Hardware Special Edition GBAtemp Wii

[OrR]

As you may or may not have seen in the competition thread, I have painted the GBAtemp mascot onto the side of my Wii.

She's a beauty, isn't she?

I think it turned out really well. Still the same old paint texture I have on my DS but there are some advantages with the Wii: The color doesn't get damaged because I don't touch it all the time. Also, I didn't paint the whole shell so it doesn't destroy the overall appearence but instead enhances it quite nicely.

Here you can see many more images of the whole production process:

At least it wasn't Lost in Blue

 

[ndsbob]

i would like to see it painted as your nds :-P

 

[Mr.Curlynose1]

All I have to say is that you've improved since last time.

 

[[M]artin]

Nice! I likes the style!

BTW, when Lost in Blue 2 comes out later this year will you paint another DS, pwetty pwease?

 

[jumpman17]

Am I the only one who hasn't seen your DS yet?

 

[iza]

yea.. you are jumpman...
i'm all honestly, it was a brave and noble atempt. but turned out pretty bad.

There's one on the link he gave above.
Then clic on the blue picture on the right and on the 'more' just below.


Anyway, I like your logo.
the lineart is just fine.

When I read OrR and Wii in the same topic title I instantly thought "WAHOO! LAUGHS!" but unfortunantely you actually did a pretty okay job

Maybe. I'd love to but I can't really afford another one. I need to buy a Lite some of these days and get one of them nice replacement shells and then I might do it. Would be more interesting to do a Phoenix Wright theme, though. I don't like monotony.

My next project is my red Wiimote & Nunchuk shells, though. They are preordered already. When they arrive, I plan to pimp them with a Red Steel theme. Let's see how that turns out...

Nice work man! Maybe the new mascotte on the other side?

 

[jumpman17]

I just looked at your DS...

I'm so sorry...

 

[directive0]

anyone else notice how closely the shape of the Wii matches that of the original gameboy? I'd like to see someone paint their wii like that...

Nah, I don't like it enough, yet.

I'll probably save it for my other favourite community or something else.

Nice idea!

I've got a surprise for you: That someone will be you!

Now get to work!

 

[shtonkalot]

Seriously OrR, don't nintendo products have some sort of restraining order against you? Not allowed to be within 30 feet or something..

Nah, really I like it. I wouldn't do it to mine but at least it didn't move me emotionally in a bad way like your DS did.

Hurray for OrR the Mod God!!

 

[mr_blonde_88]

ahhh, the infamous DS

that was awesome dude

 

[DEF-]

Sweet paintjob man, great work

 

[Psyfira]

Turned out much better than the DS

No more metallic paint, ever!

Btw to all those who don't like the DS, I hope they realise that with all of the fame it's gathered it must be worth loads on EBay. Not that he'd ever sell it, but it's a nice thought

Top job old man!

..also..

Who's this "other community" you're talking about...
.. you're not cheating on us are you...

well, are you...
