Alright guys, I just got some time and decided I'll put up some stuff that I took last week, I even took my bloody SD card to do it



Setting up some stuff for clearcoats




Remember the rheobus? Time to clearcoat the sucker.




Motherboard is up there as well.




Here's the paint, krylon I/O clearcoat and Krylon fusion satin black for the plastic pieces I gotta put up.




Rheobus with green/white lights, we all knew the red/blue wasn't gonna work.




Sadly when I put in the power I pushed a bit hard because it didn\t look in all the way and the socket bent up. It still works fine, but I don't want to touch it to re-adjust it.




Top shows the difference between the krylon fusion painted cover (left) and another with a primer and the flat black that I painted the metal with. The krylon is a bit darker and more reflective, but it's still a good way from gloss and it matches the color of a clear-coated piece of metal with the flat black paint. Bottom shows the difference between a clearcoated piece (top) and one without the clearcoat.




The back of the DVD drive, came out wonderfully clean.




And here's the front. Turned out quite good.

And that's it for a while. Gotta do more painting but is bloody cold these days..
