Show us your SF4 stick's custom art!

[Chunstoppable]

Since there's a lot of people that want to change the art on their TE and Standard SF4 sticks, we can use this thread to show off what we're planning to use.

This is NOT a request thread.

Here's mine:

[Chaghatai]

Here's my first attempt

http://home.comcast.net/~damonhr/web_images/stickart4b.jpg

Accel Core - Very nice stick art! Can you point me in the right direction to learn how to do that "starburst" effect seen in the background?

[Chunstoppable]

Chaghatai, thanks! :D

The "starburst effect" as you call it is really easy to create by doing the following...

a.) Make a new layer and fill it with clouds (Filter -> Render -> Clouds).
b.) On the same layer, add a lens flare (Filter -> Render -> Lens Flare). Use a 105mm flare and adjust the brightness to your liking.
c.) Finally, add a radial blur (Filter -> Blur -> Radial Blur). Set it to 'Zoom' and 'Best' and for the zoom amount, 60-75 should suffice.
:wgrin:

[myketuna]

Unlike you kings, I ordered an SE stick. Also, I'm a man of simple tastes, thus my simple design. The buttons, ball top, and shaft cover are all gonna be black and I'm thinking of painting the outside white border black also to finish that monochromatic feel. Anyway, here it is, love it or hate it.

Guys, is there a simple way to take an image, and put it on the TE Stick .psd template? Ive JUST got Photoshop, and I have never used it before - completely baffled!

If anyone has a link to a step-by-step guide to do this, Id be most chuffed. Have loads of images that I would like to have a play around with :)


Excellent work so far - the Vewlix one is brilliant :)

You can use layers - open up a new layer, put it over the template's layer(s, if there's more than one layer putit above all of them), and it will be over the template. If you want to see the template, set the layer to around 75% opacity (just remember to set it back when you're done, otherwise when you print it'll look a bit clear, and the template layer will show through)

This way, you can see where the art meets the buttons, etc.

Like I said I would a couple weeks ago, I created my own mockup today. Also created an action. Basically, with a couple clicks you can put your artwork into this psd file. Will release later today.

Yes, I know someone else created a template - but IMO it's very messy, so I made one as planned anyways.

How exactly did you add those outlines? I am having the hardest time with it.

[zero2000]

How exactly did you add those outlines? I am having the hardest time with it.

Take just the rounded rectangular art, not the white edges on the side. Duplicate the layer, scale it down a little bit smaller than the original. Put a stroke on it with whatever color, then lower the opacity of the image itself so then the outline is the only thing showing. Then just align it so it is equal on all sides.

[Canto]

How about this?

From top going counter clockwise- Bosses, new characters, shotos, weirdos, americans, sexy ones
Sorry, no console characters or new bosses.

Heres the PSD file, use it as you please :lovin:

http://www.mediafire.com/?omynj0q1mmn EDIT: LINK SHOULD WORK NOW

I'll make some new ones in time, and maybe do some requests if you want!

[kurdt_the_goat]

Rather than scaling the layer (which results in the curve looking wrong on the inside), a more accurate way is to use 3 same-sized rounded rectangle layers, ie:

Top layer - double click and give it a stroke of 3 pixels set to the inside, coloured black
Middle layer - double click and give it a stroke of 5 pixels set to the inside, coloured the same as the background
Bottom layer - double click and give it a stroke of 6 pixels set to the inside, coloured black

Then, set all 3 layers to have 0% 'fill' (top of the layers palette) to show only the stroke... you can then adjust the stroke widths to achieve the right thickness.

[Toshin]

likk you need to fix that link man. still no workie

[horsedick]

any one have the splash designs on buttons in psd?

this is nearly my done artwork mod, also i was thinking why try take off the artwork when you can laminate the new artwork and simply place it over the original and have the buttons and screws to hold it in place?

Does anyone have any tips/tutorials/links for how to make the ink clouds a la SFIV? I'm trying to make a SFIV marquee/cpo/stick template, and want some massively high res/huge ones, but all the illustrator/ps stuff I can find is either completely flat black splodges or way too low res. Seems hard to make stuff as nice as Capcom have (big surprise there).

Example: http://forums.shoryuken.com/showpost.php?p=6093237&postcount=7989 - the left hand side of the stick art.

The ink blobs on the SFIV Vewlix panel look pretty crappy in comparison, imo...

