nivenj Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Hi All, Am going to be attempting my own Hyperspin build, from the ground up so hopefully lots of you that have done it before will be able to help me and give me a few pointers. I'm designing the cabinet layout and will be getting all the panels cnc cut. The theme I am going for is a Deadpool theme, so black and red as the main theme colours. What do you think of this as the side panels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylecp1979 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I think it looks pretty sweet!!!! Welcome to hyperspin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalzoic Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I like your idea. Just keep working on the layout until it all flows together well and looks like it all fits together. For the art make sure it's hi-res enough to be blown up large, you'll also need it to all be at 300dpi, keep your color set to RGB and make absolutely certain your blacks all match so none print as "really dark gray".

Frank Drebin Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Theme and artwork looks great. I'm just wondering if the marquee area looks a bit "off". Too much overhang I think. Maybe leave a little extra on the top/add another angle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nivenj Posted April 21, 2016 Author Share Posted April 21, 2016 not sure that would work. The sloped area is the 32" lcd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalzoic Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Maybe just more of a gradual curve transitioning that spot. Just like you have below the control panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metalzoic Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 That does look better. Try it with a curve into the marquee area instead of the hard 7 corner to see how it looks. And what's up with that render? The perspective looks really off, or is that an optical illusion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what's up with that render? The perspective looks really off, or is that an optical illusion? Yeah, its just the render. The actual design is spot on, in terms of physical. The reason there is a hard corner on the marquee area is I want the speakers in the marquee area pointing straight down so need the overhang to accommodate the speakers and grille. (Ignore the joystick placement, its now recessed so more of the stick comes out the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalzoic Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Oh I just meant on the outside panels of the cab where your t-molding will run, leaving the interior space flat just like you have shown.. I was thinking if you took out that hard indent and instead curved it (matching the same curve you have underneath the control panel) it might unify the overall design. EDIT: And if you are planning on lightguns you should bolt actual, real holsters to the sides similar to what he has. Ha! Would be cool with this cab theme.

nivenj Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 Thats a great idea...even if i don't use them!! Interesting, just looked into this....Deadpools guns are Desert Eagles....although it would seem owning, or importing anything that looks realistic would be illegal in the uk, even if they are for use in an arcade cabinet. Anyone from UK ever done something similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalzoic Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Are airsoft guns illegal there? Sent from my SM-G935V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nivenj Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 not illegal, but you need to be a member of a airsoft club, attend 3 meetings and then you can purchase an RFI, but you have to re-qualify each year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. They sell them at the gas stations and sporting goods stores here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
