+pboland Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 You will notice that the image is of a common ColecoVision ad that was published in many magazines back in the day. I always liked this ad but hated the fact that it was split down the middle and never seemed to line up correctly. I scanned the ad in to my computer and spent some hours on it in Photoshop and now it looks like a one page ad. Since I scanned it in at a very high rez, I decided to have a large print made of the ad. The ad is 20 inches tall x 30 inches wide and it is on photo paper. It was printed by a professional photo prints shop (so, it is not the ink-jet stuff). I'm working on converting the smaller posters to this larger size. Unfortunately, that will require some major Photoshopping so they fill the entire 20 x 30 poster. I have one finished (it's Rocky) but, I haven't sent in out for printing yet. Notice I had to alter the Rocky poster but, I kept it in the style of the original. Let me know what you guys think. Pictured in font of a few of my arcades. Notice the yard stick for a size reference.

+save2600 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 (edited) Great work! I'm surprised nobody's asked you for one of those ads or a picture file so they can make their own yet. Edited May 5, 2010 by save2600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purenergy Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I remember that old 2-page ad. Your very large Colecovision poster looks clean and very professional. Keep up the great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
