My New Star Gazer Side Art
« on: October 04, 2003, 04:45:19 pm »
Just wondering what you guys think of my new side art I am thinking to put on the side of my mame cabinet (which I still havent finished)

Before I was thinking of doing the matrix thing, and like alot of you said after a while I would get bored with it ... which is right ... glad I didnt get it printed and put on the side of my cab ... dont get me wrong I LOVE THE MATRIX movies and cant wait tell the new one is out ...

This one is a guess a little more fitting so please be brutal and let me know what you think of this work in progress.


Incase some of you are interested here is the post I did for my matrix stuff

I think that MAME logo definitely has to be moved. It gets way too lost with the cab and galaxy (or whatever that is). I would say move it to the top because the top is just too boring. There is nothing up there really, and it isn't pleasing to the eye.

I also think that the pac-man maze blocks need a lot of work. It's hard to tell what they are in the version. I would make it so that you can tell without a doubt that it is a pac man level. Otherwise, just get rid of them.

I like the idea of the cabs on it, but as with the MAME logo, I think they get a bit washed out by the galaxy (again, whatever that thing is, I'm no astronomer :) )

I think this could turn out to be a decent piece of art, although it is definitely not my personal style. I hope I wasn't too harsh, but you did ask to be brutal, heh.  Like I said, this just isn't my cup of tea, so I'll prolly never like it, but I hope you'll at least take my opinions to heart because I think that if things were arranged better, it would improve the art a lot.

good luck
first off your and idiot

Man I love the internet, haha.
