Ok - i have finnaly finished my case (almost!).

In the end i decided to paint it satin black.

Before i got started on the case this is what it looked like

pretty ugly really, actually, thats an understatment.

This is the front... ewww

I wanted to make the side window look much sleeker with clean lines, so i took a jigsaw to it

As for the front 2 floppy slots i intend to source a small piece of mesh and mount the switch which turns on and off my cathode light.

Sorry for the low res pics

Will add some proper ones soon-ish.

Also sorry for not putting the images on the actuall board - cba to resize them and re-host them

Thanks

I used satin black on the sides - thats all, as for the front i used satin, and it then ran out - i wanted to get it done quick so i used the satin as a primer, then smacked on some gloss black

The Craig said:
A huge improvement of what it once was, how much did the redesign and original case, cost you in total?

Erm, few tins of paint from halfrauds which isnt a lot

dvd + kama bay come to £32

so not to much overall

Such an effort to strip it and spray the insides black =]

As for the 120mm it means more cutting =[ effort lol.
