Hi guys, I've been a long time lurker here but this is my first post.
I've recently purchased a reproduction Nintendo cabinet from Troy at
http://www.arcadeworx.com.au/ in Australia.
Rather than do a Donkey Kong or Mario Bros or something I decided to go with Mario vs Donkey Kong as I really liked the artwork from the GBA game of the same name.
As I don't have lots of room at home for lots of cabs I'm going for a control panel that has two joysticks, 6 buttons each plus squeeze in a trackball and spinner.
Any way here some of the artwork I'm going to use.

Once finished this is where it's going to sit.

Then I decided I would pull it apart to paint it, should have done this before I put it together the first time.
First coat of primer MDF primer going on.
