@rawrzilla and kitsunisan - Good stuff from both of you. I only wish the hq renders were at least double in size but they can work very well with filters. Thanks =)
Can anybody make stick art for a Round 1 TE? I’d really like Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z in his super saiyan form. Like these

I’d like it with a dark blue background. I’m going to put yellow buttons and yellow battop. Thanks in advance (I’m really shitty w/photoshop)
i can probably work something out for u

Hope you guys like this one if you need the PSD hit me up
Edit: Now that I thought about it that sf4 font did look crappy on this I hope this new text I put on here is a bit better. Plus I switched the DMC logo with an older but better one.
Someone needs to destroy that sf4 font…
Nice stick but shouldn’t this be in the "Check Out My New Arcade Stick" Thread?
EDIT: nvm I found your post in the thread. PG. 47. But I would suggest you post the artwork template on here. Very nice design. Did you make it yourself?
Thank you so much!
Thank you, oh Lord. Will do so.
EDIT: I accidently deleted my previous post.
Oh great I’m back.
Any tips/changes/etc. that should be made? And any thoughts on how to put button labels on, or should I just get them etched by Art?

Found this Forum a couple of weeks ago, and it inspired me to do some art for the first time in years. So, I’ve just finished my Ragna Stick art for my TE. Couldn’t find a pic of Rags I wanted to use so I did a custom piece.
I think it maybe needs some writing under the Guide button block, but I haven’t been able to find anything suitable yet.
Any comments/ suggestions would be appreciated.
Oh, and thanks to Lord British for telling me how to post my art.

I like the character art you made, but I think the background is a little busy, and might look nice in a contrasting (rather than near-matching) colour. The red business coming out of his hand could use a smaller stroke as well. As for text under the guide button, “ARCADE FIGHTSTICK [WHATEVER] EDITION” is common because that’s what’s on the TE. You could also put just a simple “Ragna the Bloodedge” in a nice font, or the BlazBlue logo.
Do you know/ have the font for the “Arcade Fightstick” text? I have no idea what font it’s written in.
The “red business” stroke is because his power manifests as red with a thick red/black outline. But yeah, the background just kinda… happened that way. I did originally, believe it or not, plan on the design being a little more minimilist.
I’ll work on toning the BG colour down. Thanks for the suggestions, dude.
I assume you’re UK based? Where do you get lamilables printed here? I’ve been scouring the net for UK places but no-one seems to do them, at least, not unless I wanna bulk order…

The name’s confusing for people sometimes, I’m actually Canadian! I’m not a huge fan of lamilabels anyway, and since you have a TE I suggest getting a plexi panel for it. There are a million and one places to order them, but I’m not sure which have the best shipping rates to the UK.
Look I put button labels on the art. No idea how to line everything up properly though. Anyway, again, any tips or changes I should/could make to this?

Yeah lamilabels work alright but you do suffer a bit with the loss of surface quality over time. Mine hasnt like “scratched” yet, but there are little indentations in the lamination itself from where things would normally have scratched it. You can barely see it and only when you bend light over it, but it is there. biggest recommendation id give is to make sure its printed at a place that does good photo printing, and leave places like Kinkos and other print shops out of your search. Their printers didnt do my artwork a justice, and totally obliterated the colors on it. It still looks good, but doesnt credit the artists original work nearly as much as it should. Im looking forward to getting a plexi for it and printing it at a decent shop.
It obviously needs more cowbell.
i do have a fever…
****After Lord British’s suggestions, I changed a few things.
TE template with Blue BG:

TE in Red 'cos I really like it, and can’t decide between the blue and the red:

And because I’m considering replacing my TE with a Qanba Q4:
