marquee opinions needed

This is my 5th attempt at a marquee. I have been trying to make one to match my cab for about a month with little luck. Please tell me what you think. Its hard to see but the back ground is black diamond plate. The marquee in the pic is one I printed and taped together, I would like some feedback before I have it professionaly printed on vinyl

That's funny... I almost got the same Marquee design.
I'll post my cabinet on this forum when it is finished. It's finished for about 98% now.
To answer your question, I like your marquee alot

It's good!
Matching the control panel
was probably the right move.
The side art on your cab is
just so awesome that you barely
notice anything else.

Very beautiful sideart and cab
I my opinion the lettering is a little small, and you could use a bigger font.

You might try putting a drop shadow behind the title. Would probably make it 'pop' a little more, and give the image a little bit of depth.
Otherwise, I think it looks real good!

I'd just replace the Capcom logo with one without the glare...

thanks everyone, Im not much of an artist, and to be honest I had to look up the definition of drop shadow. I gave it a try, please let me know what you think.

I like the idea and the overall design of the marquee but I think the background should be a mixture of the backgrounds you have for the side art.
