High gang,  dropped off of this Topic for a little while while doing my build with a buddy of mine.  Cabinet together, primed and painted black.  I'm installing PC, Sound system, Fans and all the button along with a VirtuaPin controller board and Digital Plunger.  My order is in for my WideBody rails legs, coin door, glass trim etc.....  so I'm about 3 weeks out to having a completed machine without my graphics.  I took Stuzza Pinball Universe graphic and modified it with some additional Game graphics and swiched the Starfield background.  Let me know your thoughts on my editions.  I'm going to take the suggestions and make one last mod before printing.

 

So any suggestion would be welcome.  Thanks to all who critisize or participate.

 

 

Firstly well done and it's great that you have found my artwork useful.  I'm happy people are taking these and modifying to their own liking.  A few tips:

1. All the elements are too evenly distributed.  ie. there is nothing drawing your eye to any particular part.  if you look on my original version I used the galaxy symbol to help focus your eye on the centre point.   The company logos were then coming off of this symbol and the rest floating around.

2. Some of your game logos have the white glow effect and others do not.  Change all of them to have it for consistency.

3. Try and centre your galaxy logo in the back box better.  Also note that you can see the edge of the graphic you used for the galaxy in the backbox.  use the Gradient fade effect to blend it in to the empty black space.

4. The spacing between the words pinball and universe looks a bit too far, try pulling them in towards each other a bit more.

5.  The bride of pinbot graphic is too square.  Try and find another one with her cut out instead.

Wow, thanks Stuzza.  I actually have a version where I'm cleaning up the glow effect around the rest of the logo's.  I'm playing with putting your galaxy symbol back on with the lettering moved to the Front.  I've also changed the lettering to a Blue spectrum to match the Fan light color.  I have 3 large 200mm fans (w bottom evenly posistioned and one on backbox).  they will provide a little ambient lighting and it's blue.  So I'm switching the lettering to that color.  I see what you mean about backbox and I'll try to find that option.  I've been using a trial of Photoshop Element and will probably purchase.  I'll play with moving lettering after adding the Galaxy arches again.

 

I've tried finding a better Pinbot but have failed.  Anyone have a good one to be included in my Cabinet Decal?  Stuzza could you pull her image out of the original art of a Pinbot machine?

 

I was expecting comments like busy or too dark etc.... Appreciate the detailed look you provided to clean this up to a final draft.  Thanks again Stuzza.

Here is a rough version of the pride of pinbot lying down that I auto traced in illustrator. http://1drv.ms/OSpI8w

Should be ok for what you need it for.

STUZZA!!!! How about a Harley Quinn Pin ???????????

 

Fingers crossed ^10000000000000

[Harkerad]

Stuzza thanks again. That looks pretty good to me. I'll add that to the decal. Remove the other and make some of the suggested changes. I'll post another rendition soon.

Stuzza, you are awsome!!!
With so much designs you came up with it is really hard to decide
My choice is one of the very first ones, Virtual Pinball Lightning Art.
May I ask to have this in the outdated CS3 format? My Photoshop CS3 immediately crashes if I try to open your shared file.

Thanks a lot

I don't see an option in CS6 to save as a CS3 format?  I'm sure someone else here managed to open the files in an older photoshop, but I have never tried myself.  Maybe try downloading the Trial version of CS6 to try and save it out in a compatible format.

I used CS2 to open and modify the files that have been posted here without issues ... I did notice a big delay when trying to open on my underpowered laptop but no crashes

Here is the artwork that I used from Stuzza and Modded with PS CS2... It is now printed and installed on my Cab and now I can say that my Cab is 99.5% done ... I need to finish the topper ...

 

 Thank you Stuzza for making this great art and giving it away for everyone to enjoy.

Sorry for the lack of any further artwork but I've been busy working on some paid work and a friends cab.  Hopefully I'll get back into some more art soon.  Anyway here is a small piece of art that some might want which was requested by Mystico.  This sticker is for the small rectangle area on the front of a pinball coindoor.

Wow - I was trying to figure out what artwork I wanted on my pin I just started building and I found this thread!

These are awesome!!!!  So many good ones it's hard to decide what to theme my cabinet :-)

Any chance you will be releasing that start wars one to the general public?  If so, I may wait for it.

 

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

 

Now I need to figure out how to scale them to my cab (32" playfield) and where to go to get them printed :-)

Thank you again stuzza!!!!!!

Here is an early draft of my take on an Attack From Mars style theme.  "Pinball Invasion".  Still a bit of work to do but coming along nicely.

 

Also as a side note I am changing my Photoshop layout to be the correct dimensions for the Williams Standard Body cab as give on this site.  I have also changed the colour profile to CMYK as apparently most printers prefer that.

Hi,

 

I'm (desperately) looking for the Addams family Cabinet Artwork.

Any chance to get it?

 

Thanks in advance.

This thread is for original fan made cabinet art.  For actual licensed original art you will need to contact a pinball parts supplier.

[herve]

I'm not especially looking for the 100% original artworks.

So, if someone has done something with the "Addams Family" theme, I'm interested
