Honest opinions please.

I took it to work and painted it, with, black base coat, light coats of blue special effects blue pearl, and special effects gold pearl around the edges.

Sorry about the pics, my camera decided to pack up!
LOL

Yeah i know, my camera on my phone suks balls. We dont have the elite 360 over here yet, but to my recolection the elite will not have a matching black HDD or matching side vents (not that it makes much difference mind!) :p

I assume you airbrushed correct? and how's the finish? sticky at all? those are some of the fears I've had with painting one on my own.

Yep, painted the black and blue with a normal SATA sraygun with 1.3 nozzle.
Then used just a crappy cheap airbrush for the gold.

Laquered it up with 2 coats of Sikens 2-1 :D
Shiney :cool:

Hmmm... I'm considering LOL

HAHA creepy airbrush.. like the ones for about 20 bucks that you paint model cars with? LMAO I'm sure that was rather nerve racking!
