Actually the CPO artwork might if I can figure out how to print it fullsize and then I can just take the measurements from the print.
 :cheers:

I always seem to have issues doing a multi page print and having it actually come out the right size once pieced together. But I'll give it a shot.

If all else fails I'll go get the actual CPO from the fella and just do it that way.
(just won't be any time soon)

Coincidentally I just made a custom CPO in photoshop and used it as a template.

In photoshop resize it to actual width

With "poster printery" print it out segmented onto thick printer paper.

Use a trimmer (or scissors) to cut out the artwork (it prints with white borders)

Paint a kinda thick layer of "acrylic protector" on your material (think of it as wallpaper glue)

Stick your artwork to the material and let it dry, the acrylic protector will seep through from the back to the front and both attach and laminate the artwork. (do not paint anything onto the front of the artwork)



Segmented artwork is not too great, but it could at least work as a template :)

Have fun :)

Hello Kevin,

We are kind of both in the same predicament.   The Defender dimensions do give one a start as you really have to do is fudge the location of the Inviso button and the center (right) joystick.   But that would really have you start moving quite a few things around...very time consuming.

I too thought of just getting a Multi-Williams CPO...however since I really need a smaller version, I can't see spending the $30 for a CPO just to get the dimensions.  Thus I was hoping that someone posted the dimensions here.

I haven't done any work on the CP for my MW project as yet as I am still hoping that tanman (who bought the Phoenix films) might yet be persuaded to run full sets of art.

Having said that, I have been entertaining modifying the artwork because, as tok points out, the placement of the reverse button is too far to be convenient. I already have my Joust cocktail so am considering "deJousting" my Mw and moving the damned button. Or I could just use black vinyl like is on there now. :P

jukingeo: I'm not sure I see your problem -- since you are making a custom panel, what do you need original measurements for (I may have missed something) ? If you want the AI files for the art to rescale or adjust, they can be found in Zorg's archive:

Oh I found that overlay for sale here :

I think they print your supplied artwork, so you could have them print the sideart as well :)
