Title: NES Themed (Nostalgia) Weecade...
Post by: jdbailey1206 on December 06, 2012, 02:08:10 pm
Here is my first attempt at my weecade art.  Be as harsh as you would like.  Outside of the Marquee I really don't like it and I am looking for input.

I dig it.  Only thing I would change is have the marquee say NEStalgia.

Sideart looks great.   :applaud:

The only thing that doesn't quite look right on the CP is the 6 rectangles and 2 squares with the light-gray/dark-gray swoop.

Not sure how those relate to the NES theme.

Pick one color and lose the swoop IMHO.

Also not quite sure about the subtle swoop visible on the button halos.

I assume you're planning on using black balltop/battop sticks and red player buttons to stick with the theme.

What color/style buttons do you plan on using on the front face? 

Any other admin buttons?

After looking over the comments I went back to the drawing board and tried something new.  Again, maybe its just the artist in me never being truly satisfied, but I reworked everything and I am looking forward to everyones input. :blah:

Side note.  The turbo buttons will be as follow left to right - Start Button, 1st Player, Exit, Second Player

No sir.  I went to this.  http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,130488.0.html (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,130488.0.html)  And I don't think I'll use this either.  I'm starting to notice a pattern.   :lol

I also found this last week but can't find the actual webpage now.  I think the build was posted on the hyperspin forum.
