Pleae critique my cp artwork!
AceTKK:
Well, it's finally finished. Before printing I would like to get some suggestions and feedback from all the people who helped me so much. I will be the first to admit that it is a *blatant* rip-off of Motorfish's amazing design (http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=10;action=display;threadid=3066) but I did actually redraw it from scratch myself. I started in AutoCAD to produce the geometric figures I wanted. Then I exported into Illustrator 10 and added coloration to the paths. Finally, I finished up in Photoshop 6 by adding the fills, text, and background layers. I think it came out pretty well, what do you think?
AceTKK:
Oh, and I have a question for anyone with printing experience. Can a high-quality printer reproduce the transparent fill around the joysticks with acceptable results?
I can always go back and make it solid, but it looks much better at 50% opacity. FYI the original image is 31" x 15" at 300 ppi.

CitznFish:
have you posted this before/ i swear I saw this a month ago on this message board. ???
AceTKK:
He-he, I guarantee you're thinking of Motorfish's panel. Check the link at the top of the thread.
In the spirit of imitation being the greatest form of flattery I hope Motorfish doesn't mind the similarity of my design. I added some personal touches and changed some of the coloration but the actual control layout is almost identical.
I owe thanks to oscar controls as well for his great reproduction of the MAME logo (www.oscarcontrols.com).
