you needs to find a market/outlet for these products, im sure there are people who will pay through their nose to have such custom cases, may not end up being the worlds most profitable gig due to the production time but a bit of extra cash on the side never hurt anyone

This is the first time i've seen this thread, it's superb. Makes my case look very, very plain! Any chance you could scan the bioshock template for us?
An ID related case would be superb - half quake, half doom; and a smattering of Commander Keen somewhere and Wolfenstein...im assuming the stars were 'for the win'

As I near the end of this eventful little project, I would like to thank everyone for their support, and very kind words.
I hope you all have learned a thing or two, such as how to airbrush from a reference photo, some cool graphics and effects, and where to send your cases for a custom paint job... Seriously though, I love to keep these project logs as i think they offer something a little different. And when i started airbrushing there was nothing like this around that i could see and watch progress. So i hope i have helped some one out, somewhere.
thanks ocuk
now on with the best update yet.
These are the pics before it gets sent for clear coat. It will be going on Sunday, so I will spend Saturday cleaning up, fixing little mistakes and signing the work to complete it.
I'll just let the pics do the talking here.
but just before i let them talk... this is the case in a rough state, its all patchy, some bits rough, some smooth some shiny, some flat. the colours are a little flat too.
you would not believe how much of a difference the clear coat will make, so bare that in mind folks
Top of the case: this will be BLUE when cleared
Cases are not the only things being painted in my house at the moment by the way ! This is not my usual dining room decor.
enjoy
