I need some opinions on this case I've been working on.
I'll show a few of my work log pics before I ask what I'm looking for.
This is one of my old cases, I think the second one I owned lol.
While your looking at the photos, think Coca Cola cooler.

AFTER
I didn't realize a case had that many rivets lol...
It looks nice in the pics, but actually seeing it is way more
impressive considering I had to strip all the white pieces
& repaint because of a BAD clearcoat error.
Anyway, all I have done is what you see because of
color scheming the left, right, and top panels and the
front bezel.
The bezel is plastic of coarse and I'm going to have the
hw store order some plastic primer aside from that a few
other design issues with the bezel I'm working out with
logos & chrome looking shiny metal guy stuff on it
I have the right panel primered and hanging in a holding
pattern on the back porch. The top and left panels are
waiting on holes cut in them for a windowed left panel
and air flow top panel.
Here is where I wanted a few opinions...
I didn't really want the entire outside of the case red!
However, if the top airflow hole is covered with
HEX modders mesh
www.mnpctech.com/moddersmesh.htmlshould I leave it shiny aluminum silver, or paint it white? OR
cut the hole and use a shiny fan grill in place of mesh
Left side panel...Plexi glass or HEX modders mesh?
This leaves the color of the panels...all red with silver
hole and window coverings or a red left and right panel
with the top white panel.
This is what I'm stuck on because those colors will determine
the main color of the front bezel....rrrrr (pulls hair)
Lighting was planned on being an 18in WHITE ccfl inside
the case, and RED led case feet. Should the feet match the
inside, which would look better?
I was also considering a coke bar/cooler/vending bottle opener
on the case.
If I added a power supply to go with it, I think I'd disassemble
it and paint it gloss black.
Please, give your thoughts, I welcome them.
Here are a few paint schemes I've been starring at
