To open things

This is a Straight Color Mod for the Fractal Design Arc Mini R2

Its not about whats under the Hood with this one, rather whats on Top.

By that i mean the quality of paint to this case and the Unique Color.

No Ungodly Hardware to look at, Just some Beautiful Kandy paint from

House of Kolor. Lets Begin with an Overall look at the Case as it sits in my

make shift Photo Studio:)














Nothing Special Yet, Lets tear it down :huh:






After this step comes....Striping off the Black Powder coat. I use my Local
Powder Shop Acid Tanks for this. Beats the Hell out of Sanding. The New Feet arrived at the same time panels were done.:D












The Surface is Ready for Epoxy Primer. For this i use House of Kolor KD3000 Black. Creates a Pristine Surface for the Base Coat.








Ready for some Kandy? House of Kolor "Brandywine Kandy"



Candy Paints are Translucent and Rely on the Color thats underneath for them to work. I choose Galaxy Grey Metallic for this Project. In these Photos you can really see how it shines through the Kandy. The Clear coat also enhances
the shine and Depth of the Job.








Now that some Kandy is Down and Cleared. Lets look at the not so impressive
Hardware for the Project. The work for this system is File Storage only.
No need for anything Fancy.


















Like i said, Nothing Special. Now to make things Interesting. Lets Bring in my
Airbrush. Iwata's HP-C Plus. A real WorkHorse of a Brush.










I use House of Kolor for all Paint in this Build. I use Airsick Stencils and of course the Iwata.


FIRST UP...




Some Follow up Photo's to those Graphics..












Catching you up on my Current Status as it sits waiting for More











Updates coming soon :)
