I got more done on the rear panelling and some final finish up on the cab. Will post pictures later.
Rear panels done with brass screws on black for a little dress up
Illuminated power socket and switch wired and working
HDMI out socket installed
RGB LED controller installed and usable with remote from front of the cab.
smoked acrylic computer bay door with LED messaging fan and hardware
Rear LED ambient lights on the top of the cab

Finally I have finished up the main cab!!!! :applaud:
I promised myself I wouldn't start on the controller until the whole cab was ready, and now I can start to think about joysticks, buttons and trackballs.
As promised here are the pics of the completed back and a shot of the front in better light than last time...
Gotta make sure she has a nice behind...
Detail of the computer access door with messaging fan, it's not really blowing any air, it's just for decoration, it does measure temp in the cab though.
Power switch, HDMI-out plug etc.
Another shot of the front, trying to get a similar angle to the original concept art.

So glad you nixed the Short Circuit idea, and put that in back....Looks really cool there.
The brass is a classy touch, like that idea....
Only thing i would say is diffuse those leds on the floor....a glow would look way better than the circus effect, unless that's the look you want.
She is purty though.......great job, very clean.....
Question, does your MK4 play well on your setup.....
Whats the specs on your CPU, mem, etc....

Thanks man. The LEDs only look like that because the fllor is so shiny, on a regular floor you'd get more of a glow. Haven't actually tried MK4 yet, but computer specs are Sandybridge Dual Core Celeron at 2.4ghz, 8GB DDR3 and NVidia GTX 650 1GB, the Celeron is actually very fast, don't be fooled by the name, plus is an LG1155 socket so I can always upgrade to an i5/7 later if need be, still not clear on whether the new builds of MAME utilize the extra cores or not.

Well I have a bit of an annoying issue.
My kepler card does indeed support 4 displays at once which is awesome, however, only one of the ports is analog, and that is being used by the 15" backglass monitor. My lilliput 7" touchscreen that I was going to use in the control panel is an older analog version which only accepts VGA in.
The two DVI connections on the Video card are DVI-D which means no analog pins and they can't be adapted to analog without an active converter which runs about $150 :angry:
So, if I really want to pursue the touch screen in the control panel I either have to...
- find a 15" monitor with a digital input to free up the VGA port - $???
- buy a digital 7" Touchscreen - $200
- use an active converter - $150
- dump the touchscreen in the control panel - :'(
