As most of you know, I picked up a free dead Jr. Pac a couple of weeks ago and have been working on it ever since. It used to be a Galaxian, then converted to a Jr. Pac-Man and I can see why for the coin meter only has 20k plays.
The whole cabinet has been painted black with the exception of beat up kickpanel Jr. Pac-Man art. There is no Jr. Pac-Man full side-art for conversions, so I decided to design my own. This is the concept design for the left side, any feedback?
I'm giving the cabinet a blue-on-black scheme.
So far I've:
•Cleaned the heck out of the paint
•Repair it... sorta
•Applied temporary artwork
•Painted top of the kickpanel blue (to match the blue design)
•Painted the interior of the cabinet blue
•Install new buttons (leaves) & joystick (Sanwa brand micros). They came in handy!!!
•Replaced the 25c inserts with repros from TOG
•Installed new lock
Need to do:
•Install new CPO, marquee and bezel (ordered but not arrived)
•Rebuild the monitor (unsure... it's a rare Zenith monitor with little info. available)
•Touch up the existing black
•Order new sideart
•Vinyl CP
•Restore coin door
I'm sure there's more... will update.
Pix tomorrow morning (uploading).
Concept sideart for left side (trims to contour of the cabinet). It's quick and dirty, made it in a couple of hours.
