Here's a preview :)
www.animeka.net/arcade/GoldenAxe.jpg
it's not finished yet, missing CP, plexiglass and real golden axe marquee...
In front of it is the control panel that I made last spring... Decided to move on to bigger things :)

Looks great, nice and clean.
It was funny, I was looking at the CP that you built, then looking at the cab, and saying to my self,
"Self, this dude's gotta be a gorilla! Look at the size of that panel for the cab!" :P
Nice work!

I just wanted to thank you because you printed your artwork on vinyal and I did the same this time and GOD ! !,
OUCH.... :D ;D..the artwork look so cool...i cant explain by words(I would post a pic but my serial port is acting funny) but your site helped(convinced me).Freagin vinyal is the cheapest material my local kinkos carry.SO,I gave it a shot and amezing result.Thanks again.

Thanks :) I did find one problem with that though, on my control panel, the vinyl is "sticking" to the plexiglass in some places, making sort of a "ring" on the art itself, like a water stain or something. This happens everywhere there's a button/joystick, the carriage bolts are pressing hard on the plexiglass, causing this effect. I wonder if spraying a coat of sealant or something on it would have prevented that...

It's a conversion from an old arkanoid machine (www.animeka.net/arcade/ga00.jpg) it's not as big as it looks, the cabinet is about 5'11"
The control panel is definitely NOT what will end up on the cab ;) I'm having metal control panels cut and folded, that are identical to the original panel (minus the artwork).

Actually it looks like arkanoid was a conversion put into a capcom bowling cabinet:)
Are the arkanoid parts working? Going to sell them? I might be interested....
