Recommended Posts

I,m getting the side of my computer case painted by my cousin who is a really good artist, and he said to just tell him what i want and well i have a weapon, pose, face and background picked out now all i need is armor, so does anyone know of a set of armor that would is kinda sexy, and erotic, but not flat out nude, and looks good on the dark elf skin color...

 

preferably a blue and dark-silver my pc is glowing blue and black, and the background sorta looks like a wrath of the litch king

Just make sure that he's using the right kind of paint. Some of the fumes emitted by paints as they aspirate (dry, age) can be harmful to electronics. A paint that is made to withstand temperatures above 100 f is also suggested as some paints can revert to being a liquid, or start to crust up and flake off if exposed to high temps or drastic changes.

 

Your better option would probably be to have him create the picture, scan it into a computer, and bring it to a local graphics shop to have it printed in self-adhering vinyl (similar to what they use for cars and signage on windows). That way, if it starts to fall apart, you can just replace it without having to buy a new case or soak the panel in mineral spirits. However, this might be a bit costly depending on how large it is, the detail, and how much the shop decides to charge you for it.
