DLi$h just sent it pics of his latest work: a pair of custom Skullcandy SK-Pro headphones with a custom 8″ Lilly Black figure. They look like something a DJ would wear while spinning at a rave in a steampunk post-apocalyptic future. Don’t believe me? Hit the jump for a better look.

DLi$h just sent it pics of his latest work: a pair of custom Skullcandy SK-Pro headphones with a custom 8″ Lilly Black figure. They look like something a DJ would wear while spinning at a rave in a steampunk post-apocalyptic future. Don’t believe me? Hit the jump for a better look.

About the headphones, DLi$h says:

s set of Custom Skullcandy SK-Pro headphones offers the ultimate in performance audio. This is Skullcandy’s top-of-the-line DJ series headphones for SERIOUS music enthusiasts.

The headphones are hand painted in acrylic to provide a distressed metal effect to them. The stitches are also hand sculpted using sculpey. It also features the badges and insignias of the US Navy’s F18 Fighter Jet.

These headphones make one ask, “should I wear them, or just leave them for desk art?” The choice is yours, but if you do decide to take them out, then don’t expect to find anyone wearing the same pair as there are only three ever made.

Each comes signed and numbered by DLi$h. Also included free Lily Black 8″ custom toy.

Can’t quite put my finger on it, but I’m not entirely feeling these. Overall I think the concept is cool, but there’s something about the stitching that just seems a tad sloppy. Maybe the brownish part is overlapping the white on the stitching too much?

Anyway, you can pick these up for $279.99 from Delicious Drips. Or you can just get a cheaper uncustomized pair from Amazon.

Also, is anyone else’s mind so conditioned by pop culture and video games that they think of a chainsaw as a weapon instead of a tool, or is it just me?

Gotekings GBA Touch mod has a built-in USB cable under the battery case and he even used some sticky stuff to rig the B button so that it acts as the iPhone’s menu button. Clever stuff!

To celebrate the recent launch of ChipMusic.org, chiptuner/console modder extraordinaire Thretris banged out this hot Game Boy complete with a Pro Sound Mod and custom lettering.

Strongly considering making an Albotas Game Boy.

If you have no clue what all this means, please refer to this post.

Thretris is a chiptune musician and console customizer (previously featured for his NES mods) who’s whipped up this extra sexy custom keyboard for use with the LSDJ tracking program for the Game Boy. They keyboard lets you actually play each note rather than having to program each note by hand within LSDJ.

The overall paint job on this is killer and the modding process doesn’t even seem all that hard. Thretris has an easy-to-follow tutorial which you can find right here.

If any of you out there are curious about making chiptunes of your own, I highly recommend bookmarking Thretris’s blog. There’s a heap of valuable resources totally worth checking out.

There’s a step-by-step explanation (in Japanese) of how this was built, along with plenty of pics, here.

Megaman 8-bit Deathmatch will play as if Megaman suddenly turned 3D. Everything will play as if it was being played back in 1987. Levels will use purely 8-bit textures and sprites.

Megaman 8-bit Deathmatch will play as if Megaman suddenly turned 3D. Everything will play as if it was being played back in 1987. Levels will use purely 8-bit textures and sprites. Megaman will jump high and take damage recoil. Weapons will behave exactly as they did back then, only from a 3d perspective. The plan is to eventually have all the levels and weapons from Megaman 1-6 (and maybe 9). Obviously some weapons will have minor changes because there are a lot of clones throughout the series.

It’s 2009 and people are STILL making Doom mods!?As long as they look this awesome, they can just keep on making ‘em.

You can currently download the early alpha build of Megaman 8-Bit Deathmatch here.

Is anyone else annoyed by the fact that the makers of this mod are spelling Mega Man as one word (Megaman) instead of the proper 2-word spelling?

Mad props to Greg, who beat the original 6 robot masters and Dr. Wily WITHOUT cheating, for the tip.

I’ve featured countless custom designer toys and custom console mods on Albotas throughout the years, but these custom NES systems by Thretris (spotted on Tiny Cartridge) are the first I’ve seen that have sort of a designer toy aesthetic. The polish and level of professional quality on these are amazing.

The line between toy customizing and console modding is just a bit more blurry.

This is the Killtendo Entertainment System (KES) and is a companion to another Thretris custom, the Billtendo Killboy

Dubbed Sky, all I can think of when I look at this one is Mega Man.

This one’s called 80’s Reborn, which I can kind of see, but this one gives off the biggest designer toy vibe.

And since we’re on the topic of custom NES consoles, check out this red velvet NES by Phil McCoy and sexy-ass Battletoads NES by Phil’s friend Greg which were also featured on Tiny Cartridge:

Possibly one of the best NES mods ever.

As cool as it is, I kinda’ wish it was facing the right way. You have to turn the console around in order to play it an everyone knows that staring at an NES’s ass isn’t as cool as staring at its frontal goods.

The mod was made using one of those bootleg emulators from China that shady vendors at the mall always try to sell. I wonder if anyone ever tried modding a GP2X into an NES console…

Here’s a vid  showing of the mod in action:
