Got a nice surprise sitting in my email when I got in last night to check. Rich just got the films back for the Agent X kickplate artwork for the complete package he is printing for Rick Ford.

Pengo Bezel Color Separations

I’ve been in one mind set for the last couple of days since I finished the Atari Football sideart and Mappy kickplate artwork, so today I just went ahead and did the color separations on the Pengo bezel artwork file. (more…)


Mappy Color Separations Finished

Hot day outside. Good day to sit in the basement and work on vector arcade game artwork. Simple and easy, not like the Pengo control panel artwork separations, the color separations for the Mappy kickplate artwork were quick and to the point. (more…)


Pengo Control Panel Color Separations

The Pengo control panel was the definitely the hardest piece of arcade artwork I have worked on to date when it comes to color separations. I made myself sit down yesterday and crank through it. (more…)
