Here is after the window cut notice the rough cut it will get sanded down later this weekend & paint will follow. These are the two images i will airbrush it just will take lots of time chun li picture will be the front of case. The group shot will be for the whole side. Top of case will just be a fireball graphic of ryu's fireball I choose this since its going on the 16th year of street fighter anniversary

Oh man, that is a nice case there, dont ruin her.

That cut doesnt look very straight at all, atleast not in the top right corner. Did you use a jigsaw or something?

Yeah I agree with neo, maybe there is someway that can be fixed. The case does have a lot of potential so keep it up.

I agree. That case is beautiful. Treat her well.

I honestly am not into that street fighter theme, but if you like it, go ahead.

I actually like these so called premod windows, especialy on the aluminum cases. LIke that one. But damn man, those air brushes will take you like a year. I cant wait to see it.

Not my image prefrence but i would like to see you pull it off. Good Luck!!!

yeah, to get those edges straight get a 2" barrel sander. like 5 bucks at Home Depot, Lowes or any hardware store. Slap it on a good and fast drill and smooth the edges. take your time and use a light touch. Zennzzo gave me that tip when working on a case. worked wonders except for up in the corners. Took a 1/4" sanding wheel on my dremel, cranked it up to about a 9 and with a LIGHT touch smoothed out the edge. worked like a charm.

i'm not sure if you've thought of it already but you should add in lighting to create the effect of a fireball or something from the window side. i think that would kick a$$. keep us updated

Me and my friend are going to airbrush it since the group picture will take the most time. In the meantime the new computer will go inside my current blue lighter case when it arrives. When i have finished the airbrushing i will post finished case for everyone to see.
