Title: KI2 Sideart?
Post by: compyislife on September 06, 2009, 08:47:41 pm: Hi everyone, first post here.

I am wondering if anyone knows where I can find a high resolution jpeg of the Killer Instinct 2 sideart. I would be very thankful for a link. :)

Thanks,
compyislife

Let me know if that would help.

Post by: GuyDanger on September 22, 2009, 11:01:49 am: Sorry, let me take that back, I've got a Killer Instict 1 Cabinet with Killer instict 2 Marque and Control Panel Art. I'm sanding it down so I can convert it over to a M.A.M.E. Cabinet.

I don't have the original Jamma board so no sense in restoring it to a Killer Instinct cabinet.

Post by: SNAAKE on September 22, 2009, 04:01:19 pm: KI vector art is LONG overdue. ppl have been asking for it for years. quick someone take on the project lol..

it cant be that hard to do(it will take time though)

Post by: GuyDanger on September 22, 2009, 04:20:17 pm: You know what...if I find some time I'll give it a shot.

The reason it hasn't been done yet is the original artwork is photo quality. There may be some detail loss in the conversion. But we will see what comes out!

wow, that sucks even more. I love the KI1 side art. Spinal is awesome. I spent like 20 hours slowly removing black paint to bring out the spinal on my KI1 cab

Well, I'm planning on getting it printed @ www.mamemarquees.com or another printing place. I've never worked with unoriginal artwork, so I'm not exactly sure, to be honest. I'm guessing, from experience in other graphics fields, that the higher-res, the better.

Post by: compyislife on December 14, 2009, 12:27:58 am: Either will be fine. I am going to need to vectorize it later, anyways.
