I'm happy with it. I work at a used games/movies/music store, and when I showed one of my managers the paint jobs I put on that SEGA Genesis I posted, as well as my PS3, he literally gave me an Xbox and told me to work on it. This is my finish product. It's not perfect, but I like it a lot, and it's probably my best yet. The camera really makes small imperfections stand out. It looks awesome in person. Thanks for checking it out.

Wow, excellent work! I think it's just as good as the Genesis you did a while ago. The color scheme works great as well.

I'm not the biggest fan of the white/blue combo with the green logo, but the whole package looks very well done. Very professional.

What type of paint do you use? is it airbrushed? and do you paint it with all the electronic components inside? My mate runs a spray painting business and he's always looking for new ideas. Would be great if I could pass him on some details. I use Krylon Fusion (for plastic) paint. It makes the whole job so simple. No primers needed, no chipping, no bullsh*t. It's pretty cheap, too. I think I pay a little more than $4 a can for it, which is alright with me. I do not paint with the electronic components inside, no. I completely take the system apart and remove all of the guts as to not damage anything. I even went as far as covering the fan ducts with extra masking tape to keep it totally away from any paint. And to everyone else, thanks a lot. I love getting feedback. The guys at my work were blown away. Also, I don't mean to break any hearts, but I had no idea what the flag of Scotland looked like when I decided on a color scheme. But hey, it's still cool, right? Come on! Thanks guy.

I like it a lot. If I had one complaint it'd be the tray. I think it would have looked a lot better had it got a paint job as well.

I thought the tray would stand out if it stayed black, but I see what you mean, I guess it's just too out of place for some. And yea, I Googled the flag of Scotland and was pleasantly surprised.
