This is what can happen if you make your coats too thick when painting.
Especially if you don't wait long enough for each coat to dry.

And THIS is what can happen if you try to fix it.

That is all.

Apologies, I should've remembered the title rule.
This was more or less meant to be a general paint (or anything else) screwup thread actually, though. Not Gameboy-specific.

That sucks. I think it's just kinda hard to paint gameboys. I painted my gameboy color silver and it didn't look that good.
