The theme I may attempt on my G4 DA

I like the black w/ silver. The red looks odd to me.

cool look anyways!

John

I like the silver a lot better, although the red is nice too.

i like the black/silver look. go for it man

but then again, i want all my stuff to stand out...

EDIT: actually, it would give it the HAL9000 look with the red...

i still think the black and silver looks better. They red seems out of place....

black/silver is definatly better

Change the silver to a Cobalt Blue and That would look cool..

Thats almost exactly what I did with my DA
except I did mine in white. Make sure you take everything off that is going to be painted and do a good job with prep, primer etc. If you are going to paint. The front and back look pretty cool if you give them a gloss finish.

yeah gloss black is the plan with krylon fusion so that no primer will be necessary I plan to put the black paint on the inside of acrylic to achive that ultimate deep black mirror look the buttons chromed the apple still undecided anyway will keep every body updated with pictures and progress when I start painting hey i came up with another possible theme see below

and for the coblat blue fan

just wondering why no has resp0onded to the designs it has been 36hrs since I posted them just curious hopeing I haven't offened any one

i would like to see black/yellow i likt that combo but some will not. the black/blue is not bad but i would like black/silver or black/yellow

Lets see the finished product.. and match the leds to the colour you choose!

for me the black / red combo is my favourite. with matching led's in the front panel off course

thx for the comments guys I hope to recieve the actual machine to be painted to today 3/21/06 though depending on fedex it may be tomorrow then I can get down to paint btw does anyone know of dealer for PACTRA POLYCARB PAINT (PAC) in Jacksonville, FL I belive this will result in the best looking paint job

hi there, interesting concept for a paint job!! would totally rock out

Now...
I like the idea of using a color like red, blue, or whatever on the apple logo. As a design guy I think that if you use an accent color somewhere in your color scheme you should carry it into a couple of the other details too-- like the power and reset buttons,cd-rom button, or the transparent handles it would really kick it up a notch this makes your eye kinda say, "ok, this color belongs here"

If you're looking for transparent paint there's a couple of ibook mods here on applefritter that use stuff you could use.

is there any result already? i would really like to see the finished product!

I finished the paint job here are some pictures

Did you paint the inside or the outside of the plastics?

I Painted the outside as the removing the paint on the inside would have been very hard

Oh. It still looks very good! Nice job!

Looks pretty nice. One detail that I noticed that seeems a bit off is that the screws on the side panels are plain. You might try a P-Shop edit to see what it would look like if you had gone over the screw heads with the red paint.

it looks nice as is. the screws on the side give it a flair . but i still like black/yellow or black/silver better. but it looks great and looks better than i thought
