Crystal Castles Kickplate Artwork
« on: January 23, 2011, 02:30:35 PM »
Does somebody know where I could buy a good repro of the CC kickplate art (=2 stickers) ?
If not could somebody maybe scan this part on his cab and measure it for me please?
...so I could print it myself and make the high resolution files available for the community.
Thanks already!

The sideart is available at Zorgs Vectorlib

http://vectorlib.free.fr/CrystalCastles/

Maybe you can "steal" some parts for the repro out of that, that saves alot of work  ;)

Thanks Etienne, that's also an idea and I can make it super close to the original.
But I need the measures at least... Muerto? Time Pilot? Help needed here, my batsignal bentleysignal is on!

Excellent, thanks a lot!!!
I think I can scan the artwork from the manual and use some parts of the side art to re-make it.
I'll start working on that next week.

Whenever you have time just a front picture of the kickplate would be great so I can use it as a template to help me put everything in the right position.
No hurries though.
Many thanks for that!

a guy on KLOV had the same problem. he used those fabulous sharpie pens to repaint each crystal individually - turned out G-R-E-A-T!!! if that were my CC, i'd touch the crystals up in a heartbeat as well, looks so much better in red!
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!
