Even more cabs from Dan Ludemann. One of my fav games Space Dungeon. A Robotronesquee shooter.... Bubbles that weird Williams game and he updated Blaster. Mr. Arcade contributed a set of beautiful backglass and field pictures for some 25 popular pinball games to use on the pinball model...

I'll ahve to do some checking but I think some other popular games used that cab like double dragon 1 and almost all of the taito shooters.

What foramt do you guys need artwork in? And it's supposed to just be flat? like a flat control panel overlay?

We take whatever we can find.  Some of the cabs are done from nice clean scans of artwork, some are done from pictures taken of artwork laying on the ground, (for ebay resale of course) And some are literally taken from the sides of a cabinet pic.  We can work with it all, but it's best if it's pre-flattened before we get it.  This can be done with photoshops perspective and distortion tools. So if you can't find the actual artowrk scans what is needed are nice clean pictures of the cab, with at least one full shot of the sideart, one closeup of the control panel and a good closeup of the monitor so hopefully we can grap the bezel from the shot.

The cabs I've done so far are half and half.  If you look closely at the xmen cab you'll notice that the top corner looks slightly off.  This is because I coudln't get a clear shot of the bezel and I had to rework sections by hand.  The same can be said for it's control panel, which was patched together from 8 seperate shots of a working xmen control panel.  

So if you send it to me technically I can work with just about anything and send it to dan, or he and )p( can clean it up, or with his permission I can skin the cab for him.  

Thanks for your interest... Personally I have gotten a lot of help from people sending me pics especially tiger heli.. thanks man.  :)

Just to note, I sent Dan pacman graphics, everything.  There already is a nice upright, but I also have cocktail.  Not sure if there is a difference in cabaret cabinets.

As HC wrote :-)

But we prefer to get them pre-flattened offcourse saves us a lot of photoshop work ;-)

Ok, cool. I have a few cabs in mind. I will try to gather the images, and do some PS work on them before hand.

Some real nice models so far!

Thanks Guys!
