There are a couple more dreamcast paintjobs, and several other custom console paintjobs by this guy on his blog. Check out the blog posts by month on the left side for more of his work. Cool stuff

 

C'est fantastique!
Wish I could paint like that haha
I would kill for that sonic adventure one, and indeed the sonic gamegear and megadrive.
The dead mario chracters are a bit creepy though

 

incredible!!!

 

wow that guy has some serious talent

 

Maybe we can commission him to do a special Geist Force dreamcast...

 

A paint job about a game which can't be played properly on the retail hardware
Oh the irony

 

These are sexy as fuck.

I cannot, for the life of me, think of sexier things.

 

Nice! but we have to send the assembler shock team to france and secure those dreamcasts

If only one hipster takes a look at the Rez one, we're fucked

Having a Dreamcast will be cool, because....."ironic!"

What, you dont believe me? take a look:



And thats with a X360 controller...

 

Hipster girls can be hot, and besides, Sonic IS on 360

 

That, very impressive.

 

the consoles looks very nice, but the controls..meh

 

Those are awesome! They should do an MvC2 one.

 

She has ink. Instant hotness.

Anyway, very nice paintwork there! If that guy sold them he'd make a killing sure.

 

I'd do her, but I still find the Vyse Dreamcast hotter.

 

Those custom paintjobs really don't do anything for me, though I can appreciate that some people love that kind of thing. I once tried painting a Saturn before, only to give up because I couldn't get the finish right (for the record, I was trying to recreate the prototype machine's colour scheme, including the early disc lid text).

Perhaps in the future I'll look into that textured spray paint that feels like concrete, as the original PlayStation 2 has already reminded me of some miscoloured monolith. As a former design and architecture student, it would combine two of my favourites - gaming and "brutalist" movement constructions - perfectly.

By the way, has anyone else ever seen or heard of the Unite Tower (AKA Sky Plaza) in Leeds? I find this university accomodation block so uncannily resembles a vertically-mounted PS2 that I'm sure it must have been a subconscious decision to tap into the student past time of choice... well, at least it was for me! Have a look:

The PlayStation 2 is godugly. One of the ugliest consoles ever.

I always thought this too. Xbox always seemed prettier to me.

 

What makes you think of it as ugly? Is it the fact that the top portion and the bottom are out of proportion?

 

Damn, some of those are NICE. I hope he puts on several layers of clear coat or something to protect those paint jobs. No point in going through all of that only for the paint to discolor from the lack of a UV resistant clear coat.
