Airbrushed Iridescent Red Xbox 360 Faceplate
« on: December 12, 2005, 02:19:00 PM »

Hey guys, I dont have a 360 yet since I dont have the cash to burn but I picked up a faceplate at gamestop to toy around with. I kept it simple for the first job, just a nice coat of iridescent red. The paint has a nifty subtle color shifting property. Its on eBay now and if someone buys it Ill get another and airbrush some graphics onto it.

That thing is sweet... but I wouldn't get it because I'd have wanted the power button, mem door and usb doors matching... but that's just me... beautiful color... love to see an entire 360 this color...

Thanks Guys, Ill do a few more after this one. Ill take orders on one color faceplates but for the time being ill only to premods for the airbrushed ones cause then I am under less pressure. Next comes flames. Probably Metallic Silver, Apple Green Candy, Chrome flake and Pearl Blue flames. Sounds good?

Very nice but i would move this to BST, this is advertising... Very good job on it anyways. What paint did you use looks pretty nice? - Nate

For this one, I used Auto Air, but I use a lot of House of Kolor and occasionally when I feel like going broke; alsa paint.

The meaning of this thread is to show off the faceplate, just letting people know its for sale at the same time. I see what you mean though.

HOK is by far worth it, I once spent $260 on a gallon of chameleon paint but ive done at least a dozen boxes with that paint and still have some left. - Nate

HOK is pretty schweet but Auto Air is more conveinent for me since it doesnt smell so badly and I can use it inside. If you think HOK is expensive, check out alsacorp.com

I once thought of doing A mirror chrome Xbox until I figured out it would cost me around $200
