Space Chaser CP art project
« on: February 10, 2012, 11:07:42 PM »
Hi all!

I am trying to have a reproduction run on the Space Chaser CP art, but cannot find it anywhere. Liquidx from the Jamma+ -forums pointed me here as in you could probably be able
to assist in getting a picture / scan of the CP art ?

I know that this is my first post ever here, so I thought I could introduce myself a bit here too. I'm a 33 years old finnish arcade collector and was bitten by the bug in 2009.
I've stumbled across two arcade/warehouse hauls so far (not directly but via another person) and my total cab number is at 24, most of them stored away unfortunately.
The beginning of this year saw me found a company dedicated in reproduction of all sorts of arcade and the 1980s in general, related products. I'm slowly getting the business
started and opened a small webshop this monday.

The Space Chaser CP repro run would, of course, most probably end up for being sold through the webshop. However at this moment I'm mostly interested in the total process
of getting it into vector format since this hobby is getting to be more than just a hobby, it's becoming passion and through this webstore getting up and running I'm a bit closer
to living a dream  :)

Cheers,
-Toni

Thank you all for the warm welcome!  :)

Superully: Oh well, I should've guessed I didn't remember the put the URL to the shop, heheh, here it is:  www.reprocade.com
All prices include European-wide shipping costs.

Chrischris: That would be simply awesome, I hope you find it  :)

DarthNuno: Sorry, no Italy here but Finland. (My musician/demoscene alias is ferrara, though so that might sound italian  :D)
OK I will post pictures at some point in the near future, as soon as I have the time (which i don't have at the moment unfortunately)

OK I found it back but noticed that I never really finished the instructions card...  :oops:
Oh well, it's just text, I'll finish it tomorrow during my lunch break and send you the result.



I also dug up a custom version "in the style of" that I made a long time ago for a mame cab with 2X6 buttons:

Looks excellent! I'll eagerly wait for the finalized version with the instructions  :)

I've just finished my 28 hours (20hours work + 8 hours sleep) Atari Gauntlet -restoration "marathon" with my friend, and now going to get some deserved sleep.

Almost done Toni!
...and thanks for the comments  ;)

Meanwhile check the instructions on the custom CP, they are kinda custom too:

Does that ring a bell? :D

Here's the vecto for the Space Chaser CP .
(Zipped Illustrator file)
Also available on vectorlib soon.

I suggest to print it on a sheet of paper first to double check the file before printing on vinyl.

Good old school method was used for this one:

Ant pics??

Heheh, the joysticks still need refurbishing as the Valkyrie joystick is stuck and the others miss a direction or two.
Also the left side speaker is mute.

If you're on Facebook, all the pictures are on the Reprocade -pages with descriptions. Of course I understand if you're not on FB,
I'll try to make some time to sort something out so that everybody can see the pics.  :)

Great work, thank you! Now there's soon going to be at least one more happy Space Chaser owner  :)

Cheers!
