Canadian Flag mod - Overclock.net

*ShawnMcGrail* · 03-18-05

Has anyone seen one? I know there is a few U.S. flag mods, like Falcon Northwest has.
I'm thinking about doing one to my Full-tower, but I don't know how original it is, since I can't find if any has done it. I've tried through google, but its coming up with ads for laser-etching companies. So if anyone has seen one of them before, drop a post about it and maybe a picture of it.
Thanks.

I'm sure you could paint it. I forgot what the canadian flag looks like, but I think its red with a maple leaf? Get like a maple leaf cutout and paint!

I think if you want it done right though, get it professionally done.

Airbrush and some Masking tape, Easy. Its only Red and white, and that seems pretty easy. If and when I do it, I'm probably going to color the inside of the case black.
Also, would an airbrush take as well to plastic as it would metal?

Depends on what paint you get.

It's all about surface prep. You might need to rough up the surface with a little with some sandpaper if it's a glossy plastic, or use a primer base first to ensure adhesion.

Okay, well I'm just screwing around with some concepts. I was thinking waving flag across the bottom half side and front of the case. So that would involve sanding down a fair amount, but not too much. Another option (Still under construction in Photoshop) is a normal flag wrapped around the full side, front, and top. I'll edit that pic in tommorow, as 4:00am is a little late to be dinkin' around in photoshop... lol, Gov out!

Id put the flag on top... make the flagpole visible near the back of that side panel and have the flag come across the side and front door... it looks too fake with the flag at the bottom for me
