Thretris Theme Backlit Pocket

First up is my new backlit gameboy pocket! This one used to be a faceplate from a dark metallic blue pocket. It was in pretty bad shape, so I sanded off all the metallic blue and to my surprise it was this really cool lighter blue color underneath. After that I splattered some blood red onto it which made for a really cool contrast against the cast blue. The backing is from a stock red pocket then topped op with a Thretris sticker which I will probably remove if I ever sell it.

  1. Is your Pocket's backlight the same one you can purchase on nonfinite's website? Because that thing is the tits.

  2. Yeah, I used a nonfinite Backlight. But I suggest you use one from www.projectgameboy.com cause they are thinner and will fit better in a pocket.
