I’ve finished fully assembling the New 3DS I painted previously, including all the parts.

It’s the first time you’ve seen a yellow New 3DS, right? Looks cool, doesn't it?

The quality isn't quite as good in person as it looks in the photos, but since it's for my own use and this was my first painting project, I’m quite satisfied with it.

To be honest, I didn't know much about painting, so I referred to a few YouTube videos on painting plastic models.

Here are the results so far:

The paint is chipping around the hinge, the buttons, and the sliders on either side of the screen... It’s not easy.
