I recently acquired an Omega Race upright that is in fairly decent condition, but it is missing the big cardboard background neon art piece. I do have the side art pieces. I'm open to original or repro. I found this thread where @Paladin made a repro several years ago, and certainly @Outland81 has the awesome skills too (I love the Asteroids Deluxe background he made for me!). Hoping to get this cab back to its beautiful spacey glory!
 
@TastyBoogerz Very kind of you, thanks! I'd likely scan the original, print in b&w / grayscale, then add the neon with markers. That one is a beast, man. All those dots...
 
I'd be more than happy to commission you for the work, and pay appropriately for your time, skill, parts, and labor. Not sure if the artwork has been scanned anywhere?
 
I haven't seen it in the usual places. If there is one available somewhere, I'd be very interested in working on a reproduction. I really like what Paladin used - the neon powder paint. Looks like a great match for the original.

As I'm still attempting to source the remaining art pieces for my Omega Race restore. I just came across this post from @LyonsArcade and now I'm confused...

I have the left and right pieces, circled in green.

I thought all I needed was the backdrop, circled in red.

What the heck are all the pieces circled in yellow?

So I checked the manual, and it states there are 5 different scenery pieces. Hmm.

Maybe I should put this into the Restorations forum?
