Need artwork favor for my cabinet...
« on: April 06, 2005, 10:50:30 am »
I just came up with the name for my machine and I was hoping someone could whip up a marquee and some side art for it. The name of my cab is "The All Nighter". The cabinet is black with red t-molding and a red trackball. If anyone wants to freestyle together something I would really be greatful. :D

What are you looking for? Something edgy and sharp, floaty and space-like, or techno-phile-ish? Give us something to work with. If it helps, just write down a list of words that you would use to describe the style of artwork you're looking for.
Signature tags are dumb.

I'm thinking something kinda neon-ish like a bar or stripclubs lights, it could be techno-phile-ish. Some words: The night life, Open 24 hrs, No sleep till your dead. If someone wants to set up a CPO also that would be cool although you don't have to. I have the same control panel as the "supercade". Thanks for the help.

Keep in mind, you can never use to much red.

I like that. I would like it to stand out a little more, maybe more of a neon glow to it. I was thinking maybe there should be something in the background but not sure what? Very nice job. Is there a way to maybe shift the letters where it almost looks cursive? Thanks for taking the time to help me out by the way(beggers can't be choosers) ;D

OK Made it more of a neon glow round the letters,  what do you mean by "Is there a way to maybe shift the letters where it almost looks cursive?"

What about incorporationg a street tuner car into the background; it doesnt even have to be real, maybe vector.  Just a thought.

This is the background that is currently there, but opacity is quite low.
