    Hi all,
    Here's my last project: the BMO BOY!

    [​IMG]

    I love Adventure Time and this is my tribute to BMO, the robot/friend/home console character :)
    http://adventuretime.wikia.com/wiki/BMO

    BMO naturally resembles a Game Boy and I have been thinking about this project for a long time; to be fair, I have found at least other 2 people have done the same (but I like mine better! xD).

    It's essentially a custom painted (and slightly modded) Game Boy (model DMG-01).

    Parts used:

    • Original case, painted with a spray can (custom colour);
    • Hand made screen cover (out of a 1.2mm board of semi-matte polyester);
    • ASM Retro's Screen cover adhesive;
    • Kitsch-bent's buttons (A, B, Start & Select, DPad);
    • Hand made "fake buttons" (triangle and cartridge eject);
    • ASM Retro's Density Backlight (white);
    • Thursday customs' HEX DMG v1.3 display inverter.


    Work log here:

    Extra features:

    • Custom ROM programmed by yours truly, which displays BMO's cute face;
    • Box art (to be printed and assembled).


    I'm not 100% happy about the screen cover adhesive, and also since I had to manually redo some details on the BMO caption on the sides, the letters' edges aren't very sharp.
    Anyway here are more photos :)
