Title: daytona USA artwork : back seat stickers
Post by: Andy_Bogard on July 29, 2015, 06:31:06 am
For the restoration of my twin dayto cab, I am looking for the "road burning action" and number "1 to 8 " vectorized and original sized back seat decals.

If i could have a link or file transfer proposal via PM that would be awesome  :)

Thank you guys for your help!

Someone has already done the work.  I couldn't find it on the site, but didn't have much time to look.

That's Mikonos.  Not interested in paying through the nose and supporting a banned forum member...

In Aug I'll have some time to work in the Road Burning Action one myself if a decent copy can't be found.

If a person wasn't worried about them being 100% accurate, those could be done in photoshop rather quickly as soon as the font is found.  It's the dithering that would be hard to replicate without painstakingly vectorizing every dot.

Perhaps this will help?

Thank you guys for the interest and your replies

La Chuck I did contact Mikonos, no file sharing possible, only a buying proposal (75 bucks? seriously wtf   ??? )

Thanks Boomslang, I also found Big Panic's post on gamoover. I think I ll use his scans and ask my father to rework and vectorize them.

As soon as it's finished I ll be happy to share the work here  ;)

Dithering isn't that hard, but it is tricky and somewhat counterintuitive in Photoshop. Definetly takes a while to dial it in.

Dithering isn't hard... doing the same dithering as another random graphic is.

Got these cleaned up a bit, unsure of the exact size they need to be at, if anybody can help out with measurements I can upload high res versions.  Unsure also if my colors are correct.  I think these look alright.  Comments?

Find'em?  I built'em.  I'll get a 2 uploaded soonish.  Just saw this thread is active again

Thanks le chuck.
One consideration , the sizes are correct , but the disposition of the flags not, in the original checkered flag barely touches the R and the U.S.A. It goes right too. Maybe if you upload a vector i can reload with the corrections. Thank you
