Hi folks!
My Centipede-sideart arrived today! Really fast, and luckily without paying any taxes though shipped overseas!
I haven't applied it yet - I'll wait for a friend to help me. There is still the protection-paper over it, but from what I can tell so far it looks good.
What I really wonder - it seems that there is no shape cut? ???
So shall I cut the outlines of this big worm before I applied it, do I miss something, or is this art supposed to cover the whole side, so I only cut the overstanding edges?
If its the last one, than I sure have a problem. To fit bigger controlpanels, I made two slightly changes to the original Centipede-design -the controlpanel is a few inch deeper, and the marquee-area also (so you don't see the extended controlpanel-area at first sideview).
Anyway, I guess there are easier things to cut out than these big beautfiful worm? ???
OSCAR:
Congrats on picking up the sideart duty-free! You gotta love that! ;D
I would definitely recommend you send a quick email to ArcadeShop for a few pointers on installing and trimming the sideart because you certainly wouldn't want to risk messing up that beautiful piece of work. I thought the Centipede sideart was die cut to the correct shape, but apparently I am mistaken if it is just a big sheet.
Brax:
In the worst case scenario you'll just have to trace a 1/4" border around the outline and use that as your trim line.
Great work, you're going to have a beautiful cabinet.

Congratulations! Isn't that a beauty? told you so... Look for installation instructions in the Arcade renovations site. The way to apply it is to cover the whole side of the cabinet with the side art and then trim around the cab edges. If I recall correctly, the side art itself has some alignment marks to make your job easier. Of course this is for original-sized cabs. If you modified the original measurements, then your cab may be too wide/tall for the art and you may have to cut around the worm instead. The good news is that since your cab is laminated white it will look good either way.
