Two Marquees - RED and BLUE
« on: August 11, 2004, 07:12:02 am »
I've decided to completely redo my original lowboy (cabarat) cabinet as well as fix up the one I currently have at work.  Here are the Marquees I have designed for them.

The first cabinet is being re-painted with red sides, black T-Molding and Red buttons on a black CPO.  The Marquee for it is this one:



The cabinet at work is all black with Chrome T-Molding and Blue and black buttons.  I have decided to use the same Marquee, but with more of a blue colour to it.  (and yes this cab has a very thin place for the Marquee!)



I'm pretty happy with both of them, except perhaps the HULK on the Blue one.  The green colour doesnt seem to fit with all the blue.  I was wondering if there is another blue coloured (or part blue) character from the Marvel guys that I could use instead??

How about the grey hulk?
Beast
Night Crawler

Nick Fury

Anyone else in Xmen with the blue uniform.
Anyone in the fantastic four with blue uniform.

Venom was occasionally colored with a blue to show details...
Blackhawk.
Punisher
How about Batman?

Warmachine would be a good pick for the Hulk spot.

Where did you get those character images? Especially the Captain America?

Go for something like this instead of covering faces with the logo 8)
You get the idea.

Thanks for the replies, I'll try some other characters in place of hulk and see how it looks.

SNAAKE:  I hadn't thought of displaying them that way!  I'll play around with that too.

All the pics came from: http://cp-systems2turbo.emuunlim.com/index.php?cps2x=wallpaper&album=Marvel_Vs_CAPCOM_2&sortby=name&order=asc

I personally like the hulk in the blue one. It adds just enough contrast to the piece, that it makes it stand out even more in my opinion(gives it a balance).

Would you happen to be willing to share this artwork?  My little bro's cab is in desparate need of a good marquee..  I bought him some X-Men: Children of the Atom sideart, and think this would go nicely  :)

What dimensions are the marquee?

THANX!!
