This website has many pictures of high resolution moonwalker artwork. If someone is good in photoshop they could probably recreate in a few minutes. I usually have Snaake do my artwork, but if any of you wanna give it a try I could maybe hire you. Marquee can be found at localarcade.com, the rest could be done in photoshop in a few minutes, I just dont have the software. This will be going on a dedicated cabinet, so do your best. Post pics!

I also have a real high resolution pic of the picture of michael on the sideart, so dont hesititate if you can find it, I was going to post it but it exceeds the size of posting requirements, so I could send it to someone through email or somethin.
-
I better tell you what I actually need reproduced....
2 peices of sideart
CPO
Marquee
Bezel with 2 instruction cards
Cheers, Douglas.

There's a lot of detail in the side art, marquee and CPO. Probably at least a 6 hour job if re-traced. You could get it auto-vectorized but that won't look as nice. The sideart is also a full color image, so it wouldn't be the same quality vectorized.
-
I think Rahzel is right, you need to find some high quality raster images for that sideart.
-
I have a very high res picture of that, I told you it was too big to post on this site, I said if anyone was interested in doing the work Id send it to them through email. With this picture that id be willing to send you, all youd have to do is stick it on a red background and put the white text below it, which could probably be done by extracting the color out of the text in the marquee...
-
Ill post this very shrunken version so you know what I have, its much bigger how I have it though, so if anyone wants to try just email me at Dougfromthehood@yahoo.com and Ill send the full one, Snaake is probably going to do this for me though, so by you guys trying it doesnt necessarily mean Ill be buying the final off of you. here....

The marquee can be downloaded from localarcade.com, and the control panel overlay has 3 solid colors in the background, with that same picture of michael jackson in each one, and on that website he posted an extremely high resolution picture of the michael jackson picture, so all it would need is to be resized and recolored, and its good, I dont know where you guys are getting a 6 hour job out of this....

The original marquee is too small to use on the cab im building, im using a 27 inch monitor, so have to build a replica cabinet to accomidate it.
Anyways, here is the control panel overlay already made for me by another member. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v296/CutTheBlueWlre/CPO.jpg
Didnt take him very long , he is in the process of doing the font of the button instructions for it now. Thats means bezel instructions, sideart, and marquee are all I need! ;)

I hadn't because I don't think he'd get it anyways. Not a full on slam of 3eyed, but it'd just seem like a waste of time explaining why what he wants isn't a slam dunk easy job.

Why would they? Moonwalker is an Awesome game and Michael Jackson is an Awesome entertainer...
You've got to be kidding me. Oj's innocent too...

So you just want it resized in photoshop? Not vectorized in Illustrator?
-
I could care less about vectorization, I never said I wanted anything vectorized, All I said was I needed this artwork made, you will already have high res pictures that can be resized, nothing was ever said about vectorizing, I said snaake was probably going to do it because I dont have photoshop, but I was just giving you guys the heads up if you wanted to do it. If I meant vectorizing, or some project that was going to take a great amount of time, I wouldnt have called this thread "easy project for someone". I just dont have the software to get it done myself...
-
YOU DON'T NEED TO VECTORIZE PHOTOS.
I agree with 3eyed, this is an easy job. The side art is basically just that photo + a logo underneath. If the logo is available on localarcade, then we're talking a short and easy job here.
What do you want to pay 3Eyed? PM me.
-
Finally someone understands, thats why I dont like the artwork forum, everything has to be vectorized...you guys started complaining when the whole time I was telling you I had high res pictures I wanted resized, but you had to bring vectorzation into it of course...no one listens....

That means vectorization to me. Let me know what you still need done and i'll try and help.
-
I did say reproduced, but mentioned vectorization no where. I did mention many times though that I wanted high res pics i already obtained myself resized in photoshop, and cant do it myself because i dont have photoshop. The main thing is the sideart, if anyone is interested just post your email address and ill send you the picture i have.
-
If it's sideart, you want to vectorize it, otherwise you get those crappy jagged lines when you resize it up. Or, you could just have a freakin huge hi-res picture...
-
K Rahzel is going to attemt the sideart, I sen him the high res photo, and "Cutty" (I think thats the name) did a great job on the Control Panel, as I said, they were both easy jobs!

Looks like I will just need the marquee resized and someone to do the instruction cards.
Im debating if I should have a red bezel with the instruction cards on it like the American cabinet, o If i Should just go with a black happ bezel and place te instruction cards on it, with tinted glass over it. Doug.
-
Wow, Rahzel did a great job on the sideart! Post it if you see this Rahzel. Everything is done now except the bezel instructions, just need them resized, anyone interested?
