Help me out...I want to buy sideart, pref adhesive vinyl.. what are my options?

[AdamLotz]

Hey guys -

Well it has been a YEAR since I started my cabinet, and I just finished painting it.  I read some of the recent messages and did some searches... but maybe everyone who is offering it can chime in and tell me what they have to offer.

I'm looking for adhesive vinyl side art.  It seems like I used to see this on ebay all the time but not lately.

I have a (black) full size galaga/ms pac style cabinet, and would like either original-ish galaga artwork, or possibly one of the MAME art themes.  I did a good but not fantastic job on the cabinet and finish, so I'd like something that takes up a decent chunk of the cab - I've pretty much ruled out doing my own artwork because I think I'd like it to be somewhere around 20" wide x 30-40" long, which I wouldn't have any way to print.  I'm pretty much NOT interested in anything smaller than 12" wide, because I figure that I could do by myself.

I don't want to spend a fortune but obviously I'm asking for a lot.  lol.  

Suggestions / Photos / self-advertisements appreciated.  Sorry, at this time I'm ruling out anything that ISN'T self-adhesive... I've had my share of accidents with contact cement, spray glue, etc in the past and don't want to accidentally stick myself to my cabinet.  :-)

NICE looking cab you have there! Is it a "mame" one?

Well, so far it's one of the best that i've seen!

I strongly recommend you this site but you need to have "cash" for this babies...

You can buy artwork from TwoBits. They sell all the artwork for the Bally Midway cabs of that era. It's a tad pricey, but it will look damn original if you slap that on!

There is some vectorized artwork for Galaga on the materix-reloaded site. You could use this to create your own galaga-ish theme. For something like ErikRuud did see: http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=10;action=display;threadid=12801

Actually, the the cab you built looks more like a Pacman/Galaxian cab (Galaga/Ms-Pacman has a straight bit at the top front where the marquee is), but it sure looks nice.

Guys, thanks for the suggestions but still haven't quite found what I want... any more ideas???

Do any of the people who do the custom artwork print/ship on self adhesive vinyl?

Thanks for the comments on the cab... it really did turn out better than I expected - there are some minor imperfections but overall it looks great... now just have to find the artwork!

To give the coin door that really authentic finish you might even consider artwork for that. MikesArcade sells a coin door logo plate.
