    well... I'm about to be ready to paint my case and I don't know which colors I'll take...

    of course, I'll paint the other panel and the whole case, I'll rip the case apart to paint the inside piece by piece.

    ok so here's the problem... I want to put a background color for the case and I'll use an airbrush to apply another color on the tribals that will go from solid to the background color. Also I want to use the tribal paint for the inside too...

    now I can't decide myself on the colors to use... One thing I need to say: I'll get the paint custom made...

    Anyone can help me on that one? I tought of a black with silver flakes with dark red with black flakes for the tribals and the inside... but I don't know... :D

    plz give me some color advices plz :blah:

    thx for your time

    sounds like a good combo, however, make sure theres a good difference in the red and black so that the contrast is obvious. you dont want people thinking that your case is all black. my .02 :D

    I'm painting one of my cases matt black (non-shiney black), with a high-gloss black (very shiny black) design over the top. Looks pretty sweet on the tester I did. The contrast between the finishes makes for a very interesting effect.

    Colors are a personal choice, so I'll stay out of that, but one thing about the metallics, if you use them, don't sand the last coat before you clearcoat. because of that, it's way harder to get a metallic with a mirror finish.
