Title: Zookeeper Sideart and frontart
Post by: shirkle on October 08, 2006, 08:38:39 am

I remember about a year ago people were working on redoing Zookeeper artwork.  Any updates on how that's going? 
Is it done and available somewhere?


I know I'll be in need of artwork soon, and it would be great if sideart was available so that I could get stencils made or have vinyl sideart printed.  I'm not looking forward to repainting it by hand (cabinet is painted black right now..I'm sure the stripping process will leave me with some work to do).

I guess I'm the one that started tracing you're talking about.

TomBombaci contacted me and asked the file, and told me that I will publish the final art when released. as far as I know he have not published the art.

I'll add the zookeeper finishing on my todo list. you can check the current status here http://edeveaud.free.fr/WIP (http://edeveaud.free.fr/WIP) (don't pay attention to the colors, it will be matched when finished)

just a note, be patient  ;D

Looks awesome so far!!  I can't wait (but obviously will  :)) for this to be finished. 

ProK...can you make stencils of this when finished?

sure.. there's some really fine details there, i'll need to test it first to see if the machine can cut that small bit I don't really see a problem.

I got my Zookeeper cabinet last night and the front panel paint stripped perfectly( http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v499/shirkle/Picture043-1.jpg ), but the sides are going terribly. 

I'm glad you're working on this, because I know for sure I'll need it now.

Bumping an old thread just to get it back in zorgs head.  :)

By the way, zorg, if you don't have time, would you mind sending the files to someone if I can find a willing artist to finish the job?

of course, I'll pm you to let you know where to grab the file.

edited: please note that I will not share the sideart scan, this one was provided to me regarding I'll keep it private. I may distribute the vector freely but have to keep the original scan.

That's an odd request.

I'd appreciate the PM on where to get the file.  Thanks zorg!

Anyone else willing to take over this project?  I have several guys from over at klov.com who would be willing to take nice hi-res photos of their sideart for someone to trace.  I have no tracing skills or I'd be doing it myself.

Bump. 
My Zookeeper is now working, but looking hideous.  Any chance of these being finished or shared for others to finish?
