After going through another thinking process, I have decided to do an abstraction of the jackpot machine instead.


So here it goes!



I used the picture above and did a traced version.




From there, I remove details after detail untill i came to the simple box version.




One thing that I noted about the jackpot machine is that the REELS are important.
It identifies the jackpot machine as... well, a jackpot machine.
Therefore I retained the reels for the final design.

I make it into a sign and place in casinos.

Jackpot sign in action in the casino!

The arcade machine below is my previous work, just leaving it here.





Attempted to do an abstraction for a VIDEO GAMES ARCADE sign.


What seems like an wonderful idea became my worst nightmare.


Next time I'll factor in Generation gap and gender ratio before picking something to draw/create. arrrghghg




Orignal Picture

























Traced followed by Some details removed







I changed the man into the usual toilet person.
Simplifed the arcade machine as well into a black box but left the arcade stick(rather small though)




I found out that it looks very much like an ATM machine.
Therfore I decided to zoom onto the arcade stick which is the main 'identity' of the arcade machine.sigh......


























































































































Does this look like an arcade stick?
I think it does. Maybe it has more buttons then the usual one but still....
This is the home console version.

Only Kohji understands my pain lol
