"Murdered Out"/ The BlackOut Bartop - Artwork Update
jholman76:
Thanks alot. I went with black because it doesnt stick out too much. the white vinyl labels are almost easier to read.
Basically I was getting a little tired of some of busy designs out there. not that its a bad thing, but I just like the more subtle look. I always have.
I thought about colored buttons/theme next build after my Woody is done. That one is going to be black t-mold/buttons with a red cherry finish.
As for the art... its going to be the icing on the cake.... got some GREAT art samples. classic marquees of my favorite games.

Never be afraid to be "long winded". ;D I must say, well documented (the Arcade love shows) and a great result. I like the fact that you've gone with the uncompromised black theme. As nice as it is to share projects with folks on here, it's great fun to see the reaction from people who know nothing about the hobby.
:cheers:

Everyone I have showed it to wants one. Its very satisfying to hear the compliments after all the time I put into it.
Thanks, BTW for the tutorials for the glowy buttons. Its not a perfect replica, but it works!
As for the documentation, in college I had to take a few manual writing classes. Ive done my fair share of documenting!

Small update...
Bartop as it sits right now weighs in at 47.5 lbs!
its not budging under any kind of tough play, me thinks.
