IvanTT did some awesome arcade signs for my game room and I've finally gotten around to hanging and thought I'd show them off.

I'm still working on lighting and plan on 2 spot lights for the larger signs.. Though I'd really love to back light the dragon hoard portion with EL panels, but the cost of 16x16 el panels is crazy!! :mad:

And after seeing Phet's very well done lit up Galaxy Blue sign, I have some ideas to work on.

Here's the main entrance into the game area: (Never mind the Lost world pin in the middle of the room lol)

Here's the sign at the game room's back entry way:

One of the smaller signs over the doorway from one section of the game room to another:

Also did up a quick animation for display on a 17 inch LCD monitor and computer in the game room based on ideas of the digital photo frames (Cadillacmans idea I believe?)






Very impressed with the sign quality and workmanship! IvanTT is the guy to talk to for some really fantastic signs!!

Nice. Yours need red LED's. I'd lose the fox tapestry next to the big one though.


That's what I was thinking. I have several red led strips on order and will see how they look. Do you remember where you got yours? The LED's you have look so nice and bright.

I haven't found a new place for the tapestry just yet, but yes it clashes a bit there now.

I went on ebay, looked up 'LED strips' or something like that and got a bunch of Hong Kong sellers' auctions. I think I bought 8 - 8 inch strips for $19 shipped direct from HK. I'd buy more, but I am getting lazy and cheap and don't wanna spend any more money right now.
 
Pep boys sells led strips in the ricer section!

Nice signs - that first pic actually reminded me of a game room you might see at a hotel!

Looks great! So how was the party?

Red lighting will look really nice BTW and a coil of EL wire should back light the
plexi just fine.

Now you need a themed Tokens only and Arcade Rules sign

Party was great!! Its a rough time keeping the nieces and nephews from the games while eating.. and waiting for the slower adults to finish before they can go play. Well, waiting for a few of the adults. Most couldnt wait either to go down and get some games going.

Lots and lots of compliments on the signs! They couldn't believe they were custom made! Most ignored the video sign. Must be I did that bad of a job on it lol.

And yes, I will try the el wire idea and grab some LED's for fun too to see how it goes.

I DO need a token only sign, rules sign. Hmmm. I wonder who I can talk into doing those?

Now to find someone to do custom .984 tokens :hmmmm2: (cheap)
