Default Custom made Guitar Hero Controller Skins

I am in the process of making a custom controller skin for my co-workers 360 guitar. I was wondering if there would be any interest in making these skins available for purchase. I am doing the 360 one first but I am open to doing the PS2 as well. I could design it for you (I was thinking a $15-30 charge for design, more if it is extremely custom) or you can design your own. These skins are printed on a 3M material called controltac which is heat activated and will conform to the body of the guitar. They can be removed and will not leave a mess on your guitar. Also, the skins can be laminated to make them scratch resistant. That would be a few dollars extra. I would love some input from all of you. I would estimate a cost of $15.00 non-laminated, and $20.00 with the laminant.

Questons to answer:

-Would you buy it?

-Would you have me design it or are you more inclined to create your own. (Remembering that items ripped from the internet may not look as clean as something actually done in photoshop).

-Is my price fair for what you are getting?

-Would you need a tutorial on how to install this?

-Should a PS2 version be made?

-Any other questions

Thanks everyone, I am all about custom things and would love to make some cool looking designs for the masses. Check out this link bm/IIDX/III @Home Setup Image Thread v2.0 (56k no-no!) to see what I did with my Beatmania stuff. I am the 3rd one down.
Also, check out my web site here: Bowman Signs LLC (I'm in the middle)

EDIT HERE IS THE SKIN!!!

That's the best custom guitar I think I have ever seen. D: Wonderful custom skin.


And it sounds like you've put lots of hard work into it. If I could afford, I'd buy, but I'm sooo poor. xD The scratch-resistant laminate is a GREAT idea. <3

Gosh, it's beautiful, though *_*

Not sure how much extra it would be. I would think mot too much as I can package it under 2 lbs. Designs are what ever you want. I am looking for Ideas. Either come up with a design or give me something to go on that you want to see. Any of that would be helpful and I'll see what I can do.

-Would you buy it? Possibly.

-Would you have me design it or are you more inclined to create your own. (Remembering that items ripped from the internet may not look as clean as something actually done in photoshop). Create your own.

-Is my price fair for what you are getting? I guess...

-Would you need a tutorial on how to install this? Stick On: Apply directly to the guitar!

-Should a PS2 version be made? Yes, especially for the wireless one.

Well, here is my personal GHII skin. I am a long time fan of Don Bluth's Dragon's Lair so here it is.




Later tonight we will see the Spiderman skin once RemyFowler uploads it.

sorry man, RemyFowler didn't know how to do it and I was unaware that mine was so big cause the options to display pics was off in my settings. Sorry to bother. But hey...Do you like the skins?
