Gloss = fingerprints all ober it.If it is plastic: glossy = cheap
If you want it to be glossy and good looking, use a different material than plastic.
Since we are stuck with plastic: don't make it glossy.
Sandblasted surface look is much better.

@Neelix @Eight Bit Which software do you use to create the renders ? Blender ? Where could we find the source files to play with please...? Thanks !
I cheated. All my "renders" were actually created in GIMP by manipulating the colour layers in the PSD file that erico posted in page 9 of that thread. (mostly with the Colourise function) I got my best results by adding a touch of noise to the colour layer (Saturation and Value noise IIRC) which I think gives it a slightly more realistic look
We have to do that anyway. The current company is only doing the clear ones and the one that will be doing the coloured ones doesn't have the moulds yet.Let's get the clear cases first before we start asking for samples of colored ones.
That's what I meant. Unless I misunderstood @levi, we won't be seeing what he is asking about until after those clear ones are made and the molds are moved. I can't say I am confident there won't be a hold up somewhere during all of that.We have to do that anyway.

The rim from the lid top part I think wouldn't matter much. The inner part directly around the screen does.I do like the idea of having that dark red around the screen. It's dark enough that it's almost as good as black for making the colours on the screen pop out.
Yes, that is what I was referring to at the time, as I recall now.The rim from the lid top part I think wouldn't matter much. The inner part directly around the screen does.
Nope, not everyone is clear about their choiceThe choice is clear for everyone !
