My Painted Controller (S4)

Hello guys,

I want to share a little (kind of artistic) and fun project of mine with you:

I disassembled my Kontrol S4 and painted it :smiley: I don’t wanted to use a sticky skin, so i grabbed my spray can. Enough words, here are the pictures:

As a next step i thought of spraying a pattern on top of the metal plates since its now very easy to remove them :slight_smile:

Have any of you ever thought of panting your controller? Or you already did? Hit reply, post pictures and let me know :slight_smile:

Have a nice Day!

PS: If this is in the wrong forum i politely ask the mods to move it. I thought it doesn’t really fit into the “modded gear” thread.

Looks pretty good! Paint is uneven in some parts though. Nice job! :slight_smile:

That’s so sick bro! Love it plus the chroma caps :smiley:

I would seriously consider sanding this back (you won’t even need to take all of the paint off) and applying a couple more LIGHT coats.

Just hit it with some fine grit sand paper to take the shine off, then go over it with 2 or more VERY LIGHT coats of the same paint.

I made the exact same mistake as this when I painted my DM2 (YEARS ago!)

Thank you! :slight_smile: yeah, forgot to clean the sides and started spraying :cry:

Thanks! :thumbsup: i like the combination a lot, too - now trying to get enough chroma caps for my twister sigh :wink:

Thank you very much :slight_smile: Maybe i am painting my maschine next, if i have memorized all the writings/buttons - which could take a while :wink:

Thanks for the suggestion - what would be the benefit of this? What do you mean with mistake? Did the paint come off too soon? It’s the first time i sprayed something :wink:
