      @Riverstorm I found several pictures of original cabinets. Doesnt look like there was any art around the screen itself.

        @Riverstorm Seems no bezel, but with good quality side art and cpo I could create an "original art based" overlay. Some Arcade art Print service sites are selling prints so high res scans do exist.

        Currently quite busy with restoring Exidy's Venture and Crash bezels; once finalized I may give Battletoads overlay a try.

          @quicksilver - Thanks, nice pic. I see that it says "4 player Battletoads - 1 million dollars!" in the corner on a note card. I can't quite read the rest but it looks like a name and number. Spendy cab! I wonder what the 4th player is about as it's normally only 3 players?

          @UDb23 - I'm fine with the above bezels so no hurry here I just wanted to offer those alternate bezels until the original came along but since one doesn't exist it looks like you get creative control to design it however you wish. :)

            @Riverstorm yea I was wondering about that note myself as there are clearly only 3 sets of controls on the cabinet.

              @UDb23 I love your original Burning Force bezel! Well done! I make realistic looking arcade bezels for Mame. Could I use this bezel with your permission. I'd give you credit of course.

                @Orionsangel thanks. Sure you can use it. Your realistic bezels look great.
                btw noticed back in July you made a realistic bezel out of my (at that time) unfinished sky soldiers restoration @mameworld. I'd suggest you use the final one.

                      All my artwork for bezels/overlays can be found in my github Repo.
                      Burning force is here.

                          Of course ! Been very busy for some months but also never stopped having fun in restoring arcade artwork meanwhile. Therefore a significant number of new overlays, based on high res scans, will be coming soon. Some of these quite rare. Sky Soldiers being first.
