Hi Folks,
Busy day at the office today... For you guys... I'm just off to London for a few days, but thought some thumbnails would be in order...

1. Berzerk Sideart (for Mahuti - tho I'd love to vector this one too)
<IMAGE DELETED - NOW IN VECTOR ART LIBRARY>

2. Dig-Dug Sideart (was requested, will use to clean up bezel, and probably happy to vector - battery on the laptop died this far but just a taster!)
<IMAGE DELETED - NOW IN VECTOR ART LIBRARY>

3. Burger Time side-art (was requested by Zorg)

4. Moon Patrol Sideart (was requested by zorg - but I'm a Williams Nut so *I* wanna do this baby - wont take long either) - need patching onto a full side of joust artwork to get the right dimensions first:
<IMAGE DELETED - NOW IN VECTOR ART LIBRARY>

5. Taito Space Invaders Side-art (already hsown, just sorta thought i better centralise my WIP. Currently Zorg and I are gonna have a go at this, I've started and done the space ships and hav a alien (thanks zorg), will take up Mahutis idea for a WIP place as all these as compression 8 JPGs are 20 meg odd)

Whilst rummaging around retrokade pulling these out I noticed some more cabs that deserve scanning and I will do for the cause... My lsit so far is:
i) Star Castle Sideart
ii) Atari Xevious Sideart
iii) Atari Crystal Castle Sideart
iv) 'Exploding williams' sideart - all my cabs are rough with this and it looks near impossible to vector, but I hope to get the big tracer-cheeses involved as this ones personal

v) Stern Scramble Sideart (bezel is a *must folks - help with a scan of this if you can!!!)
vi) Midway Space Invaders?

Stuff I'd love to do but my scanner wont work with
i) Moon Patrol Bezel
ii) Taito Space Invader Bezel
iii) Tapper Bezel
iv) in fact, any glass object

Ok, massive post with lost of pics, hope everyones keen as mustard - P.S. RKD has 150-odd more dedicated - check www.retrokade.com or my entry on vaps if your after something... Just wish a glass scaner could be found like my HP4600 for the cause!

regards, Rav

PS, sorry I've been so slow lately, I was supposed to help Zorg and some others here and there, but my business is out of control busy right now... I thought I'd be able to take a month off around Christmas, but no luck... Anyway, I'll get the FTP taken care of, but I won't be making a lot of movement on any task that takes more than a few minutes of concentration a day until at least after Xmas.

Actually ended up with a spare hour before shooting off so seeing Mahutis busy, I've vectored Berzerk.

Enjoy!

OK, I've changed the password for share.localarcade.com, and I'll be PMing you both with it shortly.

I also established transfer.localarcade.com for all of the users that need to transfer work to me, which will take the place of share.localarcade.com. I'll post the password and username for that whenever appropriate.

thank's some more tracing in perspective
I don't know if my wife will thank you too

yelahttam · « **Reply #18 on:** January 14, 2005, 05:39:09 pm »

I'm a new member, and I'm working on art for a XEVIOUS cabinet. Could I have access to the ftp site, or could someone e-mail me the hi-res scans of the Xevious sideart? Thanks! - mh

Ravage · « **Reply #19 on:** January 24, 2005, 09:09:58 pm »

Damn... Half-Life 2s sucked hours out of me - I knew it would! Heh

And what time I had put in was on Wiz Wor sideart to find someone else is further ahead than me! Anyhow, that serves me right hey? :p

Anyhow, just a quick note to say I'm back on the scene... Did you get the xevious file or do you still need it?
Regards
Rav

yelahttam · « **Reply #20 on:** January 25, 2005, 05:37:14 pm »

I still need any and all hi-res scans of Xevious side-art, marquees, etc. You can e-mail me at yelahttam@mindspring.com with ftp info, thanks! - mh

zorg · « **Reply #21 on:** January 26, 2005, 05:20:40 am »

bad news guys ;-)

after some trouble at work, and a lot of angry aout myself, I ended broking my rigth hand. so vectorisation from my part will take a break....

I'll be back tracing as soon as possible (I guess it will be good for my hand re-education)

sorry I tried to upp the file on a ftp server I have acces to, but i can't up file bigger than 75 Mb, and the ful scan is 90Mb

I'll try to cut the file in 2 pieces and up them. If I succed with my broken hand, I'll up the parts and let you know where to dl the file

megashock5 · « **Reply #23 on:** January 27, 2005, 08:53:49 am »

Are you looking for people to vectorize these? I could probably do Black Widow.

Let me know!

Thanks so much for the XEVIOUS side art, I'm vectorising it, but it will obviously take a little while. Doe sanybody have a good flat shot of the marquee and bezel from XEVIOUS as well? - mh

humm if the vector version you are doing is half as nice as the art displayed on your pages, it will be extraordinary, I'm impatient to see the result.

I have a repro marquee unapplied... When I get a chance I'll scan it - tho is there ay point as you can buy repros already?

I'll look how easy it is to get the cardboard bezel out and It it'll lay flat
