Oh yeah, Mario Time! | Customizing Nintendo Switch Pro Controller with Posca Pens 🎨
This year is Super Mario’s 35th anniversary. Therefore, we dedicate this video to the Italian plumber. There was a poll in the community tab, and you voted for Mario himself to be painted onto a Super Mario themed Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.
This time I painted the entire front plate of the controller. Of course, I left the backside of the controller as well as the grips untouched, so that the hands won’t cover the artwork when playing.
Without the help of Luigi, I could have never finished this custom painted Nintendo Switch Pro Controller?😅
For this artwork I used Posca paint pens once again. They were perfect for such a colorful artwork, and there was no big need for mixing colors, except for the shadings. Also, I have more experience with Posca markers than with Golden Fluid acrylics, which I also use from time to time.
As always, we are happy about design suggestions and feedback. Please leave a like if you enjoy this video. If you like our videos, make sure to subscribe and hit the bell to not miss any new video.
Stay tuned for more custom handhelds and great projects soon.
