HORI EX2 Custom Designed Skins
« on: October 27, 2013, 12:24:30 am »
Picked up a few fight sticks, one of which is the HORI EX2.
Wanted it to look a lil more like my Mad Catz so I did these up.

Really like the painterly look of them, but before you print make sure you remove the "wallpaper" text in the upper right and lower right corners of designs 1, 2, and 4.  I'm not super familiar with the newer fighting games... are the woman with the chains and the dude with the spandex suit originally from Final Fight that have been incorporated into the game?  If so that's pretty cool!

So once again, we find that evil of the past seeps into the present like salad dressing through cheap wax paper, mixing memory and desire.

Thanks guys.
I do what I can.
I'll clean these up and prep them soon.
I'd like to modify my stick to look more "bad ass."

The only design where I noticed something in the bottom was the 1st one.

edit - they are indeed characters from Final Fight.

First design has watermark on lower right, then the second and fourth designs have watermark on upper right.  Very cool that it contains Final Fight characters... I'll have to check that game out!

Also the joystick button hole on all of them has some extra black lines coming out of it that should be removed also while cleaning them up.

Most of what was mentioned I noticed and plan on taking care of.
I just use the button holes/joystick hole as a guide.
When I cut it from the layer it was not clean, IE - the extra black junk.

Glad people like the designs.
