i know these dont show the actual print since i paint everything but here it is. i got my first pi and had to set it up right away with octopi and hook it up to the printer. i didnt really get a chance to play with it at all so i just ordered another one. of course i needed a case for it. this is the same case as my first one, i just painted it differently. i laid out the design in CoredDraw X7 then cut the masking on my vinyl cutter. i primed, airbrushed the design and clearcoated it. the case can be found here.

Yep, "designer" is an understatement. Artist would be a more accurate term, only he's the rare kind that are good at both the artistic AND technical side of things.

What surprised me is how young you look. I always imagined you as a grumpy old man kind of guy for some reason. Sorry, Jim.
