The Case

[3P]

So it begins...

Some of you might be interested, some of you might not. I'm not ready to give this to the general public until it's done, so I thought I'd post it here for you lot. I mentioned it to AJ, and I think Muck might find it interesting. Otherwise... you can just poke me and call me a geek

Got a little bit more done before heading off to bed.

FYI, for those of you wondering... this is going to be a Dolphins themed computer case... painted teal with orange accents, a white border around the front bezel, and white fan covers/buttons/handle/etc. I'm going to stencil FinHeaven down the top ridge... and if I can find someone to airbrush it, the Dolphin's logo on the right side of it.

Here's the updated shots of me painting the internals black, so they're not that ugly grey... you won't see it from the outside, so I'm not being too fancy at this point.

**update**

I got started on the fun stuff today!

I finished up the black inside the case, and painted the right pannel a very lovely shade of teal. The shots when it was still wet show it more of a 50's dinner color... but once it dried I was relieved to see that it was a very good match.

Ok... had time to work on the case a bit more tonight. Most of you probably still don't care, but just in case you are:

Ok, one more for tonight... this I think shows the true beauty... I love it!

Every time I walk into the room with it in there, I have to stop and stare at it for a few minutes... it looks SICK!

I love it!

FYI, this is a computer case that I have been painting in my favorite colors. It's not quite done, but it's done enough that I thought I'd share it with everyone instead of just the staff. Feel free to call me a geek, or lemme know how much you like my case :D

Only room for so many colors... though I probably could have used that as the internal color.

I closed my eyes, and picked random cans of paint while at the hardware store.
