"Prototype" - Cabinet Artwork
« on: August 28, 2014, 12:08:58 PM »
Hi Guys
searching the interwebs today for bits and pieces and stumbled across this:
http://www.twistedpins.com/products/stencil_kits/?ProductID=131

Its a stencil kit of the "prototype" Galaxy cabinet artwork.
Much better artwork than what they ended up going with - would this be legitimate or just someones rendition?

Interested in your thoughts, contemplating using this instead if/when i redo the cabinet.

I would never use these stencils. I suppose the saving grace is that it is prototype, and the finished product is open to interpretation. It would not have to comply with original design.

Nino is that a reference to the quality of those stencils or the alternate artwork?

The stencils are not accurate or faithful to the original. Paragon and Fathom are nowhere near the original artwork. I only use Flipperescue stencils in any of my repaints.
