Got my hands on a beater tapper. Working through the process to making sure it plays perfectly. It is my wife's favorite game so she is adding her touches to it :)

Dude, that looks amazing.

So much better than the freaky color tapper art!

She did a good job with painting it. I like the colour choice.

I agree with Charles Kline about the side art... I find the more common side art has better facial proportions. The scene also has a more appropriate style, better perspective, balance & composition.
 
Congrats, y'all deserve it and a good canvas for the artist. Post some pictures of her work on the pins.. I remember a bad ass junkyard buss and thought she did a terminator. Ms. Top button got talent
 
The thing that is most impressive and doesn't immediately jump out because it just looks right is the matching of the brown on the faded to green section to the non faded section. Really well done.
 
Looks great! Never realized the cowboys walking into the saloon doors till now with the added color, never really liked the other color version side art, bartender was kinda cheesy
 
The color side art looks as classic as the game itself. Awesome work +1
 
And it will be moving into the arcade tonight. Just need to make a back door for it :)

Repro Marquee, Bezel, Bud labels, t-molding, and CPO, but everything else is original (Minus the colorized side art and spray painted cup holders. Also need to put on the brass foot bar at the bottom :X).
