Title: CPO artwork WIP: Please give feedback and critiques
Post by: mgb on September 02, 2010, 12:48:50 am

I'm working on my second controller and would love to have feedback on where I'm going with the CPO.
I have had a real mental block on the cpo artwork and finally started making some progress this week.

I am going for a simple layout with Sanwa JLWs, a 2.25" trackball and a spinner. all of my buttons will be lit with GGG RGBs.
My top 3 buttons will be 1 & 2 player starts with a pause/ shift button in the middle.

This artwork is still in progress and I would really appreciate some feedback on what I've got so far and where to go with it. I am going for a classic "arcadey" feel.

Thanks

that spinner should be up more i feel it being on the line would look weird but nice job overall

I'm gonna experiment with the spinner. I'm probably gonna frame it with that line.
thanks

Thanks for your input guys.
 I'm using vector shapes in Paint Shop Pro X.

I'm going for a retro feel with some style.
