This is more 'officially' beginning my conversions of old papercraft sets to RPG use. This set will be a few pages of 'arcade machine' props, such as video games, skee-ball, and what have you. I'll be shooting for four pages of these machines at 300dpi, so they fit well with the Armory material.

The first machine design is finished, the EM Gun machine from the early 1970s.

To Do
* Skee-Ball
* Pinball machines
* DDR-style machine

Progress
* EM Gun Machine
* EM Pitch and Bat Machines
* EM Submarine Machine
* EM Driving Machine
* Table 'sports' arcade machines
* Air Hockey Machine
* "Cropped arcade machine (Pong Type)
* Change Machine
* Tall arcade machine (Old Taito Type)
* Tall arcade machine (Old Midway Type)

fun

Are these actually "bashed" from some WWG set? I've seen you posting lots of neat stuff, but I wasn't sure if they're derivative works or all new stuff you've been putting together. I came to WWG and started with the TLX format, so I'm not familiar with the stuff (a) outside of the fantasy lines, and (b) earlier than the TLX releases.

This update was meant for yesterday, but I let myself get a bit too distracted by Skyrim. These are two reskins of the EM Gun machine, based on other classic gun games. They're built identically to the "Haunted House" machine above.

Real life... interfering... with stuff...

Today's update is a bit of a 'test run' for pinball machines. These are EM Pitch and Bat machines (two buttons, one launches the ball, the other aims a 'bat' to smack the ball into a target). Again, very 1970s, though these are based on earlier machines. "Mystery Score", "Winner", and "Line Drive", all bearing the "Mayhem Arcade" label.

Hey, now I'm on page two!

Today's update (and yesterday's, to catch up) consists of a couple of quick conversions of the Air Hockey table into a foos ball set. I'm not entirely happy with the rod hockey variant, and might wind up redrawing that one eventually.

I also managed to get the EM Submarine game right on the first try for once. This is a slightly tricky build, but not too hard. The periscope came out a lot nicer than I originally hoped. It's based on many, many near-identical games, so it's more of an amalgam of a number of them than based on any one machine. I didn't feel the need to redeco it, since.. well, all the ones in the real world were so alike.

Today, a little late, finishes up "Page Two" with the remaining EM machines (the pair of driving machines), the ubiquitous change machine, and a trio of early "Pong" cabinet machines. Dang, those early Pong units were tiny little things.

This is today's test... based on the "Space Invaders" cabinet. Not entirely happy with this one.. needs more contrasting art on the front, and I screwed up the flap measurements a little. A revised version will be up tommorow, only with a few redecos, more than likely.

At first, I was like "ok - that's cute". Then I was like "oh hey - that's pretty cool". Now I'm itching to see this all put together!

More video games. "Pac Em" (with Ms. and Plus variants) and "Defensor".

the arcade I spent my childhood in had Skee-Ball. How about that?

+1 scene. My ex-wife worked at an Aladdin's Castle.

I especially love the universality of the change machine - this just has to make it to market as ktibash somehow ***soon***.

Missing are a Basketball Throw, Claw Machine, Whack-the-Rodent, and Bowling (slide-the-puck style) [My local bar used to have the latter one, but the amusement vendor replaced it with something else. I miss it and have not seen another anywhere around town - leastways not in any of my usual watering holes.]

Where did you get your walls? I can imagine if the area were twice the size you could manage an upper runaround balcony, with a set of stairs for access, with more game machines.

(Just what you wanted - more work suggestions, eh?)

Merry Christmas!