Fluxcore: You need watercolor stock photography. Most likely you'll have to pay for it. www.dreamstime.com is a good site - but it's pricey. www.gomedia.us has some watercolor packs which are more affordable - but they're probably larger in scale than what you're looking for.

limitedE: Np! :) Thanks for the kind words.

Does anyone have any tips/tutorials/links for how to make the ink clouds a la SFIV? I'm trying to make a SFIV marquee/cpo/stick template, and want some massively high res/huge ones, but all the illustrator/ps stuff I can find is either completely flat black splodges or way too low res. Seems hard to make stuff as nice as Capcom have (big surprise there).

Example: http://forums.shoryuken.com/showpost.php?p=6093237&postcount=7989 - the left hand side of the stick art.

The ink blobs on the SFIV Vewlix panel look pretty crappy in comparison, imo...

Cheers.

[kurdt_the_goat]

Draw a path in Illustrator, then brushes palette, click the arrow on the top right, then "open brush library" then "artistic" then "ink". It's hard to tell if these are the exact same brushes they used for SF4 official stuff, but they're pretty close. Could probably google search for illustrator ink brushes to find more variants.

[limitedE]

Send me a PM with what you want, and I could make it for you.

Pm'd, Thanks in advance! :wgrin:

Alright still new with cs3....how do I skew a image so I can get it looking right on the psd with the full TE stick? Can somebody help me out

[shidoshi]

Hey everybody, this is shidoshi, aka Eric from Play (the guy who did the "review of the SE FightStick for Joe Average" review). I thought I'd post my custom SE FightStick art, and early experience with trying to get it to come together, in case it'll help any other SE owners out. Hope you guys don't mind me posting this.

My Adventures in Modding the SE FightStick: Attempt #2

First attempt isn't even worth talking about, so we'll pass on that.

So the solution I ended up going with was a product called "lamilabel" from Kinko's. My initial idea was this: print the image on a full-sheet label, run in through the laminater (ending up with basically a laminated sticker), and go with that. Today, the person who helped me suggested these lamilabels, which are more of a pocket lamination-type product, but one that is made one side that peels off to be sticky. The reason I'm not so hot on pocket lamination is that typically it doesn't adhear as well to a sheet of paper, which is a shame because it is usually a heavier and more durable type of lamination.

However, this lamilabel stuff came out way better than I imaged, and doing the print as a standard color print versus printing in color to a full-sheet label, where the overall quality level drops a bit.

You can see the results below.

If you want to take this route, here is what I've learned below. I don't know the longevity of this lamilabel stuff, but it seems like it might be a decent solution. I put it straight onto the main stick artwork without taking it off, which I think will be a better idea then trying to take off the stock art. The stock art allows for peeling over the lamilabel if you want to, so that way you could easily swap out to a different image at a later date.

* Don't use the template as it current stands in regards to edges. Cutting to the set edges and then trying to get it to perfectly line up on the face is a real bitch. (As you can see in my photos below.) What I'm going to do is extend the edges a bit, cut to that size, stick the sticker on, and then do trimming there. Since the joystick's body by nature has a bit of a groove / edge around the face artwork, this worked well for the bit of trimming that I did do. So I think that for both the outer edge and around the controls, I'm going to try again, have it be a bit bigger than it should be, then trim afterwards for better results.

* Take off the white circles for where the buttons go. Keep the artwork full there, stick this on to the case, and then trim the button holes from the inside out. That way, your cuts will be perfect, it'll be far easier to cut out, and you know for certain that you'll have no white area on the artwork under your buttons.

Anyhow, as I said, I'm going to try another attempt at printing and putting on the artwork. Then I'll just need to order new buttons and a stick.

Not counting the first two mistakes in printing, $3. ($0.50 for the color print, $2.39 for the lamilabel job, and then tax.)

Time to whip up some other potential TE stick arts.

[PlayingKarrde]

Where the heck did you get it done for so cheap?!

Kinko's. It's very cheap and their printing isn't so bad either. Limited in the types of stock they have but for something like this you'll be fine since it's going to be laminated anyway.

[Chunstoppable]

Oh, I always thought Kinko's would charge around $20. Show's how much I know.

Thanks. :D

Thanks for that post, shidoshi! That lamilabel stuff looks like a very viable option! I wonder how long it'll last though, especially with my left hand resting on it and moving furiously.

