ok, here it is. I have decided that the outside of the computer case will be airbrushed. so please show me what you guys\girls like. no suggestion is a bad one, it's your opinion and your opinion matters to me, I might like it so much, that it will be painted on the outside of the case. so please help me out, out there and send some of your favorite pic's

If your case is windowed, I would try to keep the color scheme of the painting (brushwork?) similar to the hardware, that could look very cool probably. I am a sucker for dragons or phoenixes myself. I always wanted to see a high quality version of this: http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa242/cc_68333/phoenix-1.jpg and it might be quite good on a case with a black/yellow or black/red scheme.

EDIT: Ah, you are the one going for those cobber wrapped tubes etc. In that case, I would probably go with something in the general steampunk colour scheme. Brown, cobber, grey, silver, brownish orange and red.
Perhaps something like this: http://www.clubchopper.com/forums/attachments/paint-tech/35777d1307064620-toss-up-couple-more-pieces-my-airbrushing-steampunk1.jpg
A steampunk dragon is also possible:

yes, I am the guy with the rads. to be honest when it comes to drawing, dragons are my strong spot. where as I can only draw the face of one girl that I knew way back when I was 14 years old, must have had to draw her face 5000+ times before I could actually get it to look like her. and that covers the totality of my face drawing ability. so I don't thank that I will be doing any faces for this one, but I like your dragons, that I can do.

no there will be no case window, this is the reason for the image being placed on the outside of the case. I thank that it will look nicer than a window, what do you think?

It depends. I really like to see the actual hardware, at least if the colors of it etc. fit together. But I know a lot of people think hardware looks silly and would rather that the case is just cool. It is also possible to have both of cause.
Here is a professional at work with the colors: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=iOoAA1KmmlY#t=567s There are a bunch of case build/water cooling stuff as well as some great case reviews on that channel by the way.

But airbrushing is a cool way to go as well, if I had skills in that direction myself, my current case would look a lot more interesting and dragon-ish

here is how you do this***

[toolmaker_03]

so here is what the water cooling case looks like, I will be attaching the radiator case to this

I will bolt the radiator case to the far side plate, not the one that gives you access to the MB.
