The Second DS












Well, here it is... My second DS! If you read my first post, then you know this guys history. If you didn't, you can go read it or you can just read the next sentence. My friend gave me his DS when mine broke and so I customized it after my favorite DS game, The World Ends With You. See, that was easy! Anyway, I have no "making of" pictures for this one, since it's already done. But, you can still drool over the completed work. Actually, don't drool. I hear it's bad for your keyboard.

There are a few things I'd like to point out about this particular DS. First, it's done entirely with red and black Sharpie pens with a final coat of Krylon gloss acrylic spray. There are two reasons for this: A) at the time that I was working on this, I had no money for paints, B) I realized that Sharpie, when used on plastic and double-coated, provides some pretty neat effects. The second thing I'd like to point out is that you cannot see the aforementioned effect in these pictures. I'll get a picture of that up soon. The last thing I'd like to point out is: it's done entirely in Sharpie. In other words, not an easy feat. That's a lot of marker, people.
