Thanks. Yes, that are the files. Luigi mentioned that the blue stripes should be parallel to the control panel edge side of the cabinet, but it's okay for me.

That was a joke!! It would make those sidearts perfect but of course it's OK

It looks very very nice !!!!!

Maybe a bit too shiny on the silver, but I'm quickly going to say that is AWESOME (those who will say that I only say so because my Q*bert is a bit shinier than original are dirty liars   )

No really it fits the theme perfectly.

There is one thing I wonder though.......what happened to the zero and the 8 ?
They look .......uhm......not entirely correct:





Talking Robotron side-arts and it's flyers, had anyone seen a Robotron upright with the side-art as pictured on this flyer ?

[level42]

OH MAN, only when I re-read my message I noticed:

Your zero and eight look like the cabaret side-art .....................!!!

[Wurstkopp]

It seems they used pics of unfinished artwork. Don't think the upright version artwork on the second flyer got ever produced.
Btw: The cabaret version looks so nice!!
The finished artwork of the US-type upright machines looked like this:

[level42]

Oh wow

I usually use flyers as a reference for my restorations...glad you didn't

I had no idea. TBH I prefer the 0 and 8 on the flyer......this version _did_ make it to the Euro version.

[Wurstkopp]

The PCB is working now! Wurst is happy.

[joeks]

Good work on the Robotron!
Glad you got the pcb working.

I bought silver paint last week (actually called aluminium).
Already tested it and it is really shiny too. Maybe a bit too much for my taste.
I might go for a light grey instead. And still haven't decided if I will keep the sideart and touch up or re-stencil. Hmmm..

Awesome work !
