JuneBUG is Complete! Amiga 600 in Black !
« on: April 27, 2006, 09:38:43 PM »
Ahhh

Well, it isnt exactly complete yet.as I still need to ad a coat of mtte Finish Clear paint. And also actualyl connect the internal CDROM drive.but at least its finally got the CDROM slot internally and its painted.

Notice I spray painted the keys as well..then purchsed keyboard stickers for people who want to translate their keys to another language....in this case, they are ENGLISH/Korean.....only because thats all I could find.

:-)

I will post other pictures soon...plus My VJ gear using the CD32/SX32 Pro.


For PICTURES, just look at my PhotoAlbum here on A.org by clicking on my name...............make sure yuor signed in.


CD32 is actually the best Amiga ever made by Commodore!...

Wow, that is beautiful!  Neat job!

Tell me, can you get a display on the Dell monitor with the A600?

I ask 'cause I'm sitting looking at the same monitor right now and there's an old A600 right at my feet.

hahaha, Thanks.

Yes you can, if you have an RGB to VGA adaptor..........and put the A600 in Productivity/Multiscan mode.............I already tried it with the CD32/SX32 pro and it worked......although it looks like crap in 640x480 as this monitor is 1024 x 768 native.


the picture with the A600 on a wood table is actually a Performance rehearsal of a screen play here in New York that a friend of mine did for her upcoming Film.............I was the SoundFX guy..using the A600 of course :-D    I once and for all was inspired to finally paint this for the actuall performance which is on Friday, as News crews and magazines will be there...and I wanted the A600 to look her best :-D

although I will probably use my CD32/SX32 pro for the actual performance. I will use SCALA MM300, SuperGenSX and DV video moving backdrops hooked up to Two 5000 Lumens Projectors...........WooPee!

@Framiga

Nextel? .... the phone company?  not sure what you mean.  I just purchased regular Spray paint.....Ultra Flat Black...and painted it myself... then placed keyboard stickers on the keys..................and now I have to paint the whole thing, with Clear Paint with a matte finish.....I dont want it to have alot of shine just like the CDTV keyboard. It has a nice non reflective coating.but it does not look too dry either.

I will probably finish painting it on Saturday morning.

 I guess I will post pictures again once its Coated and ready.............Im coating in because I dont want any paint eventually pealing off...nor the keyboard letters to fall off.
 Also I should have a replacement CDROM or DVDRW by then........if not I will get it some other time.

It looks really good! Makes me want to do something similar with my desktop A1200. Is it true that the innards of CDTV keyboards work in an A1200? If so I think it's time to get one and paint my A1200 black :-)

Looks gr8t leirbag. Good work. I always love your amiga hacking. I would leave the case flat black though. NEver was a fan of gloss finish for computers... congrats on the gig. Have fun and break a chip. :)  I'm sure all the press will be there taking pictures of your Amiga and not the performance! LOL

That's the best spray-painted Amiga I've ever seen.  Very nice work.

I tried spraying my A1200 black once and it was such a mess  after the paint had dried I just threw it in the bin.

It seems that some paint formulas chemically bond to plastic better than others.  Maybe he used a laquer based paint.  I hope the clear coat goes well, and the letters don't shrivel.
