I saw that GameOnGrafix sells "Mortal Kombat II Fantasy Sideart" which looks "ok" on the website, but the colors look wrong. Does anyone do an actual repro of the sideart, or have plans to? I picked up a cab a couple weeks back and the price was great... but the art has definitely seen better days and is really faded [no color left in the MK logo] and scraped all to hell from banging it against doorjams [or at least I assume that's how it got large horizontal scrape wounds]. I know that MK art has been done and that it's possible to get art for the control panel [my panel is already drilled for run buttons, so I will likely use the custom CPO art that is being worked on for MK]... but I'd really love to put some decent side-art on this thing and plastering over the original with something that isn't "right" bothers me.
 
I think Rich just snuck this one under the radar on us.

Does anyone have this art from Rich? Id like to see how awesome a completely refurbed MK II looks so I can be more motivated to work on mine.

It's been talked about in a non specific thread briefly
 
I looked on the site for it when I first got the cabinet and didn't find it... but now that I know it's there I'll be ordering once I get back from my honeymoon.
 
Awesome! It's just crazy how much love there has been for the MK series. Lots of props to Zenomorph and Rich to get this stuff done.
 
Hi all,

just to inform you guys, I received my mk2 art yesterday and put it on this afternoon.

The dimensions do not fit the (my) dedicated machine. The art is about half an inch to short and the width is wrong too.

I informed Rich about this, hope he can sort this out...

My advise would be waiting to order this one till the size has been fixed...


here are some pics:

measurements were taken/matched from original MK are you sure its not different in the UK?

Double checking file and measurements now.
PM sent shoot me your width and height so I can confirm.

I bought your mk1 sides some months ago, no problems there with lots of extra material, this cab is just 1cm wider...

yeah if anyone else can check those dimensions that would be great
Im checking these to what I have so far this shouldve still fit even with the extra bleed I gave it. No problem reprinting that for you XaryC once Ive confirmed all the dimensions
 
Here are measurements on my mk2 machine. I know the 1 pic looks like my ruler is crooked, but in the close up it is straight as an arrow :) The exact width is 35 9/16 inches, and the height is 73 inches. I know the pic shows 72 7/8" but that doesn't count for the 1/8" slack in the tip of the tape measure. Hope these help guys.

Thanks! These dimensions match mine... So the is no difference between usa and european models.

I think the art should be scaled so there is 1 inch extra over the actual dimensions. If i measure raidens hat from left to right, the original is also bigger...

Wierd thing is that the mkII logo and dragon matches the original in size... Or is the logo in a different layer then the art?
 
yeah strange the logo is on the same layer.
though Ill proably be changing that.
adding an extra 1" of bleed on this is no problem
But since I dont know how this was scanned (meaning full sized photo or scanned and stitched.) its hard to say why Raiden is a little off and the logo isnt.
But for point of reference what is that width measurement of his hat?


thanks kidivers for those measurements
 
Raidens hat is 38,5 cm on the original and 38 on your print...
Actally all dimensions are 0,5 cm smaller on the repro print.

Also the midway box decals should be looked at.
The midway word on the original measures 20,5 x 4 cm and the "r" mark is at the bottom of the Y instead of at the top.
