[darrenay]

hi guys and galls, just some pics of my antec 1200 case,i stripped the case into parts prepped and put some paint on. this is my first time posting pics, i hope successfully. let me know what you think ??????. i painted it in my workshop where i make furniture out of recycled timber so lucky no dust in the paint, before my accident i used to be a car painter. i just hope the pics come through.

best regards darren

hi airdeano, its celly paint, what thinners are you using with the enamel ? and what ratio paint to thinners /. what gun you using is it hvlp ? will try to help if i can. with enamel i would mix about 50- 60% celly thinners, i havnt used enamel for donkeys years i would either use celly or 2-pack paint.

best regards darren

Dude that's awesome.

Love the combination of colours that you've used. Even Tom might have some affection for Antec if he sees it in white.

thanks for that sheroo, i like the antec 1200 because of its shear size and adaptability, i wanted to put a new system inside, my old socket 775 was due for an update so i thought it was time to re-paint the case. black was a real problem here as i live on a busy-ish road and i could end up dusting the case twice a day. i am glad you like it. i have just got to paint my dvd drive and the gigabyte usb-3 front panel ( blue to match the rest of the front ).

best regards darren

Looks good fella, Im always a sucker for white.

I cant comment on any Antec thread without mentioning my dislike for these though

Kudos on the effort put in though
