Any Suggestions on a Custom Xbox 360 Case?

[Air Effex]

Anyone have any suggestions on what I should paint an Xbox 360 case? I just got an HDMI case in and I have no idea what to do. haha Help?

[Variation-XBA]

I'm going to go with the obvious answer of an XBA case

[Air Effex]

Haha, maybe. I just want to do one that would do well on ebay. Im pooooorrr haha

How about a custom AC / DC console?

[Air Effex]

That looks sweet, Im not going to lie haha. Okay, I may just have to do that

i bet the XB addist case would actually do pretty well. im sure there is more than one member here who would want to add it to their collection.

Not to mention there are actual xbox addicts lol

[Air Effex]

Haha, point taken. What images should I use?

Resident Evil 5 might be a good one to do if your looking to make some money, with the demo coming out soon a lot of people are talking about it. A case would do really well IMO.

I hate to burst your bubble Air Effex, but to tell you the truth, unless your mod is far and above anything accomplishable by most case-modders, you won't sell much higher over retail on eBay. On top of the obvious, not wanting to spend extra on an investment with little return beyond aesthetics, people are still very skittish about Xboxes sans-warranty, as they should be, with the failure rate being theoretically speaking, 100%.

Custom boxes for folks who want custom work done, that's where the money is. Hopefully you're attempting to do this for some money after you've already done it for a hobby, otherwise the majority of potential customers will turn you up for someone with more experience.

However, if you do mod for funsies, post the best photos of your previous work, and cross your fingers. I suggest the Buy/Sell/Trade section of Xbox-Scene for a "now taking requests" thread.

Best of luck, and happy modding!

I have sold several customized cases at a good price most exceeding $100, but it is just a hobby for me, I don't see myself doing it as a career at all.

[Air Effex]

I was thinking Human Giant maybe

[OBL infad3ll]

never heard of it, but signed stuff is awsome!

[Air Effex]

Yeah it is, something about autographs makes me love it, no matter who signed it haha. By the way, I made a BSG set because so many people wanted me to make it again, so its on ebay here is a picture:

[Air Effex]

Oh yeah, I forgot I even made this Beatles faceplate so I just tossed it up for $0.99 haha

Anyone else get wood? Anyone??

That show is kicking my @$$! Last week's episode was nuts and I've been counting the minutes until Friday.

I'll have a PM off to you soon (hopefully tonight) about my case - I think I finally have everything ready!

[Air Effex]

It is decided, I am going to do a Brian Posehn 360 case and he said he would sign it haha

[Hurr0]

Sending you a message Air Effex, quick questions on pre-order..

I know you've done the Dark Knight (Batman&Joker) but how about some other heroes.

Iron Man (sequel coming out 2010)
Hulk
Ghost Rider
Wolverine (coming out in May)
Superman (sequel coming out 2011)
Wonder Woman
Justice League (coming out 2011)
The Avengers (coming out 2010) along side Iron Man


The Lost Boys
G.I.JOE (coming out in August)
Transformers (coming out 2010)
Star Wars (You've see my Darth) I sold that sucker for $450

or How about any SPORT TEAM.

I would love a Detroit Red Wings Case & Faceplate that looked awesome. They have 11 Stanley Cups and you could intergrate that into it. Then I could get my gameroom complete with all sports stuff.

He's already done a great wolverine console
