Has anyone done anything with an Asteroids Deluxe marquee?  I'd love to be able to print a repro one of those, but the images are so photographic in it's artwork on the marquee, I can't successfully vectorize it using Vector Magic.  Has anyone got a highres pic or scan of an Asteroids Deluxe marquee?

How goes this project Patrick?

I have purchased a TwoBits kickplate and I still need to update the kickplate and sideart on the archive based on the differences I spotted between the vectorization that I uploaded now and this piece of artwork. Most notably the colors are different (much darker than I assumed). I hope to get the proper colors for the CP since I'm still not sure. Unfortunately I can't find a Galaga cab anywhere in the netherlands so I can only go on the colors I see in photograps and scans.

I'm still working on the Galaga Bezel. I redid part of the work I lost after my hard disk crash, but I still have a long way to go. I guess I'm at 30% right now.

I'm using photo's from General Zod. an upload on the artwork archive and some scans from I'm sorry to say forgotten who put them up. I need all three together to get an accurate picture of how it is supposed to look.

Added this to the arcade art site. I think will upload a different version after I colorize her.

I'll be working on vectorizing the NAMCO Galaxian Marquee version in the next month or so.
If anyone has any additional high-res shots of this marquee, please PM me. This is what i've got to work off so far:




I'm not going to be able to get around to this anytime soon.

Hey there guys, has anybody finished vectorizing the Ms. Pacman Bezel?  I have a few projects that could use this graphic.   :notworthy:

9.  TX-1 Marquees.

Depending on your level of desperation, there's a pretty crappy one here. (From the "Marquees - Low resolution" gallery)



Didn't see anything else matching up with what you mention, but the site has some pretty good high-res stuff and my cursory search may have missed something useful that you're looking for.

Thanks for the tip.  That pic looks pretty moshed, but they may have some other stuff I can use.  I see some of the stuff I did on there, and I'm wondering why they filed it under "low res" when the source files are available on the MAME site?   :dunno

I'm working on Chelnov-Atomic Runner artworks, but I only have a few low-res pictures downloaded from the internet. It's more an interpretation than a restoration.

I'm on the way of finishing the marquee, but in order to complete the other pieces, I would need good pictures of the bezel and the control panel.


Here are the ones I have:


Not bad at all, but it's too small :(


Now I know that this CPO is the Data East generic one (thanks Tapule), but it would be great to have a good pic to be able to place the button holes in the right place (and reproduce the stickers).

Is there any kind owner who can provide me good pics,please? Once finished (with or without help), I will upload the files for everyone :). The final result will depend on the quality of the pictures I work with ;)
Help me!!! I see vectors everywhere!!

I just wanted to pop in here to thank everyone for restoring the classics - and not-so classics - to their former glory. I'm in awe of your work, and as a guy who can 'clone' stuff in PhotoImpact and that's about it, I'm extremely jealous of your skills.

Keep up the amazing work!

I subscribe to your words Rick, and although I'm just a newbie, you're welcome  ;)

Marquee almost finished...


I just need to edit the background gradient into photoshop and make minor changes :)

Chelnov is such a great game.  I think that "interpretation" is super.

That's the Arcade Art Library -- it has been offline for several months.

http://arcadeartlibrary.com/arcade_art/

You might be able to find what you are looking for at one of the other sites linked in this post.

This is not to much of a necro bump for the thread but it is for the topic. Just wondering if anybody has any good images or printable Chelnov files for the marquee and bezel. I see the guy working on this last commented on this in 2013 but was hoping maybe he just never update the thread. Have been searching hi and low for this.

Anybody out there have files for Lunar Lander side art and Xevious back splash?  I'm looking to make a Raspberry Pi quarter scale machine and would love to use the best available art.  Also looking for Space Invaders Deluxe Kick plate art.  If are isn't available I would love to have some Hi-Res pics or scans so that I could vectorize it my self.

Thanks ahead of time.
