Hah, ino worries.  Wisconsin is tough, and playing in Madison is even harder.  They brought out all of our weaknesses, and their running game is insane.  John Clay is a beast.

Anyway, I tried to put the logo on the CP to see if I liked it.  I'm undecided.  I'm might scrap the Miller Lite thing for something different.  I wish the logo was wider.

Alright time for another update.

So after I got everything mounted on the control panel the wiring began.  The wiring took about 4 hours, and you can see it is still pretty messy, but operable!  After it is all tested, I'll clean it up.  Once the control panel was working, I took a week because the arcade itch was just too much and I had to play.  I had some friends over last weekend and we fully tested it out. 

We played some 2v2 nba jam and nfl blitz on the dreamcast among other games.  I'm glad I made my CP as big as it is, because it's still tight with 4 full grown men around it, and I have no regrets with the amount of buttons I have.  It looks good IMO.

So after my week break, I got back to work.  More painting of the inside of the cab, and doing other little touchups.  Now on to the top part of the cabinet.  I got the sides cut, slot cut, and attached today. It's starting to look like an arcade instead of just a TV on a stand!  I still haven't made art for the sides, I am currently in the middle of working on the marquee art.

So that's the progress so far.  This week I'm on the road for business and won't be able to work on it :(.  So the next update will likely be a couple weeks away.

Also, I am about to order my art for the CP and had a question.  Since I will be covering the CP with plexiglass, would u recommend getting the art from a place like gameongrafix?  I am planning on getting my side art and marquee from them, but was wondering if I could save a few bucks getting the CP art somewhere else since it is protected with plexi?

DirtyDachshunds:

It's been a while since an update.  So here is a quick rundown of where I'm at.

I finally revised my 'logo' to make the C look better.  I like it much more now.



I also tried integrating it into my control panel art.  I have not had time to develop my marquee or side panel art yet, but I will probably integrate the logo into them as well.



I ordered my CP art from gameongrafix and it should hopefully be in soon!  Let me know what you think of the updated art.
