Bearing in mind how long it took me to get half decent marquees for my last one I'm not sure how much I want to get sucked down the hole of doing the same for bezel art though!

Really coincidental that you were the first to reply, as Blip was my primary inspiration for this project.  It is still the first bookmark in my arcade project folder  :) The attention to detail, color scheme, multiple control panels and dynamic marquee provided the motivation I needed to get started.  I will absolutely get some pics to post.

I read the Shapeshifter thread as well.  Very impressive indeed.  Makes me want to build a virtual pinball cabinet next  ;D


 I have only just completed the construction of the cabinet and am just starting to work on bezel art.  Unfortunately, I am lacking in the Photoshop skills department, so I pretty much have to make do with what I can find online.

Rather than hijack this thread, I went ahead posted pics here:

This is absolutely beautiful. I've been collecting inspiration and reference pics from this forum and the internet in general for close to 25 years now. I was away for a long time though (work, life etc) but came back about a month ago. I found this and.. wow. This is the first non-CRT project that made me think I could accept a flat screen cabinet. Just stunning. Everything about it.

I've bookmarked this and saved every picture into my inspiration folder for the eventual day I build my own. I've got the bug again now. Large part thanks to you and this project. Well done sir!
