    Paint!!!
    The painting Process started with 4-5 coats of Gray Primer that were sanded back and 2-3 more coats were added. Then I attempted to spray the yellow over the gray.... Two coats in Cl4P-TP was a blotchy nasty greenish color. So I hit it with 3-4 coats of white primer. Sanded it back, and covered it with 2-3 coats of flat white paint. Then the Whole thing was painted with 3-4 Coats of Yellow.
    After the yellow dried (2 days) I masked off everything but the gray areas on the top and back. This area was given 3 coats of Gray primer.

    Once the primer dried it was masked off too, and I started with the White stripe. I masked of random spots of random shapes and Sizes. This is to give you the illusion of places the stripe paint has worn through and the base coat is showing. This masking was done with torn blue painters tape.

    This is the point I called the mod "Final" for the LANOC.Org case mod contest. But it's not what I wanted... It needs some Lights, some dirt, some patches, and an easier way to hook up the wiring.
    So What's a Modder to do? Well I Take my second place mod and keep mpdding it! Keep watching cause I have more updates coming!

    Thanks to everyone that voted in the contest! I couldn't have gotten second without you!!

    Till the next update!

    The paint job looks fantastic CBB. A bit of weathering and it will look just like the real thing .

    Oooh, and an 'Interplanetary Ninja Assassin Clap-trap' logo.

    Looks great.

    Funny to See that after all this time I'm still getting a fair bit of web Traffic out of this mod.

    It currently is still in one piece.. more as art now than a PC. I keep it in the Corner of my Office at work.

    Also Here's an exclusive for my BCS friends... I've got a new mod in the works. When I get further along then just CAD sketches I'll get a work log up here. I've not left Modding just jumped over to classic hot rods for a few years. Now I'm back (sorta).
