Looks awesome! Also big ups for having the balls to mod something that half the world still can't get ahold of, paid off. 8)

Personally I love how everyone is so into modding stuff nowadays, I know that somewhere some guy has just paid hundreds of dollars for something, attempted to mod it, and completely f&*ked it up. :twisted: (I only laugh cos 5 years ago that person would have almost definitely been me lol)

How are you gonna go about the markings/labels?

Thanks, yeah, I thought if it went wrong I could always take it to a paint shop and get them to do a proper job :-). For the markings I'm just going to add some lines using transfers I found in a model store and then clear coat laquer over the top to protect the paint and transfers, will probably only put a few on the levels for the faders, don't really need names and stuff as I know what each button does, and I like the minimal look, keeps it clean, and uncluttered.

Going to eventually get some nicer fader caps, and spray the knobs all grey too.

hehe, it's a wooden concertina wall/door, the pics were on an iphone, so it doesn't look too great, it looks quite cool in real life :-)

Honestly my first thought was "wtf?!?", but together with the snow and the white monome it all makes sense and looks beautiful. Good job!
