Hi everyone! I am currently a pre-press operator but have access to digital presses. Sometimes when work is slow I print out posters to break up the monotony of my game room. Lately I’ve been thinking about making some Virtual Boy posters but I’ve kind of hit a wall as to what I actually want to do. Attached is an image I found online. It’s one idea I had. The image is low-res so I’ll have to rework it but my idea is to print it on silver foil with white ink behind the black so that only the red is metallic.
Anyone have any suggestions for a kick ass Virtual Boy poster? They’ll only be 12″x18″.

Here’s a rough mock-up I made today using images I found online and just modifying them. It conveys the general idea of what I want to do. Looks like I can’t print on foil anymore so I went with a different route. The end product will look similar but it’s going to be put in one of those deep picture frames. I’m going to print the Virtual Boy logo and the Virtual Boy on clear vinyl and adhere that to the glass in the front, then images behind the eye piece and the background image will be printed out and placed behind that glass about an inch and a half or so. I’m hoping this way when you look at it, it kind of gives a sense of depth.
As I said this is a purely rough draft, and in the end I will recreate all of it. Any constructive criticism would be appreciated!
