Black or White sides?

I've started on a Gauntlet Theme.  Probably will end up calling it "Game Gauntlet" and I'll modify the gauntlet text with "the game" on top in the same style text.  I'll then use that text to trim the bottom of the side art.

I also plan on taking the stripes out of the cp art.  I'll to something which more resembles the gauntlet art.  Ignore the marquee for now, it's just the cp art repeated.  CP art is the pressing one.  The cabinet is painted excpet for the sides and I need a CP overlay to start assembling.

Wienerdog:

Maybe it's just me, but the sideart seem low and it doesn't quite fit since it's short and wide and the sides are tall and narrow.  how about laying out the characters different?

Mark70:

Yeah,

I kind of know it in my gut that, to pull off the white sides with sideart, you have to have excellent, colourful sideart, that takes up allmost all of the white space.

My wife even said it looks way better black.

If I ever do side art, I'm going to have to spend a lot of time designing it.  I want this thing playable soon.  I think I'm going to go black.

Mark70:

Painted all black with purple T moulding installed.  It looks blue in the photo, but it's a kind of blueish purple.  It was supposed to match happ purple buttons, but it's off a little.  Looks fine enough for me.

Now, coming up with CP art is holding up assembly. 

Off to my honeymoon for two weeks, it will have to wait.

Yoder:

Mark, it looks awesome!  I like the black cab, but I'm pretty conservative :)  Your design approach with the mock-ups is top notch...have a good trip!  Congrats!
