Interesting choice of color

love the choice of colour John, well done mate looks great

Now that is GREEN!...don't lose it in the grass!

Yeah thought I'd use a nice subtle colour but then thought no, let's make it stand out a bit. Looked through my cans of paint and picked the greens. Dark green on light green using a fat cap and this turned up !!! Not to bad I thought. I then used the fat cap as the ariel tip just to Finnish it off.

great choice of colour imo it really compliments the box

john82 - 2013-04-29 08:23

Cheers lav, I like it to.

I like it so much !!

Especially the details (A+B) at the cassete doors

and the Philips SUPER tandem graffiti !

Instant favourite of mine !

VERY good job John.

+The tip of the antenna (aerosol cap)

Cool Deech, thanks pal. The A-B are a bit ropey but not to bad. I've seen your into your stencils mate and do a fine job with them. The SUPER Tandem turned out better than I thought as it was quite small. Glad you like it

Wow...this is an awesome job! I love the antenna tips!!!

 

This box would make Shrek proud

Cheers Brutus. The ariel tip is a cool feature, especially as its the one I used to spray the unit with so the greens are on that also. Gotta look for a new project now !!!

Oh yeah!!!! I could do with your brand of skillz ;-)

john82 - 2013-05-09 06:26

Brand of skillz ?? Anything I can do to help pal just drop me a PM.

Definitely second the awesome outstanding color.  Bright colors on BBX's or Walkman add so much to the impression and attention they get.   Looks great.   Nice to see someone brave the modification path.  Can be fun.   Can never go wrong with Green my fav color 

john82 - 2013-05-09 08:41

I'm a sucker for green also. I did this all purples to start with and didn't like it. I'm looking out for a couple of cheap boxes now to liven up and add some colour to. Cheers JE
