Title: Galaga Bezel?
Post by: catonroof on February 20, 2006, 07:03:13 pm

Did anyone ever finish vectoring that upright bezel or does anyone know where a partially done one is?  I could use it for my old beat up Galaga.  It's not worth spending the big bucks to buy the glass online.  Any help appreciated.

A raster scan is in the library for vectoring, but I dont know if anyone is attempting to vectorise it as I type.

Its teh last major part of the Galaga set that needs to be completed and I for one want it in vector format to add to MAME's artwork.

OK.  Well I guess I will build it myself.  I'll upload it when I'm finished.  If anyone has a partial let me know.  That will save me some time. :)

I'm still working on the bezel. I know, it's taking me ages, but it's a lot of work. Guess I should put a progress image in the WIP thread.

If you start doing your own trace, be careful that the scan in the artwok library is damaged here and there (flaked bezel I guess) and it seems overly cleaned too. Many of the smaller stars are missing and the objects seem eaten away a little (smaller than in other images)

I have seen the raster, it IS a lot of work!

A nice WIP would be fab! It's a great bit of arcade art history in the making...
