hi!
My Bartop is not finished but in an advanced stadium. so i need some artworks for it.
a friend of mine will print me the Mario Bros side art on a 45x40 sticker.

i need a marquee and i want to use the two Mario and Luigi paintings for that:

(http://www.localarcade.com/arcade_art/data/thumbnails/2/luigi.jpg)
in the middle should be the name of the Bartop (which i dont have yet :D ) in the font of the Mario Bros Cab.
the marquee will be 45cm x 7cm (not very tall - i know ^^")
does someone have an idea about that? the bartop will be in red with black here and there.
a second question. the CP will be black painted MDF wood do you think some stickers will look good? i think about the turtle and this red crab, perhaps the firefly ;)
what do you think?
the Link to my Bartop (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=62663.0)... but not painted yet.

does anyone know where i can get the Font of the Mario Bros marquee?
-
Not exactly the same but similar.

thanks :) but this is like the Nintendo Font... the Mario Bros font (see above) is different
-
Ok took a look at a mario bros marquee. It is sort of a rounded modern stencil.
Try the fonts at this site Link (http://www.dafont.com/theme.php?cat=114&page=1)

Why not use the original Mario Bros. marquee?
-
Here is one I put together -
You'll notice Mario Bros. isn't centered - is this a problem?
I might as well warn you that I only did this because I like Mario Bros. I'm not in the habit of doing art for others. I won't be able to dedicate much time to adding any tweaks or anything. Let me know what you think -
-
Also, I took some liberty with the letters. I always thought that marquee needed some embossed/contouring on it. I added a little effects.
If you like it - I can put a black border around it so it'll fit your marquee area. Right now it's 45cmx7cm.
I'll need to send you a high res version of it if you like it.
-
yes!!! great, thank you very much :)
:applaud:
is it possible to add a little bit yellow to the left and right? as it is on the side art? i think that will make it perfect
-
I don't think there is a good way to introduce the yellow without rethinking some other components. I put some on the sides, but it doesn't flow very well to me.
-
Ok - last shot. Let me know if you want this or not.
-
this one is really great :angel:
:cheers:

:)
-
Niiiice. ;D
-
oh i did not see your question above. why not use the original?
i think the original is ugly - compare your new one and the old original ;)

:applaud: :applaud:
-
perfect!!! thank you so much
:notworthy: :cheers:
i think this version IS the highres one? right? or do you have a .bmp or .ai or whatever version for me to print it?
-
This isn't high res - I'll need to send you the high res version. If you have a place to upload it. If you print that - it won't look very good. It'll be pixelated.
-
hmmm... no i dont have any webspace
perhaps via ICQ? or Email?
-
hi!
did you see my PMs? i have sent you my email :)
