Pixel Art Themed Bartop Arcade
-
My retropie bartop arcade.
Custom pixel art sides and laser cut control panel.
Let me know what you think. -
I tried to post this to projects and themes twice, but it keeps ending up in general discussion. Can a moderator move this over to the correct category?
** Edit: Thank you!!!***

There's not many cabs are as entertaining switched off, as they are switched on, but I think you've cracked it!
Could sit and look at that side-art for hours and still see something new!
Excellent job.
-
Yeah the art rocks!
-
@space-cadet @GtBFilms Thanks lots fellas!
I was glad i got to use my graphic design day job skills for something that's not a dumb advertisement for once, haha.
-
Very nice !!
-
@Capeman How about posting the artwork here so others can use it for there's Bartop Arcade's?
-
Wow, this must be the best artwork i've seen to date for a bartop machine! Would you share it, or is it strictly personal?
Kind regards from Denmark.
-
Man thats wicked! Great job!
-
Excellent work dude, love the fact you got Beavis and Butthead in there too! A friend of mine is also an artist and he's done a Day of The Tentacle themed cab. I've tried to get him to post it here, but he's busy doing about a million other things. I'll get a pic of it coz its pretty cool. As you say, if you've got some graphic design skills it's good to use them for something you really enjoy instead of another drab corporate logo.
This is what my mate did. I was pretty impressed by the finish.
-
Amazing artwork!.I'm building a personal bartop arcade, too. Would you mind to share the photoshop files?. I would be very thankful.
-
Very cool friend your project. Could you share the art?

I'm building a bartop as we speak and came across this... Just want to say FANTASTIC job. Its the first compilation piece that is done truly right. IMHO.
If you would sell/license a one-time use for my cabinet, let me know I would gladly pay for this, its THAT good. cheers. -
This looks great! I love the sides!

Great build.

Do you have detailed pictures of your panel?
-
Oh man, this is so awesome!
Any chance to get the printing files?

So this post inspired me a lot and I'm currently building a Kung Fury Cabinet.
One question: What did you use for the black bezel around the monitor? is that a sheet of melamine or something? trying to figure that out. I will post some pics if anyone wants to see it when done ;) -

a Kung Fury Cabinet
THIS I am looking forward to seeing!

@MaTTyDredZ I first used a sheet of white polystyrene that I had lying around, cut the screen shape out of it and spray painted it matte black. Then overlayed a sheet of clear acrylic over it. The acrylic is starting to get scratched and its hard to clean, so I'm going to replace it with glass soon. I found that at home stores like Home Depot sell window pane glass and glass cutters in their window section real cheap, its just a matter of cutting the right size.
