The question is, where's Pauline on this otherwise-gorgeous, custom-painted NES?

I know what some of you are thinking, and my response that is, yes, I have a bit of a problem when it comes to salivating over the custom-painted game systems concocted by the artist professionally known as Oskunk.

Can you really blame me, though? After all, the guy regularly pumps out beautiful, paint-covered (or in this case, posca-covered) consoles like the following:



As I stated in this post's header, the only problem I have with this particular Oskunk creation is that it's lacking even a hint of Donkey Kong's resident damsel in distress, Pauline.

Anyway, should you want to check out additional photos of this awesome NES, please direct your favorite browser to custom-art.blogspot.com.

Maybe she got tired of waiting for Mario to rescue her and escaped on her own.

I like that idea, Terry! Let's go with it :)

Maybe she's crushed in Donkey Kong's huge fist. Ew. Pauline jam.


I'd love to have seen an 8-bit representation of her on this one.

Oh, that would have been nice, wouldn't it? The 8-bit representation, I mean; not the Pauline jam.

Isn't it, though? And if you like that, Elliot, you should peruse Oskunk's blog and/or Flickr photostream. The things he's been able to paint on various consoles and handhelds are AMAZING!
