Thanks Octo!

Yeah, with the primary color buttons, it's just not quite right. But I do believe it's another step in the right direction.

I've looked into possibly painting buttons, just not sure how well that would hold up under typical abuse ;)

I do know that, masked properly, there's no worries of the paint jamming the button or causing added friction, at least not with the Happ buttons I've got here to experiment with.

Bender:
yeah,

get some more retro controls and that thing will be awesome!

great Work!

drventure:
Hey Bender.

Thanks for the feedback. I agree. I've got to get some bone or ivory sticks, and some kind of metallic buttons. And brass. Lots of brass.

I think the spinner knob will be pretty easy to fabricate from something. I just want one that "feels" as good as a normal knob, too. It's gotta look good, but I still have to be able to play the games in comfort<g>

I really like the compass graphics.  If you're going to modify your design, I say you go with more rather than less because I really like what I see so far.  I agree that the brightly colored buttons are detracting from your overall theme, but I also don't have any ideas to fix that other than paint them or something.  Great job so far!

Gatsu:
I love the look of it so far. I have one suggestion. How about overlaying the gold brushwork ontop of an old looking map of the world.



something like that maybe.