Would I be a total jerk if I pointed out a typo on your artwork? Yeah I would. But you said you were going to try printing it one more time, so... the last line of the text reads: In the end, the winner can look forward to being crowed the "King of Fighters."

[shidoshi]

Thanks for that post, shidoshi! That lamilabel stuff looks like a very viable option! I wonder how long it'll last though, especially with my left hand resting on it and moving furiously.

Yeah, that's what remains to be seen. The lady at Kinko's who suggested the stuff to me said they use it for signs that are put on counters, and it holds up well, but we'll see. I used to work for Kinko's, but we didn't have this stuff back then, so I'm not really familiar with it.

Well, that text is supposed to be sort of "Engrish", so that spelling error is part of the whole thing.

The fact that I put "64-bit" instead of "24-bit", however, is not. *shakes head*

I might fix it some day, but for now, I just don't have the energy after it taking three attempts to get something I was happy with. *heh*

300dpi CMYK TIFF file.

[keroro]

Does anyone know anywhere in the Uk that does these lami-labels? Ive asked a couple of local printers and no one has heard of them. Is that a brand name, or.....?

Some awesome looking art there guys.

[Omega Viscant]

Lol TIFF files. Apple still trying to force those onto people?

And yeah, I'm pretty sure lami-label is a brand-name dealy from Kinkos. Apparently it's pretty new, but given how competitive things get, it might be worth checking if there's a competitor that offers the same service. You might not have Fedex-Kinkos in England, but you must have some kind of print shop there like an alphagraphics or the limey equivalent.

You mean Adobe.. right? Camera companies forced JPEG onto us, its no different really.

Only .TIFF I've noticed on my mac is when you take a screen shot using the default print screen. I use a different program to take screen shots though.

Yeah def. PNG.. smaller, easier, transparent backgrounds, better quality. But they'll always be obsolete because within every 2 years a new format comes out lol.

[shidoshi]

Yeah Adobe, but apple forces that format too (default mac picture format is TIFF. ugh.)

PNG ftw.

...seriously.

Well, uhm, sorry that you don't approve of the file format I used. Being that I do a lot of stuff for print, and the steps in that process prefer stuff in TIFF format, that's just what I default to a lot of the time. PNGs probably win on size (for my test, it was like 2.5MB versus 3.2MB), but TIFFs can certainly do transparency, and I'm not sure what exactly "easier and better quality" mean in such broad terms.

And the default image format for Mac OS X is PNG. Used to be TIFF, yes, but not any longer.

[VPT]

shidoshi: Amazing work! You have helped me get a great head-start on doing the same mod! However, before I start I still have a few concerns. Would you mind answering a few questions for me?

1.) Which template did you end up using? How does the angle of the panel affect the size of the art that you print? In other words, since it isn't completely flat do you have to make your design slightly larger?

2.) From what I can gather, basically you printed it at the right size, but had problems trimming it around the edges. Do you think this is related to your cutting tool, printing material, or some aspects of the stick itself?

3.) Can you expand more on why you decided not to remove the stock artwork?

That's all I can think of right now. I'll be checking back frequently for any updates. Thanks!

EDIT: For those of you who are doing the seven button ones, aren't you going to have problems with laying the art down? Since you won't be using a hole plug the art will just be laying on top of the exposed hole.

I really want to use a seven button one but I can't figure out how make it practical. What am I missing?

heres an idea, plug one hole with a button plug, then place the art on top of it. that way there is support for the art. The button plugs dont really have any height to them but you might have to sand it down just a bit. Just an idea ;)

This is my first attempt at anything of this kinda sort, y'know... with the whole "do stuff to joysticks" and such. That said, it took me forever to find high enough res logos of MB, and even longer to cut them out letter by letter. That said, I'm a little unhappy with how the dust cover seems to interfere a bit. I was thinking if there was such thing as a clear dust cover....

Any suggustions people? I'm thinking of adorning it with a blue bubble ball top and light blue and white sanwa buttons. I'd do clear seimetsus, but I'm not really confident with my craftsmanship skills and ability to get art inside those buttons~

I'm in love with the SFIV artwork. Here's a quick Balrog mockup that I threw together.

Here's my latest revision

I plan on experimenting some more with a few things, this is pretty fun actually...

As always, I am open to critique and suggestions.

*edit* looks like I need to correct the spelling on Honda's name as I left out the 'n' in "Edomondo".

