Ok, I am only around 1/2 way done, I still have the sides, a lot of the back and some of the front to go, plus I know the grills are black, so I will be fixing that, but here is a before and after picture. I am pretty pleased with the results, however there were some deep scratches in the plastic that I couldn't sand out, oh well.

Great Job, I also would like to see how the side art turned out. Weren't you planning on reproducing them from the pics SamuraiShodownSensei provided?

Nice! What an improvement!

It went from something you would keep in the garage to a the living room!

Yes, I color balanced and vectorized the art and have made it freely available for all here (special thanks to SamuraiShodownSensei and Fox1):

If anyone needs it printed I recommend the services of maxchainsplendid. I usually supply him with the lossless PSD/EPS of everything so he can make the best quality reproduction (as well as anyone else on special request).

That's excellent! Great job with the vector.

If anyone is in need I have access to the side art vector for the Super Neo 29. Neo Geo MVS host the overlays I have done, but it would nice to add things such as these.

The paint job on the cab looks great, what kind of paint did you use and what process?

I am using Krylon Gloss white plastic spray paint. I try to sand it down as much as I can, chuck some windex on it, paint it and wait 7 days or so, sand it down again then more windex and then paint it again..not a tricky process and it works heh.
