Thanks for the quick response. The paper I’m using is definitely high grade matte photo paper, but I will try it in CMYK.
Also, do you know if I need a special black ink cartridge specifically for printing on matte paper? From what I’ve read this might also be a problem.
Check your pm’s sir, and let me know what you think. If you need something changed message me back
It’s fine - like you said, the image is simple and various tricks can be used to make it upscale well - it’ll look fine
I’m just greedy for resolution whenever I can get it - I suspect most graphic artists are.
anyone??
If you’re still taking requests, I’d like to add one to your to-do list if it’s possible.
I’d love to see a hi resolution Hanzo Hattori or an entire Samurai Shodown Cast with Title Logo, PSD please!
Great work!
Here’s my custom template for the SE stick, modeled after the legendary Astro City stick:
The original template’s not mine. I only edited it for the fightstick template. Either way, enjoy ;)!
where is the original art for these these from? I LOVE THE STYLE … tell me there is more done with that cute anime look … perhaps cammy??
You guys are over-thinking this. Just open it up in Illustrator and create a Live Trace of it. This will create a vector (scalable to any size without losing quality). Mess with the sliders until you’re satisfied with the result. Normally I don’t recommend using this tool, but the shapes are so simplistic here that it should render near-identical.
The printed outcome will be superbly clean.
If you’re not sure how to use Live Trace (trust me, it’s very easy), Google it.
Thanks for the illustrator tip - sounds like a winner. I got lots of little vector-appropriate shaped that I can do this to - I was going to look up how to convert to vector, but you saved me the trouble - thanks!
That’s a really cool template, man. Good job.
Do you mind if I ask where you got the brush for the brush work you did under the buttons? I’d appreciate it. Thanks.
Hey people, I’m new here, getting back into SF cause of 4 and saw this thread here. I have made some SE temps’ and I am working on some TE ones…Let me know what you guys think…

Dikrodnum, I love the first two. The third one would maybe work better if the artwork was lower on the stick.
Oh, but a small suggestion for # 2: maybe some kind of very light background pattern on the right somewhere? Or maybe the all white background works, I don’t know.
how about a fei long design, or even better… a bruce lee one.
So are you guys just editing the template with Photoshop and saving it to a flash drive and taking it to a print shop? Thats what I plan to do , any feed back would be killer. I kinda suck with Photoshop though, but if I can get it to print nice, it should work out ok I guess…
I can not seem to find any info on how to replace (or place over the original sticker) new art for the SE stick. I do not want to take the OG sticker off. I want to know if static paper or some sort of tacky paper would work.
Chaghatai, have you gotten the chance to put abel’s name on the template?
now that i look at it i will need plexi glass for the art?
