You will notice that all the work I've done so far was mainly on the case. This is because I bought a broken GBC, just to study the circuits and everything I need to know about it.
I threw away the screen protector because I'm going to use a better one.
I cleaned the case with acetone, then sanded down all the words which were on the case; start/select, EXT, Comm. I also removed the port which lets you play the gameboy off wall power and filled in the hole with bondo.
Anyone who has played the gameboy color can tell you that it is hard to see the game you are playing, as the screen is not lit in anyway. I had a broken Gameboy SP screen around and decided to crack it open and look inside. I found this light panel:
I had to sand down the GBC so it would fit. (It has been sanded and looks nice now) 8)
I filled up the area where the volume scroll button was with bondo and ABS cement.
I put primer on the bottom half of the case to see if there were any holes or gaps in my bondo work.
I then sanded the case to make it ready for painting.
P.S Sorry for the big pics, Im not in the resizing mood
More to come soon!
