Its automotive base and clear coat. Painted with airbrush and spray gun. Clear coat sanded with 2500 grit sand paper and buffed out with 3 different buffing pads and 5 different polishing pastes. At the end it was waxed.

Just amazing. I like the design as well. How on earth did you paint it so beautifully. You should really put up a tutorial because that is masterful work. Congratulations.

BTW: Did you hand paint the design? How did you save all the logos? And... :shock: :shock:

Very nice. So shiny and candy like. I'd be a little concerned with the controller being slippery, but that looks amazing.

What is your favorite design then? I would like to see it.

zoki64 - It's really awesome! This is the best console modification I have ever seen (as far as I can remember right now). I am happy to see another Slav on this site :) And even happier to see him doing awesome thigs like this one :)

BTW: Don't you want to share a guide to create something like this? ;-)
I've got no signature.

The checkered floor similar to SMB3 goes perfect with the photos. That paint job is amazing, you could make some really good money painting systems and such with badass skills like that. Really nice job though, and the Nintendo purple color goes very well with the overall look as well.

Very very nice.

Can you do a custom paint job on my car?

Yes. How did you save all the logos?

Awesome job, man. Probably hands down the best console paint job I've seen.
