This gameboy is so freaking awesome! A friend of mine made one and named it Fallout Boy also. It was dyed dark army green and had a weird pattern on it that happened due to the way the dye settled it looked really badass. I also have one that I named the Fallout Boy because it basically became the gameboy I use to test my lighting ideas. Its dyed brown and has a really funky pattern on it because I forgot to stir the dye lol. I dyed it early in the morning when I was half asleep and honestly just forgot. Heres a pic of it:

And another in the dark:

These are pretty old..at least a year now, a lot has been done to this thing since these were taken. I tried to sell it once but it never sold so I kept it and went nuts with it. Theres lights all over this freaking thing now. A lot of memories with this gameboy. Its the first gameboy I grab when Im about to try something new.

So welcome to the Fallout family lol. I think yours kills both of ours.

Basically Im going to be focusing on unique sets instead of big orders.

@Jolly you just have to be careful with them man. I mean think of them as a jacket you have to take to the dry cleaners or something. Its cloth on a case that you cnt really throw in a washing machine...juat have to be careful like you would with your dads 30year old suit that youre borrowing for a wedding or something lol. The up keep isnt hard. Its no harder than trying to keep your gameboy from getting scratched. If you care enough about it itll become a routine.

Also if you ever do get any stuff on it like something sticky or whatever i discovered the other day a windex wipe and the lint roller work wonders. Upkeep is just like a tophat or bowler hat in this sense.

Me laying everything out at once may have made it seem like a major burden but its really not i promise. Its also a great way to liven up a messed up paint job or anything like that. Also the leather ones i have planned will be a lot more limd when it comes to cleaning. They will be extremely durable compared to the fluffy fabric used on the original set.

Theres not really a link to "more info" I mean kitsch sells them in his site which direct link to them is here

But as for a "How to take care of your Cloth Boy" blog, or anything of that nature, theres no such thing.

As for more info on what fabrics can be used or anything design wise or ordering a more personalized one just message me and ask and Ill tell you if it can or cant be done. But for crazy personalized ones the price will be higher than the retail price at Kitschs shop.

However there are other fabric i will be experimenting with in the near future that will limited run exclusives. And by limited i mean 5 or less because the materials being used will be very durable very expensive fabrics such as real leather and maybe even alligator skin..but thats just a maybe..not making any promises there lol. There is a lot of interesting things to come.

But yea just ask me anything and Ill answer the best I can man.

I love how the led sticks out! Thats a nice touch.

When paintinf a gameboy pocket or a custom kitsch case on the inside, use Silly Putty onthe outside of the case to cover the speaker holes. Helps cut down on tacky dripping through the holes.

They were a gift from a big deal I did for someone here, not saying who because Im not sure if they want that info out or not. But yea it short, random throw-ins with a deal/order we did together.

@OP deathstar, PM me as a reminder. Im currently on the road about to go on a date with my lady. Message me what youd offer for whatever or whatever you wanna do.
