Title: I need a small P-Shop favor
Post by: pharoah007 on September 29, 2012, 10:14:24 am
I need a blank "canvas" made and saved in P-Shop in the dimensions of the art I need to print.

I can populate this canvas with all the art myself, just need the canvas done.

Something like a blank pic with just the outline of my side "profile" of my cabinet and I can put the art on and have it printed.

If anyone is game, please let me know.

thanks.

Hi,

Here you go. I've attached both the PSD and a AI file. The files are zipped due to attachment size and extension restrictions.

Let me know if you need anything changed.

now the question is...

Where do I get this printed at a affordable price that ships to Canada?

I like that... however, the akuma & zangief at the bottom left don't really fit in with the rest.

Souldraw is a popular choice. 

Some people have mentioned minor problems with adhesion on some edges/corners. (May have been a cleaning/prep issue)  If you can wrap it around or secure it under t-molding, you should be fine.

Jammin0 used them for his Ninja Monkeys build. His Souldraw art recap is here (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,118228.msg1291025.html#msg1291025).

Thanks yet again Razzer.

I will get to this this, or next, weekend

I will be sure to post my results!



P.S.

I have a feeling these outlines are super easy to do, and I should be able to do it.   Any chance you could make up a quick "how to" for the artwork sticky.  there must be others like me who need a "canvas" sized before they can start "painting" ;)

OK Everyone I am back!

Had approx 8 weeks of work out of town so has to put this on hold.

All that is needed now is to get my art printed.  I have been in contact with souldraw and will be putting together a print package for them.

This is my last week of work until X-mas.  I will be sure to take my final measurements with me when I go home to see family for a week, this way I can get my order started for the art.

I am excited :)

Well everyone, I got the time to finish my art and then send it off to SoulDraw for printing.

here are some pics.  Entire order cost me 40$ Canadian shipped to my door.  There is a 4th HUGE CP overlay for another machine of mine not shown in the pics as well.

(http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y145/pharoah007/20130110_192730.jpg)

there are a few places where the art "lifted/bubbled" off the backing.  Is there anything I can do to fix this, or do I just install like this?
