Customising your Holga

Golgotha · 16th February 2008

Has anyone tried painting over your holga with acrlic paint or spray painting it? Am gonna try soon since I've so bored & with spare time on my hands

Tried drawing/painting with those paint pen but failed. The rough surface part made it darn hard for me. Maybe spraying will be much easier. I ended up turning mine into a wooden version.

I do have few photos of other people's dressed up HOlga here
