Alaskacade ideas
« on: March 16, 2004, 09:57:26 pm »
Hey everyone,

I'm trying to create my own Alaska Mame marquee. I'll have a snowy landscape with some igloos, the northern lights in the sky, maybe spelling out "Alaskacade", or "Alaskan Mame". I want to put in all of the snowy or icy video game characters I can think of, too. The only problem is, I can't think of many... And the ones I can think of are all Nintendo guys. Suggestions?

How about Sasquatch from Darkstalkers or Pengo?

That's a cool pic.

OH, and don't use 'alaskan mame' under any circumstances.

Using the word MAME in a marquee when you only have one cabinet is a bit silly in my opinion ;D

I like your alaskacade or alaskarcade better. I like drawing on the yeti / sasquatch theme.

Ok, what do you think of this for lettering? It'll say Alaskacade on a starry background.

That is some cool lettering. With the starry background I think it will look great. I can't wait to see the finshed product. If I put letters like that my cab down here people would think it was reefercade.

That would look great with a sky background, black starry on top graduated to a dark blue with a mountain silouette on the bottom.  If you could vary the colors in the lettering it will look like northern lights.  Very cool.
Next I'll be on fries, and that's when the big money starts rolling in.

On a bad night, that is what they look like, green I mean.  They can surely get more spectaular though.  I watched a lot of green nights in Anchorage.  Don't miss the cold though.

Dude, that's too much! Very cool. How much do you want for a full sized marquee? Like 27"X8"
Way cool

Silver Surfer is on the X-Men fighter.  Rimaruru on Samurai Showdown III+ uses ice as a weapon.  Glacius from Killer Instinct is made of ice.  It's going to be hard to beat Sasquatch, but just thought I'd share some other characters I know are associated with ice.
