Retrorama Comic Theme

[ayayrun]

Hi @lipebello , I love this theme and really appreciate you creating and sharing it for everyone to use! I'm running a 4:3 front end compared to the 16:9 you provide in your artwork so I was wondering if you would be so kind to send me just the blue comic background so I can create my own smaller and more simple theme? It's the one behind the box art with a burst looking background.

Hello @ayayrun , you mean this one?

[ayayrun]

Close! But I mean just the blue square (first panel on page 2) in high enough res to stretch to 800 x 600?

[lipebello]

@ayayrun Just the original

[ayayrun]

Thank you so much! Is that just a paint brush that gives it that grunge effect on top of this?

[lipebello]

@ayayrun i use a watercolor layer that give the color this texture

[lipebello]

@hisshouburaiken Thanks for the original slogans

@lipebello That looks sweet. Can't wait for you to release it.

ETA???
Just playing. :)

I know you can't rush something this good

[ayayrun]

@lipebello Ok awesome that's all I need to recreate it :) Thanks again!

What's the status of this theme? Is there any updated version with systems like 3DO and Atari Jaguar?

Hi. I'm new to retropie, just got my first raspberry (a Pi 4), so as soon as retropie was relased for it, I've started to read and watch everything I've found. As soon as I came across the Retorama theme and associatted studd, I knew it would be the theme for the arcade cabine I'm building. Huge thanks to @lipebello, I can't even imagine the amount of effort and time put into creating such beatiful art.

By the way, will the theme in 3:4 format finally come out? That woule be graeat as I'm planning on using and old CRT TV for my cabinet.

Again, thanks to @lipebello for sharing this amazing work.

Cheers

@lipebello is a generous artist

@lipebello your retrorama theme is absolutely stunning! Thanks for sharing it.

Couple of questions.

1. I would love to have your game logo art for each system so that the @meleu launching art generator would pull those instead of the blank one.

2. How’s the update coming along? I Can’t Wait!

Cheers

Thanks for the nice comments, i'm still working on some updates for it, but i'm remaking the whole thing. I will be doing a 4:3 version, but some thing will need to be adapted, because i'm making some illustrations for arcades, collections and hack systems and manga covers for japanese systems. these will need to be rescaled for it to work.
I've also made a new intro (got tired of the old Marvel one, too comic book and less games). Now i don't need to drive to other city to work, i have some more time to work on it
