Decal kits are for n00bs

And despite looking like a decal kit this was a handrolled effort by myself, i spent a good couple of hours measuring up my trusty PS3 PHAT, note it's a bit fatter at the front than a standard job thanks to intercoolers, a temp readout display and the additional usb ports and memory card slot, then i set about cutting out all the parts and veeeeery carefully placing them on the casing, now this lot is never gonna come off thanks to the shiney industrial contact sheets the photo realistic design was printed on.

    I somehow thought you'd opt for a Hello Kitty design though!

  2. -haha- cheers :D was a bit nerve wracking getting the sheets positioned considering just how damn sticky they were, only ballsed a couple of bits up but re-cut them.

    here's a tip, if you want to run USB cables to the back under the console (as above) buy some of those stick on felt pads for ornaments etc. and stick them to the feet of your PS3 to raise it up high enough to run a cable out of the way.
