Hey, sure. It´s very simple: I used spray paint from Edding. Edding Permanent Spray 5200. You can use other brands, I just like the fact that these are matte/semi-matte. They are quite pricey, tho. Grey color is Antracite (I believe) and then I used yellow for bits and bobs. I didn´t prime the case at all; I just washed it and made sure there was no grease on it. Then simply paint, apply scratches with steel brush or whateven gives the effect you´re after. The paint sticks pretty well to the case, and since the case is stationary, and you´re going for a weathered look, there´s really no need to prime. No need to credit me :) Just glad I could be of inspiration. And FWIW the case still looks the same 2 years later, so it worked out fine. Happy painting! Lasse :)

More pics of the build

Hey guys, working on my second Hackintosh project, and just finished the paintjob and visual side of it. Not sure what to call it: I was inspired by sci-fi movies (Aliens (1986) in particular as the attentive reader might notice). Perhaps simply "BauerCorp Mod" or similar. Anywho, this is the build so far: (Software setup still remains) • Primary use: Creative work, video editing • Corsair C70 case • Inno3D iChill GTX 1080 TI • ASUS Maximus X Hero 370 (Wi-fi, Bluetooth) • i7 8700K • 32 GB HyperX RAM • Samsung 500GB 850 EVO M.2 SSD • (7 SSD drives total > Will be transferred from current machine when everything else is ready. Same with lighting.) • PSU: Corsair RM750X • CPU fan: Noctua NH-D15 Let me know what you think, and if you´re interested I´ll post more about the build/painting process itself. Thanks :)
