    Thanks Princexxx
    I've been putting off getting the final coat down until I shift a bit more of my current workload but I need to act soon before we lose the clement weather round here we've been having lately. :worried:

    I have a new camera winging its way to me in a day or so though, so I'm sure that'll be a good incentive for me to finish it and take some final pics. :)

    Till then, here's what it looks like in silver, rubbed down to a matte flatness ready for one more coat of silver before the clear goes on.

    Modders mesh is now in too - if you get some, mind your fingers on the edges of it, I forgot to wear gloves when unwrapping it and speared my finger once or twice, at least. :waah:

    looks good in the silver, real professional/industrial look. i'm using a case very similar to that, the modding possibilities are very large, its always good to see new mods like this.

    anywhere else on the case using the mesh? side panel etc?

    looks great - can we see the final result - you said you'd put one more coat of silver on...

    Keep up the great work!

    Cheers guys.
    I'll try and make a point of grabbing the next bit of sunshine to do something with it (really haven't had the chance lately).

    Fingers crossed for the weekend eh?

    All my spare modding time lately has been spent on building a doll's house for either my little girl's birthday next week or (more likely, at this rate) maybe Christmas. :blush:

    i saw somethin similar to this today in a magazine called "atomicpc" its avail in aus and NZ afaik, maybe other places.

    the one in the mag was red and rather than meshing, was like a grilled look, looked quite flash, although im not sure the guy did it himself, or he just bought it that way...

    if i buy the mag i'll try remember o scan the pic in and post here for another spin on this mod.
