Hi everyone!

I am posting this on the 2 June 2012 from the Dessau Boombox meeting!
Not possible you say? Yes it is! What I have with me is my finished Conion C100 BTTF! :w00t:
Holy crap! It worked! :w00t:
I am really back in February to take some pics of the progress because I forgot that back then (or for you right now) ;-) .
I remember that was a tough job - I got a special plastic filler but it did not fill up big chips on the case so i had to carve every missing chip out of plastic and glue it in there. This took me one whole sleepless night.
It was cool though because I was constantly high from the spray paint :lol: .
The main was finished on friday but I probably did not take pics of it immediately so it might take a little longer since I do not want to waste Plutonium for just travelling around here.
The Mr. Fusion add on still has his problems.
I can tell you a few cool things though but Doc Brown told me I must not do that - it is not good and so and so on...
Well, I guess I will have to let you wait for more pics. I remember once it was finished I did a write up and took enough pics so my self from the past (hah, your future!) can take care of that.
I just thought you might enjoy some pics. :-)

At first I was.... "BTTF?"

and then I was.... " 1.21 Gigawatts!!"

and then I was..... :morepics:

and than I said...."Back to the Future!!" :thumbsup:
More pics about to come ;-)

You are the one that must not look too close at my paintjob though :lol: .
I am quite pleased but it was the first time I worked with metallic paint and it is NOT as easy as I thought :lol: .
Second coat of *color going to be revealed* comes tomorrow and then clear for extra shine :cool:

What I can already say: A matte black back cover lookes nothing but DOPE :drool: (but also needs two coats for perfection :lol: )

And for your 1.21 Jigowatts: ;-)

Gigga-watts:

[ Image ][ Image ]

I don't get it :dunce:
I think I do.. the first one is Jigga? and the second one is Watts.. Naomi Watts?
AAAHH! Light bulb goes on now :lol: . I had no idea who Jigga is but could maybe have guessed Naomi Watts...ah well. :-)

The new VU meters are the result of around 3 hours graphic program btw :yes: . I have a complete new trim ready too which is going to be printed on vinyl and then just glued over the original aluminum ;-) . I also hope to add some light effects to it but the technical part is second :yes: .

Back cover: DONE!!!!! :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

I don't know what you think but in my opinion this is a huge step forward because:
1. The paintjob looks good :w00t:
2. The way I made those decals was darn easy but they still look professional :cool:

Okay, ready for some action?
There you go;
