Updating, cause I havent.

Posted on December 19th, 2006 by phiber811, under John, Modding News, New Mods, main.

Its been a while since I updated with some real meat and potatoes kinda stuff. Mostly I’ve been babbling about this or that, without any real substance to show for it. Well, that changes today. I’ve got a few minutes over lunch, and I’m going to put up some recent work I’ve done. Lets have a look.

Blue Purple Fade.

This imac G5 was painted for the daughter of my employer. She wanted blue and purple, she got blue and purple. I used the Auto Air Nightmare Blue, and Cheap Wine purple. Its a pretty simple fade, but it looks damn good.

Black Flame iMac.
I painted this one for the son of my employer. The boss asked for pearl black with flames, and thats what he got. Its a simple flash flame job, but I really like how the pattern came out.

The Copper Fade Project.
Since my shop is offering mods as an option now, they felt that we needed a display. Well, they got one. One of the guys at our design firm came up with a reference for what he was thinking, and the powers that be selected a color range. The boss and I picked the final colors, and I got to work. This masking job and the flame imac are where my giant roll of masking tape came in so handy. Anyway, the shells are a pearl copper and a pearl russet.

LimeBurst iBook.
Before my buddy Jim moved to Las Vegas, I built him an iBook, and painted it as a surprise. He was definitely surprised. I shot it with the sparkle toxic green, and detail black around the apple logo and the edges. It’s gorgeous in sunlight!
