The picture was really low quality and it does "POP". I used really cheap wall mart paint to do it.

All I was saying is that it didn't pop like I though it would... not like the clear PIL.

A technique I've been doing for a long time.

The picture was really low quality and it does "POP". I used really cheap wall mart paint to do it. Word to the wise, take all the time in the world to patch up each hole. It's a pain to pick off the unwanted bits of paint and i scratched my gba while doing it.


And i used 70% alcohol to clean my gba.

That's much nicer.
I was going to do a splatter pattern and my logo in purple with a lime green background, and it looks like it'll work pretty well.
Thanks.

Hmmmmm... That's not the result I was expecting.

bit wish made this thread about it a while ago

Yes... yes I am.

Anyway, I'm working with an original Glacier GBA right now, and I was wondering if anybody has painted the inside of theirs. If so; could you post some pics so I can get an idea of what it looks like?
I tried hunting down a completely transparent shell, but had no luck... and if anybody knows where one can be found, I'd really appreciate that too.
