New Versus City art

Post by FcoBenitez »

Guys, I have a "New Versus City" bootleg cab of sorts (don't ask - these cabs were really popular here in South America), which is basically a NVC lookalike with **** arts and different monitor, etc. Anyway, I'm looking to make it look like a real New Versus City, even when its just one cab. As you guys might know, there are almost no good quality photos on the internet, and thats why I came here for your help. If you guys have a New Versus city cab, could you please share some pics of the different arts (bezel, sidearts, small stickers), so I can reproduce them? Of course I will upload them to the wiki when it's done. Hopefully you guys can help me.

There is some at the bottom of this page.

Not a great resolution but you could probably vectorise it. Or ask the author.

Not sure what your guy is on about. Even the .jpg with compression artifacts from ArtStation looks plenty fine vectoring. The only problem I see is that you're working off someone else's approximation. So the final result will only be as good as the one done by whoever did the art. Did the original artist work off scans or did he just eyeball the art from pictures / an actual cab?

Hrvat9, did I understand correctly that you got some images from the original artist, KrisTwum?

That's a great start. Thanks Flinnster. I'll work vectoring the logo this weekend.
Oh and BTW, I'm no Mikonos so don't worry :) I won't run away with the files. By Mikonos.

I was working on doing a custom version for my mini linkup cabs project.
I pretty much have the font for 'Versus' sorted, so don't waste too much time vectorising that.
Doing the 'CITY' part is the harder one... I never managed to find that sketchy brushed outline swish SFIV style font :cry:
