I posted over on reddit/someone posted my stuff and people kept on saying I should post these over here. So I posted in "Show-off Corner." Then someone suggested I post here. Well...quite the little journey I've been on...anyway...here are some cartridges I've made:

This is the first one I made:

Then I made this one:

Then people kept on asking for x game..so I started making them:

And of course...people wanted SNES ones so here some I made:

Ummm here are some quick general questions I'm always asked:

How where they made?: They were made using a laser engraver and years of art school. It would probably be cheaper just to get the laser engraver and skip art school.

Do you do custom orders?: yep

How tall are you?: According to tinder, not tall enough.

I'll try to answer any other questions below.

You can buy them here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/Pigminted

Wow, really great work and they are even affordable. Keep this up!
I might send some custom orders your way :)

Edit: Oh wait, haha, i thought they were actual game cartridges.
@pigminted Would you consider doing cases for actual SNES Games as well? That would be really great.

I'd for sure order a Donkey Kong Country one. :D

I'm placing an order tonight. Could you do a Ninja Turtles SNES with Krang on the front the way you did the Metroid?

I was going to originally but I didn't want to deal with people messing up their games and blaming me etc...so I just stuck to making pi versions.

If you can provide me with the artwork, I can add the acrylic in the front for Krang no problem. I usually prefer to replicate the box art. Why? Becuase I've done custom artwork for cartridges ( and other works) for people and...some people are not the best to work with...and that has left me a little bit bitter. So I prefer not to do custom artwork anymore. If you got any more questions let me know.

So, is this a no or would you maybe create one again, if I can convince you that I will not sue you if I break anything :lol:

May I ask you, what you do for a living? Is this something you just came up with/a hobby or do you do woodworking as a job?
