I tried to make a stencil for the "GENESIS" logo, but I think it looks better that way.

I like the original Famicom type scheme there, but you're missing an NES!

I know! I've got three American Nes's all stacked up by my TV, I think one of them is going to be next.

As soon as I get the LED's I'm going to set them up so that they shine through the vents

. And maybe the controller inputs also?

Those look great. What kind of paint did you use? Does anyone have a guess of how much these would sell for, I am in need of money and this would be a great way to make it.

I used plastic safe spray paint from the Depot, I would charge for: Shipping both ways, the cost of the console (if I bought it), paint, tools (brushes, detail paint (Testors), tape), plus like 30~50 bucks for a profit.
And not to steal vskids idea (I was thinking of it anyway), I'll paint anybodys systems for $30 plus price for all item above. It should total like $60ish.

Your fine, I was just wondering if it was a good idea. It must be good if we both thought of it.

I could be very profitable, but try it on your own systems before you start a business

You live in Utah, Joe?
I tried spray painting my N64 with some krylon chrome paint. I only used one layer without primer and it wore off the controller and always felt sticky.
