

I started over. The colors really aren't that bright. No flash.

So here they are reworked. I have to do the front then drop it off for clear. It's getting cleared with automotive 2k.

Thanks AmEv. Here's the front panel. I'm hoping to get it in for clear this week.

Thanks Will. The camera always makes these colors much brighter than they really are. It's much softer in person, but still has that glowing feel. It's gonna look good under clear. I just hope the buyer (whoever that turns out to be) will feel the same.

As I said on your FB... this looks awesome. You have grown much in the ways of airbrushing!!

Thanks billygoat. I'm glad you bumped this. I didn't put the picture up of it after clear. It's cleared with Sherwin Williams automotive 2k. The same stuff that goes on your car. Needless to say, it's gonna stand up to some abuse.
