You'll have to excuse me if i'm a little hyper active. I've had a bit too much coffee today and not only that my logo stencil just arrived! Check it out!!!!!

Stencil!

Thanks to the very fast and very cool people at lasermade I now have a super duper funky 6mm perspex stencil I can use to spray my logo onto the sides of the arcade machine and anything else I deem fit for it :) So there we go things ARE in fact finally starting to move along! Wooo!

Things are finally starting to move along. Today I sent through the order for my logo stencil, and hopefully should have that back this week or next. There's a long weekend the weekend after the one coming up, which we're heading up to Nelson Bay for. My plan is to start doing some work on the machine then.

I'm really happy with how the design is coming along, i'm going through all the little things to make sure everything will work perfectly. So there we go, things are finally starting to move along.

I haven't posted about the arcade machine in a while, mainly because I haven't had the time to do any work on it. I have started finalising the plans and hope to begin construction over the next month.

I started playing around with the design in Illustrator, and am starting to have something that I really like. You can view the full size version of that image here. Illustrator does a great job of the perspective thanks to the 3D extrude and bevel tool. I fudged the shadow, but it's looking nice :)

I want to keep the whole thing as simple as possible with very clean lines, no t-molding or any of that plastic crap.

So what do you think of the design?
