I'd say I'm a delicate brute... But that would just be a lie.


I'm handling it gently. It's in the shock until I have time to rotate the astro and get a few things done around the house.

It's gonna happen...that game goes from zero to hulk in under 30 seconds .

Changed a few buttons and sticks since then but thats pretty much the shroud painting part.
Also did a bit of minor fix up paints on top of the cab on some spots:

Make Mendel tell you straight up that he borrowed that idea from me. I painted the shroud black first, all me, it was my idea, no body else, best ever, the man, the myth, the arcade black label society.

Actually I think the idea was presented to me by Chempop on Arcadeotaku. He linked this picture to me:

Is that your cab? It might be cause Im pretty sure it isnt his :)

edit: ElectricGrave: I´ve been told the cab in that picture is yours and that you did that painting without any outside influence and now that I found that thread in arcadeotaku where I was asking for advice back in 2012, I can see chempop also actually credits your collection gallery for that pic so yes, it was your idea then! ;)

Ruffles! I was just kidding but yes that's my cab a few years ago. Well, that's just a thing I do, changes, I did it with the Goldie and a lot of folks followed suit as well. The Astro not so much, so far I know of 3 cabs with it. I did it 'cause it reminds me of the Astro City with the flat black shroud, I always thought that look was the best. Maybe we'll get more members of the Black Label speaker shroud society!

Custom Blast City MS side art? Looks amazeballs as always Señor Crank.

Still in love with your Smash TV set up though, still haven't recovered from that.
