Q*bert playfield done 🟠

This one was a challenge. Large playfield, a lot of black, and then the colours that need to pop against it.

Really happy with how the colour stands out on the finished result.

Free Fall playfield done and this one pushed me. Large playfield, lots of holes and inserts, and the wood was crumbling.

Had to give the bare wood 4 coats of two pack clear, twice, just to soak in and seal it. Then a second print was needed after adjusting the artwork to make sure everything lined up.

To say this one tested me is an understatement, but happy with how it turned out. Photos and video show the completed look.

Something I don't usually take on, cabinets, but since I'd already done the playfield for this Re-Themed Night of the Living Dead build, I was asked to do the cabinet as well 🧟

Artwork again by Holly. On my end, did some minor repair work on the cabinet, then sanded and prepped it myself with a two pack primer filler, sanded down in 3 stages.

That process actually highlighted some waviness in a few of the sides, so it was back in with another 4 coats of primer filler, sanded down in 3 stages again to get it right.

Painted black, sanded down in two more stages, then the artwork was applied and trimmed a few mill from the edges. Finished off with a buff to remove some minor marks in the artwork/decal.

End result is what you see here, along with a few progress photos showing how it came together 🔧

Ok I'll own this one 😅 Haunted House playfield, attempt number three on these insert numbers.

Attempt 1: forgot the numbers on two inserts.
Attempt 2: added them back in, but backwards.
Attempt 3: finally nailed it, and they look better than the originals now.

Three goes, one very persistent restorer. New video and photos up

Something different this time, a full custom theme playfield based on Night of the Living Dead 🧟 Done in black and white to match the film.

Worked with Holly, an artist in the UK, who was commissioned to create the playfield and cabinet artwork. I supplied the outlines, dimensions and specs for her to work from, then handled the cutlines and bleeds to get it print ready.

Full strip job on this Indiana Jones playfield, owner originally asked about a touch-up, but once I looked over the photos it was clear the wear was too spread out and heavily planked to spot-fix. Back to bare wood it went.
Full artwork restoration, reassembly, clear coat, and the mini playfield got the same treatment to match. See less

This Creature From the Black Lagoon playfield actually came back to me. I'd restored it for a previous owner a while back, and it's since changed hands.

The new owner spotted that the artwork wasn't quite right - turned out it was a repro, and the brown layer had been missed in a few spots (including the girl's hair), the barcode was left blank, and the "FILM" wording had some small errors too.

Went through and corrected all of it. New video and photos up showing the fixes 🔧 as well as the photos!

Edit: The topless girl was a custom request from a previous owner, not part of the repro issue. The repro fault was a missing brown layer (hair, other areas) and a missing barcode.
