Zaccaria/Seevend/NSM Zaxxon marque restoration
« on: August 21, 2012, 06:39:09 AM »
Hi,

Moved on to the next cab to fix - this is a very nice all original Zaccaria/Seevend/NSM Zaxxon, native German by the looks of it:

I will be scanning in the control panel, of course :) The only artwork problem is that the glass marque has been fractured, thankfully not completely shattered:




As with the Lazarian marque, I'm looking for help restoring the artwork to make a replacement. This ones a bit simpler than Lazarian, though. The 300DPI scans of the pieces are in the zip below. Interested in doing another, Mikonos? ;D

Thanks,

Paul.

A very unique cab, I have never seen like this before.
Is there any dedicated sideart on this one?

The side art is the space station side art, same as on the flyer:

Make sence, i only know of a few dedicated sidearts on the zacc mini;
Crazy kong, Fitter, Cat'n'Mouse Pac'n'Paint and ofcourse frogger.

I think the rest uses the "generic" starsplash or spacestation.

The Full uprights have more sidearts afaik

I've never seen dedicated Cat'n'Mouse side artwork - do you mean Pac'n'Paint?

No takers to combine the Zaxxon marque images into one?

Scanned in the control panel overlay:

Oh, I don't mean the whole nine yards, vectorizing etc. I'd be happy with the two marque files combined into one image file. My rudimentary skills with MS Paint are probably enough to touch up the join to get a good repro art set out of it. It's no where near as complicated as Lazarian :)

Yeah you beat me timewise  :D

i was trying veryfast, but realised i needed to make the stitching part "transparent", and for that i did'nt have the time today...

and then i saw your reply, which is great ofcourse  :spaceace:

Here is what happens when you dont make that part transparent:
