Title: Marvel vs Capcom inspired artwork. can't quite nail it!
Post by: xand49 on February 21, 2013, 10:16:27 am

Howdy,

I've been working on a bartop, I'm using marvel vs capcom as a base theme.

I have the following marquee

I'm very happy with this marquee (based on the original mvc)

however I just can't nail down a control panel style that I am happy with, this graphic comprises of my control panel and a vertical section stretching from the CP to the base of the bartop, in this instance it's the size of the small groups (bottom left/right).

I was wondering if anyone could take a look at the following two and give me ideas on how to make them work

Option 1

Option 1 over Option 2, if it's a single player bartop.

Option 2 only if a joystick comes out of Hulk's crotch.   ;D

But seriously, I'd have to see it with mocked up joystick/button holes

I still have a few things to work out with how far I want my joystick from the buttons at present, but i will have the joystick in an empty hexagon on the left hand side, and if my buttons spill to the right I will edit the pattern so that they don't effect the hexagons.
