Huge 360 Wireless Fight Stick (new aluminum joystick added)

Thanks for the replies guys.
The buttons and joystick are about shoulder length apart so, it's very comfortable playing.

AGarv, yes it is a vinyl type material and it's pretty durable too. Here's the ebay link, you get a roll that measures 2 ft x 5 ft , for around $20 shipped. I had ordered a similar size for the same price from a Hong Kong seller but it never made it here. (I think it's still in customs).  :dunno. This seller is in Miami and I got it in 2 days.  ;D

Got a little time to work on this beast this weekend. I googled a Street Fighter character select screen and decided to print it out in black and white (thought color would be too much). Very happy with the results. Next I'm planning on setting a red LED on Akuma's logo, hoping this will light up the etched art   :dunno. Pics don't the the lighting justice.
Let me know what you think.

GIZMOGAMES:
WoW that would make an awsome design idea for a ryu vs ken theme with the buttons:) with akuma playing judge haha :D
And im guessing you did do the etching on the UNDERSIDE of the plexi yah ???
either way thats some awsome artwork :D and a whole lotta controller nice work :) :cheers:

jmike:
GizmoGames, the etching for Akuma is on the underside of the plexi.
 
Small update, wired up all the LEDs and drilled and inserted 2 LEDs right under Akuma's symbol.
As you can see in the first pic the LEDs are a bit too bright, and I'm not able to get the etching to glow like I wanted (probably cause the LED is facing straight up). I need to find something to place above the symbol so it can light up the etching completely.
Second pic shows my finger over the Red LEDs and properly illuminating Akuma like I wanted. I have to find something that I can place over the light but still not look out of place or take away from the etching.

Would appreciate any suggestions

 :cheers:
