My Turbo Grafx phone!
« on: June 23, 2013, 08:42:18 PM »
Just thought I'd share what I did to my phone.  I hope it lasts, it's supposed to be vinyl.  I hope ya'll like.  I've never had a phone that had a case I even remotely liked, so I did some Googling & got this made up specifically for my phone.

Here's the front, I took a whole bunch of Bonk/PC Genjin comic strips & lined them up along the sides along with some other random Bonk pics, & at the bottom is mostly the cover for Bonk 3 CD.  On the top I put the standard green adventure label, but the green I had when making the template didn't quite match up with the Turbo green.


And the back, IIRC, it's from Bonk's Return.  It seemed like a nice good big pic of Bonk, & it looks close enough to the Jp style(actually kinda seems like a mix of the US & Jp styles), & then added the TurboGrafx label.

Awesome!  My wife had a custom case made of one of her paintings and it still looks great after 4-6 months of use.

I'm more curious how many people will ask you, what that "baby" is on your phone.

Nice job on the vinyl!

Haha, indeed!

I made it on skinit.com.  It's pricey, about 20 bucks IIRC.  There are other sites that offer similar ways to customize your phone that are cheaper, but this one let me customize it myself(with all those mixed pics of Bonk & the adding of the TG logo) rather then just sending them one picture for them to use.

Since I clean carpets for a living, I'm around moister a lot, besides me constantly sweating to death when it's humid, so I should be a good test subject for the longevity of these stickers! :D

TANGENT: I, too, sweat to death and have learned to keep electronics away from the Inferno known as my flesh. I'm talking RIVERS OF BRINE.
