[QUOTE="L33, post: 212311, member: 4681"] Just wanted to say thanks for all the support Ive had so far on here. Building one of these cabs is tricky, because theres really no set rules when it comes to building one of these, which makes the whole process tricky. When I look back at some of the responses on here to some of my questions, I didn't always understand them at the time, but now its all starting to make sense, and hopefully I'll be able to offer someone advice in the future who may be as clueless as I was. :) Gotta design the artwork for the cabinet now. This has got to be done right, cause this will be what makes or breaks the cab. Unfortunately, Im having to put the artwork together myself but fortunately I have been given some artwork to work with. I was hoping to use both TPA and Zen artwork as these will be the main software I'll be using. Im not sure Farsight wanted me to use the graphics as they kind of told me the artwork didn't exist (in slightly different words than that) which is a shame, but at the end of the day, it's their artwork and I hold no grudge. Zen were a little more helpful and provided me with some graphics from my favourite Zen game, so hopefully i can work with some of those graphics, although the files are that big my computer crashes when dragging them into photoshop! Im hoping for a 'wild west' theme but it may be a combination of themes. The wild west theme gives me the opportunity to use a few of my own designs and creations, but we'll see if that works. In theory my idea is good, but in reality...Im not great at art and don't want to make the cab look pants. :) [/QUOTE]
