Well , since iv seen how DS paints their HAFS i decided to take it upon myself to try to paint mine. i didn't wanna do the whole thing, but to get a feel for what it would look like i took some pictures of the extra floppy drive cover that i had to see.
tell me what you think

Question  Curioius
What paint are you using? Are you doing a prep work before applying the paint?

haha no prep work or anything. i chose rustloium for that specific peice. but when i do my actual cause im going to use duplicolor and then use a clear coat on top of it to prevent scratches.

the metal from the grill takes the paint really well. i dont see the need to prime or sand it. from what i'v gathered it works just fine.

make sure you use a lot of thin coats, it will come out better that way.
