You should get a silverburst finish on it.

Thx for all the feedback guys . I realize the sides will probably be deathly hard to sand but the thing is they're kinda scratched up/chipped and I think in the long run it'll be better to just redo the whole thing. Black body binding does sound metal though. Anyway I should get around to sanding the sides off tomorrow hopefully. Can't today because of stupid honors precalc homework...

[jim777]

I would think you could sand the sides with a drill, if you could get something round with sandpaper on the sides to use with it. A round chunk of wood like a TP roll with sandpaper glued to the sides, attached to a headless bolt or something.....maybe a 2 inch piece of wood with a bolt through it, so that the bolt head was on one side with the threaded bit coming out the other, put the threaded bit into the drill and off you go. The wood and a bolt should cost less than a dollar each at a hardware store if you have a drill already, and you're done. Or not But if it works it will sand the cutouts right quick with far less effort on your part.

Id say a dark pearl blue or green looks awesome with the cosmo

for my final group project in Comp Sci 335, we did java networked hearts, and we all dressed up in suit and tie to demonstrate it to the class, and we made the whole thing my little pony themed. we had the theme song playing loud the whole time on a loop, and there was no way to turn it off. shit was epic

good choice. or even go nice n 80's with a red body and black binding.

[Randomist]

matte black over matte red and "relic" the paintjob slightly

or fluro, any fluro colour, maybe with black "binding"

or make it glow in the dark... i have seen the paints out there for this

[Crescent2k6]

yeah the glow in the dark idea definetly sounds cool. Right now i think i'm debating between white, looks/feels-like-rock-stuff, some color combination of mystic dream, or glow in the dark.

[Celiak]

Can you make it so the glow in the dark finish is opaque, so you could see the grain still? I think that would be awesome.
