Hi Guys  :P
Today I got the SG back from the paint shop - and what can I say - blue metallic rules  :D.
Before the paint shop I thought about redoing the SG & PCE Logo on the front of the console in silver metallic but it looks GREAT even without the logos  - so now I think to just leave it like that  8).

The power switch sticks out like a sore thumb, but it's not bad overall.  I'd like it even better with matte paint and logos (black or a darker shade of blue).

It's not a bad color, but it looks cheap (or something) without the logos.

The SGX looks like it would do well with a two color paint scheme.  Have the main body one color, and the fakeler bolts and accents another color.

Thanks
@ BlueBMW
I'm thinking about a 2 colour scheme right now :). Blue metallic & silver metallic.
Example picture - excuse my poor graphic programm skills ;).
The Super Grafx & PC Engine writings will be in the style of the original of course  :D.


@turbogrfxfan
I don't have a extra controller for the SG (and I use hacked controllers and an arcade stick anyway). No problems with the slot.

Personally, I'm not feeling it. 

I'd like for someone to really make it look like an engine.  Something along the lines of what necro was saying - like a dark matt gray as a base color, and another matching color for the bolts/fins.

And yeah, I think the logos definitely need to come back too.

As others already stated, it's a shame you couldn't mask out the SGFX logo while it was painted. That would have been much more awesome.

For my taste it also looks way too shiny = little bit cheap. A more mat/rough surface would have looked better imo.

After nearly 2 months of waiting for the "Airbrush-guy" (and he said "it would take only 1-2 weeks"  :x) today I finally got it back  :D.
