Control Panel & Monitor Bezel

Is there anyone doing custom/semi-custom artwork for control panels and monitor bezels?  I need both and have no artistic skills.

For the control panel I was thinking of something like this one (this is one someone else did) but I am open to varriations on the colors and graphics.  However, mine is a 4-player with a spinner, trackball, 5th joystick with restrictors for 2, 4, and diagnal games (like Pac-Man, Q-Bert, etc), as well as 4 MAME buttons at the top.  I can provide a pic of my panel as well.

And of course I would want the monitor bezel to match the control panel in color scheme etc.  as well as have instructions on how to use the system (i.e. OK = P1 left-right, etc.).

Anyone....anyone....

PLEASE!!!  I just need the files created for me, I will then deal with having them printed locally.  So all you need is your tallent and graphics software.

Wow designing a CP that large is a tall order.

Not to mention the file size is gonna be huge unless it is vector.

I could give it a shot but need exact measurements of your cp and monitor bezel and any details like directions on the bezel etc. ;D

That is one huge control panel. How deep is it? More than 2 feet?
