Theme suggestions
Jdurg:
Another idea that just ran through my head was a Dracula themed cab. Use a lot of Eastern European themes with castles, bats, blood, mist, vampires, etc. That would look pretty cool with dark red buttons, T-Molding, artwork that uses puddles of blood for the player surrounds, etc.

I too once thought about an all black arcade, even a black marquee!!!
It just screams "everything" while claiming relation to nothing.............The true multi arcade.....rather than have a "sybil" like design of 100 games...........Good idea RayB/Blanka, at least the artwork will be cheap, LOL! Its almost poetic :'(
LOTR is a pretty sweet idea too, so is Mario, man thats cool! (Jedi reply to Aceldamor: "this isnt the post you're looking for").

Yeah. So far I've just got the CP built and the coin-door restored and ready to go. Due to unexpected "issues" in real life, the building of the cabinet itself has not commenced. So right now I just have a working CP. At least I can play games. ;D I'm really hoping that once the issues have settled a bit I'll get the "oomph" that I need to build the cab itself.
Here's a low-resolution version of the control panel art. The CP has been painted a donkey kong jr. type of orange with black t-molding on it, and one black admin button on the sides. Both sides of the CP have beer/soda can holders too. Once I get off ---my bottom--- and go to Radio Shack to pick up some terminal blocks to make wiring up the coin door to the CP easier, I'll put the T-Molding back on and take a photo. Then again, I also need to install bolts on the bottom of the CP in order to bolt it to the cab once it's built.
Here's a link to my artwork thread: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=79550.0
and here's one to my very slow project announcement thread: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=74344.0
