I like this idea. :cheers: I'll see if I can capture and loop that sound effect. I'm also planning on having an amber glow coming from the underside. LED strips or a couple of "neon" speaker rings. I haven't decided which yet.

EDIT: I captured the humming sound from the Raiders dvd and turned it into a ten minute loop. I'm pretty happy with the way it came out. I'd put a smple up but I have no idea how to link to audio files.

Nice... :applaud:

I'm thinking there are soooo many way cool FE themes with this one... 8)

Awesome's 8)

This is gonna look scha-weeeet! :)

The chrome t-moulding is the same as the gold in that its clear plastic with a chrome layer. I used the chrome on my last cab and it its plenty durable so you should be fine there.

Looking forward to seeing the progress :)

RetroACTIVE:
I was thinking about what you said about only vertical games, so as not to detract from the original "ark-ness" of it...

Not sure if there would be a way to do this (space restrictions...complexity... etc), but if you could have the side tilt in and out, you may be able to incorporate horizontal games as well..

Of course its something that would have to come out real nice... you wouldn't want it to look crappy or be gimmicky... it would have to be flawless and flow with the whole thing.

Xiaou2:

You might want to experiment and try to use some sort of translucent airbrush paint over
the samples. Maybe a yellow or orange. That way it would look a bit more yellow, as well
as having a more solid color from all angles. Ive never tried this before, but I suspect its
possible to do.

The design is decent. But, you may wish to consider getting someone with a lathe to cut you
some nice round legs for it. Also, where are the Arks 'Carrying bars' ? :)

Ive always loved the Jones series, esp TOD. :)
