Thanks wp34,

Last night I sprayed the final coat of satin black enamel on the monitor beze. I also prayed the aluminum admin panel with a coat of clear laquer to help protect it.

Here are some previews.

I'm generally not a fan of admin panels, but this is amazing! Top quality work! :cheers:

Tonight I cut, drilled, and polished the aluminum angle for the marquee and got the artwork installed. It was pretty tricky trying to convince the artwork to lay flat. It has been sitting in the tube mailer for over 4 years!

Yip~ HOT very HOT! I likey a lot  :applaud:
My art is always free for you to download and modify as you see fit...
Why?... because I could never find any art I loved on the net. So I played around with Photoshop and wish to share it with the arcade community.

I put a darkade link up on my FB once it was complete.  You know how many of my friends opened an account for the soul purpose of busting my balls?  Zero.  Stands to reason that Mountain has some good friends and his build is better than mine  :D
