If you could give one piece of advice to aspiring artists, what would it be?
There are days when I look at what I’m doing and wonder if I’m capable of making this work. I can get so caught up in everything I still need to learn that I forget how far I’ve already come. But I love learning, I love creating, and I refuse to let those thoughts decide my future.
If you ever have these thoughts too, remember: you don’t have to believe in yourself every day to keep going. Keep learning, keep trying, and don’t give up on yourself. Winners never quit, quitters never win 🤍
How to Paint on Your PS5:
A Step-By-Step Guide
1Prep the Console
Start by lightly scuffing the PS5 shell using 1500 grit sandpaper so the paint has texture to grip. Then clean it thoroughly with Angelus Leather Preparer & Deglazer to remove oils and residue. Mask off any ports, buttons, vents, and areas you don't want painted.
2Build Your Base
Mix Angelus Acrylic Paint with 2-Hard for better adhesion on the PS5's rigid plastic. For a rigid surface, we recommend a higher 2-Hard ratio, and multiple thin coats will give you a smoother even finish.
3Bring the Design to Life
Layer in the GTA 6 inspired artwork with Angelus colors. Use 2-Thin when you need smoother paint flow for fine details or airbrushing, keeping your layers thin and controlled. Start by building the blue background first, then the character, bat, chain, and vicious dog.
4Seal the Masterpiece
Once the artwork has fully cured, finish it with Angelus 4-Coat or an Angelus Acrylic Finisher in your desired sheen. This final layer helps protect the artwork from everyday scuffs and wear while giving the PS5 that finished professional look.
