Advice on space invaders themed marquee
JustMichael:
Maybe make the invader smaller and call it "Arcade Invader".
RayB:
I vote in favor of Delusional's suggestion

Delusional, can you share your marquee photoshop file again? I know it's at EMDKAY but I have to resize the marquee. When I tried using the one you shared the space invader stretched a bit.

Hello,
Sorry for bumping this topic after such a long time, but I'm working on a tabletop arcade and I need some help with the marquee. The cabinet is based on the WeeCade. For the way that it was going to look I looked at a lot of pictures and videos of other people's cabinets. I decided to base it on the 'Green Invader' cab made by Delusional. I painted my cabinet completely red to suit it with the the homecinema/party room where the cab is going to be placed. And currently I only need to finish the wiring of the buttons, cut the plexiglass for the bezel and marquee and print a marquee. However that last thing is what I'm having trouble at. I tried to recreate the marquee of the Green Invader but my Photoshop skills just don't allow me to do so. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could send me the Photoshop file of it (preferably in red) or tell me what the effects in the picture are called so I can look up tutorials for it and make it myself. With effects I mean the wavy lines, blocks and the flare behind the Space Invaders sprite. FYI, I'm talking about this picture:
Thanks in advance!
