Hey all,
i'm looking for a vectorized Bubbles control panel overlay...

i've started to hack up the multiwilliams cpo (sorry i don't know who to give credit to) to suit my multiwilliams (with only bubbles, robotron, joust, and splat, in an otherwise bubbles artwork cabinet) but i'd like some of the missing bubbles characters... as you can see i've only started the bottom half

if anyone has it or knows if it does or doesn't exist, i'd greatly appreciate it. i couldn't find it in the usual places. i'm also looking for the marquee... the inkjet places offer these so i'm hoping the vector files are out there

this is for my new bubbles on-the-cheap multiwilliams cab... for now i'm skipping the defenders because i hate the cluttered control panel (i'm already not looking forward to attempting joust with an 8-way, or bubbles with an off-center stick... but at least robotron will play properly...) and i can't imagine playing defender with a tall 8-way and a reverse button thats too far! or its buttons being anything but annoying on the other games

eventually i'll start a real thread for this project, but i scored an empty bubbles cab, on here i sourced the artwork i need (original bezel and header, original NOS cpo) and joystick to begin a restore, but i'm starting with it as a multiwilliams (even so i'll want it to look like a bubbles) with an old clay kit and 2084 pcbset i had... so i'm hoping this will altogether be a cheap project and a nice addition to my williams lineup, even if bubbles isn't high on my want list... and i plan to keep the NOS bubbles cpo with the cabinet to someday build a dedicated cp back up, or at least pass on to some future owner and encourage the possibility of a full bore restore someday

as you can see my goal with the MW cpo is simpler artwork, remove defenders, and mostly bubbles themed... on the top half which i haven't started, probably just the robotron joystick surround and the joust button wings... and i haven't decided on the start buttons yet (another bubbles guy with the pointed fingers would look silly, so maybe the "start: play" box from robotron between them, and "play single play dual" from joust beneath (and above them a box with "both:menu" or something to explain the return-to-menu technique?)

thanks

i guess no love for the sponge, scrub brush, and cockroach (i'm no artist/tracer, i've only learned how to use AI at a primitive level)

its looking a little bland, but i guess the bubbles one always was, bubbles guy is gonna get bigger, anyone have any recommendations for my multiwilliams bubbles cab with bubbles, robotron, joust, and splat

thanks

thanks for the link... i assumed that TIF file was a raster image and not a vector (from what i understand TIF's can contain both)

could you tell which? i'm only really interested if its already vectorized, but i don't want to pay/donate to become a member to download it if its just a raster scan

thanks
