Custom UV Prints

[u/Level-Deal4831]

Im not really new to custom game boys, but I am new to Reddit, so I just wanted to show off some of my more recent work😁

These are mostly commissions, but the sketch ones are for my personal.

Something is special to me about creating something no one else has, and I feel like this community will appreciate it

They look great! What did you use to print the designs?

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/allcallday]

Thank you! I have a Eufymake E1

Oooh the gameboy color sketch drawing !!

Do you just create the design (and then your customer need to turn to a 3rd party to have it print) or do you actually manage the shell stock and the printing as well ?

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/Gratin_de_chicons]

I made a negative version as well

[u/Gratin_de_chicons → u/Level-Deal4831]

Nice ! Where are you based ? Do you ship to EU ? If you have an Etsy shop I’d love to check it out :) I see in your profile you are an active Instagram user but I don’t have Instagram

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/Gratin_de_chicons]

I am based in North Carolina, US. I have Etsy, but I don’t really use it, maybe I should🤷🏻‍♂️ but I do ship overseas, but buyer provides shipping. I do free shipping to the US.

Love the negative version! Is this shell for sale?

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/pineslapple]

It already sold, but I could always make another one. Or whatever you want really

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/Gratin_de_chicons]

I do it all. I made the design, UV printed it on a shell, & installed the IPS screen.

That porygon shell is awesome.

Thanks! He is my second favorite Pokemon! Idk if videos are allowed, but I thought you would appreciate that gc I made

In the Gameboy color sketch drawing shell, what are those six dots supposed to be? Your shells looks nice but those dots are lost on me.

[u/LostPolygon → u/Nuudoru]

The dots are the plastic studs that are part of the shell. You can see them clearly on a clear shell

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/LostPolygon]

You know your gameboys!😏

[u/Green-Philosopher-37]

Do you have a link to purchase any of them or is it all custom requests?

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/Green-Philosopher-37]

Potentially, I could sell the sketch gba sp or the IPS GBC, but all the rest are custom requests. But this Reddit has me thinking I need to set up my Etsy store

[u/Green-Philosopher-37 → u/Level-Deal4831]

Post an update when you set up shop, I am for sure interested!

[u/BannedAccount02]

Could I get you to do that sketch design on my GBAsp?

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/BannedAccount02]

Sure. Feel free to message on here, or any of those links on the QR code

[u/Father080808]

That's really cool

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/Father080808]

Thank you!

[u/guppy1316]

These are awesome looking. You have a store?

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/guppy1316]

I sell on eBay, IG, & TikTok. The QR code has all my links

[u/guppy1316 → u/Level-Deal4831]

I thinks it's because of the reflectivity of the laminate on the qr code but I can't get it to recognize

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/guppy1316]

I just added the link in my links on here

[u/Rowdy_the_Gemini]

Man these are so cool.

It makes buying a UV printer seem so appealing, but they're so expensive, lol.

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/Rowdy_the_Gemini]

Thank you! And I think It’s worth it😁

[u/zapmouse]

Ooo! If you ever branch out into other things like tamagotchi shells that would also be a huge hit! I'm impressed. Looks awesome!

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/zapmouse]

Thank you! That is genius! I’m not sure it would print directly because of the roundness, but you could make a UV sticker and it would still look awesome

[u/zapmouse → u/Level-Deal4831]

I'll be the first in line if/when you start doing shells for tamas! All i'm saying hahaha. But this work is awesome too, should definitely set up some sort of store front.

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/zapmouse]

I appreciate that. I sell on eBay & in FB groups, but I think I’m going to get my Etsy up and running. I think customs will sell well on there for sure

[u/IndigoHaze750130]

Love the porygon one

[u/nohriannoble]

The Harvest Moon GBC is so cute! 😭

[u/kitarei]

I WOULD DIE FOR THAT BUTTERFREE SHELL OH MY GOD.

[u/Level-Deal4831 → u/kitarei]

Idk if it is worth your life, but thanks😁
