Title: Help please! Moon Cresta cocktail instruction card (nichibutsu)
Post by: mikieboy70 on May 30, 2011, 12:17:48 PM
Hello folks,
Does anyone have 2 instruction cards for sale (the ones that go under the glass)?
My table is original but these are missing and seeing as the first part of my resto will be the top I thought I would ask the Wisdom of you guys. Repro ones would be fine if anyone can make them for me I would be happy to pay you of course.

Ive printed a couple of rough ones on my old Epson but they are far to crappy to use ;)

Can any one please tell me what size they should be so I have some idea what the top view should look like?

Can't waiting for my rest days so I can get going on this project and get my pics up

Cheers Mike

The cheapest would be to ask a copy shop to print this on cardboard for you:
http://arcadeartlibrary.com/arcade_art/details.php?image_id=1459 (http://arcadeartlibrary.com/arcade_art/details.php?image_id=1459)
If they print it 100%, the size should be perfect.

That's brilliant thanks for adding it to the Que

Had a quick go at removing the old black paint from the glass last night with my lady's nail varnish remover.. It's coming straight off easily ;)

Just did a little detail work, i started on the spaceship:
First lets add some guidelines  ::)

(http://www.opdenkelder.com/pics/mooncresta/01.jpg)

created the big yellow flamepart, and the flame particles out of equal squares with a black border

(http://www.opdenkelder.com/pics/mooncresta/02.jpg)

Hide the guides and put a blue background behind it and presto !, super tight !  :-*

(http://www.opdenkelder.com/pics/mooncresta/03.jpg)

Time for part I, II & III of the spaceship..

Later more  :arrow:

Im now going to start mame and play some moon cresta  ;)

Is that a mistake, or does that really need to spell "Supper Fly" instead of "Super Fly"  ???

should i correct that , or repro it as it is ?
