Whats the best way to work out layout, spacing and the overall size of the control panel??? 

Dont want it to be too big but also dont want it too look wrong or not in fitting with the rest of the cab.

Im using the UAII with a 28" monitor so i guess cab will be that wide right? maybe a little bit bigger. So c/p has to be at least 28" wide.

I dont know if you saw this or not.

Scroll down to final fight.  They have a CP cover.

Thanks Snaake

Yes did see that pic as final fight artwork is so hard to find and was limited to whats out there was considering using that pic but think with the over all feel of the cp walls has got it spot on. 

We did also try using the brickwall effect on one of the first drafts but didnt work that well.

If you look at the original cp used on final fight was just the logo and some barb wire so as a final touch we added it on there and workds really well mixing old an new :)
