But i thought id put it here too.
I dont really have any before shots but here gos.
Those were some pics of the case just sprayed black with some handles. Im starting to do more to the case now.
like.
Some mesh to hide wires and such and a blow hole.
And my mouse painted.
Some perspex case feet.
Tell me what you think.
More!
The feet installed on the p160 chassis.
Some screws for the top fan. Im gonna paint the dome parts white and have them showing.
And last for today, i tryed to do an etch into some perspex with the dremel. I thought it came out ok. better pics tomorrow.
I'll tell you what i think.Quote:

Nice colors. They work well together, and the actual paintjob looks really great. I wouldn't have expected black and white to work so well together, but you've managed to pull it off incredibly well. You've also managed to keep most of the original case with clever little tweaks that make it unique, but still look factor fresh. Your blowhole looks good, nice and centered, although being honest i think you tried to hide those screws and failed a bit; maybe something to put over them would finish the job, like a little cap?
The mesh...the mesh i don't really like. I think it looks a little flimsy, but i know from experience that it can be hard to work with, and you've done a great job with what you've used, no problems there. I personally would have picked a finer mesh. But you've done a great job and this is probably a matter of taste.
Your photography is excellent, (although 2 of your photos are fuzzy) and you've showcased some of the best parts of your case, but we're missing the classic shots: take one from the front left top and the front right top, showing your case in all it's glory, and i promise to give you more feedback!
Overall, a very sexy looking case, and a good job. +Rep for sharing, and welcome to TBCS!
EDIT: Sorry! I posted this while you were still throwing out pics! I see you felt the same way about those screws, the new screws look sweet! I'll give you more feedback when you're done!

thanks man. i will post nicer pics of the case soon..as i am not done yet.
I plan to paint some kinda of logo saying black and white on the right side panel, and maybe put that etch where the cd drives go, and light it white....i am also modding the (imo) ugly top part of the front panel.
The logo i had planned.
The logo's nice. Subtle. I like it. :)

I like your use of the mesh.
totally off topic but i noticed you figured out what size screws fans use plz do tell i can never figure out and i need more since i keep losing them
Yeah i wanted the logo to be simple so it stands out but not too much...also cause it will be easyer to paint.
The screws...i just guessed and bought some lol. They are actually not long enough i need to get some new ones.
Anyways i am gonna do some more today will update in a few hours.
