Custom Paint Job for Lenovo as a Sponsor for the Beijing 2008 Olympics.
The lid was removed form the laptop, prepped, painted red, masked, painted silver, shipped to Olympic athletes for signatures, and then returned for clear coating and reassembly. I believe this was done to 20 laptops for Lenovo.
Custom Paint & Graphics
Approximately 16 were made for NVidia.
A custom World of Warcraft computer tower. I created each side as a unique collage of promotional artwork and fan artwork from the games. I was asked for WOW graphics repeatedly and generated quite a few variations and designs.

Promotional artwork I created to sell the concept of Laptop Design. These samples utilized stock art images and were precursors to some storyboards for a series of online banner ads. Although the concepts were well liked the budget for the photo shoots was not approved.
A computer tower side panel would often be used to demonstrate the capabilities of the dye sublimation process we used on metal parts.
The parts were powder coated white. The graphic was then printed to fabric and heat transferred into the powder coat. The final product was scratch resistant, wouldn't peal, and looked great. Unfortunately the majority of computer parts are plastic and couldn't withstand the nearly 400 degree temperatures necessary for dye to sublimate.
At the time I created a lot of custom patterns for various projects. This particular organic pattern was influenced by traditional Irish folk art, agriculture, and music notes.
Promotional artwork supplied by EA. Hardware supplied by Ideazon.
Aside from the XGamerPC logo, this entire design was created from scratch. Making the diamond plate pattern was educational, but nothing like trying to recreate lightning.