[SuicidalGrandpa]

Chag, I like it as it is. Looks pretty damn fresh. The characters on the left are a bit cliche, but then again, I'm usually into simple, minimal designs. Lookin good :tup:

Made this for fun, for Shinto:

Chag: not to nitpick, but i see a lot of aliasing around the bamboo.

...seriously.

[Chaghatai]

That one was thrown together without even using my high-res assets - I'll be cleaning up the edges more in the final version - it's not so much that the lines are aliased, it's been blurred several timed - I simply left some of the sky in there when I clipped it out. That and the leaves get lighter green towards the edges, so it does look kinda strange against a darker background - it's why I put it behind one of the blue-wash layers.

And I know it sounds weird, but I kinda like the light spot near the very bottom - it's looks almost like a specular highlight to me so I left that one on purpose.

Anyway, this is more of a "proof of concept" before I make the final one. Most of the layers will be re-assembled from the full-resolution versions from scratch when I make the print version. Even in this version though, I didn't think the bamboo was as bad as you seem to be saying that it is. Thanks for that - I'll make sure to pay a close attention to that detail in the final version.

[Omega Viscant]

As bad as I was saying that it is? I did say it was nitpicky.

...seriously.

[shidoshi]

1.) Which template did you end up using? How does the angle of the panel affect the size of the art that you print? In other words, since it isn't completely flat do you have to make your design slightly larger?

Boy... I used whatever the basic template that was floating around was. I think the one linked in the official thread about the MadCatz stuff over in the Tech Talk forum.



2.) From what I can gather, basically you printed it at the right size, but had problems trimming it around the edges. Do you think this is related to your cutting tool, printing material, or some aspects of the stick itself?

I think the problem is, unless you're somebody who can hand-cut exactly along the edge, you're going to have the chance of the artwork not looking good in the end. One little mistake in a cut, and your art won't look like it's stock atwork (which is what I'd think the goal should be).

Plus, you know, any little thing about the printing process could get the sizing off just slightly as well. So, for many reasons, I think it just makes more sense to mod the template file to give you more art around the edges, and then trim it off afterward.


3.) Can you expand more on why you decided not to remove the stock artwork?

Well, two reasons. One, I thought it might be a real mess to get it off, and two, I'm the type of person who would rather keep the art on there should I ever one day decide I want to use it again. I also think keeping the stock art on will make it a bit easier to take my custom art off should I ever want to, which is another plus.


Somebody asked me in PM about getting the artwork positioned properly on the stick if you indeed make the borders a bit bigger, and since I can't send PMs yet, here's me reply:

Yeah, I kind of realized afterward that lining everything up might be a bit tricky. So, what I did was, trim to the very edge of the outer edge of the artwork except for the curves: this was okay, because since I had edited the template to give myself extra on all edges, then cutting to those edges wouldn't screw up the final trim.

Then, I cut the hole for the joystick to size (since that hole would be covered up), and used that hole as my first basis for positioning. I then tried to line it up so that, as much as possible, I had an equal amount of excess art on all four of the main sides. I peeled about an inch of the backing off of the upper-right corner, used scissors to cut the backing, and then stuck that corner on while being sure to hold the artwork firm into place. Then, since that corner was stuck, I could lift the art from the opposite edge and peel off the rest of the backing without losing my positioning.

My art is just slightly too far to the left, but in the end it isn't going to make much of a different I don't think. How exact you really have to be with positioning all depends on what you do with your art. For me, I had art around the buttons that really called for being centered. If you don't, then getting it exact won't be as big of a deal.

[Big3D]

ok i wanted to show off this art for a while now

Yeah i know i have to rearrange the characters to better fit the stick but this was a quick stick mock up
give me about a day and ill see what i come up with

[viper28087]

if you plan on using clear buttons that mock up will work out just fine. I'm doing a similar thing to my stick art, just using non SFIV art style things. It ends up looking a little strange with all the different art styles being meshed together but I like it.

Thanks for your response! I was actually thinking about a similar method with using one of the button holes, but your method is much better since the dust cover would be placed there. Good point. Keep up the good work, and keep us posted on how the rest of the mods go.

What do you mean by this?

Yes, I did make heavy use of the liquefy tool. That was the only way I knew of to get the design I had in my head into photoshop. I actually created the Akuma piece first some months back. I decided to make a wispy cloud effect for the night scene, but as I was making it the vortex like piece you see there popped into my head, and I spent time shifting the blackness and greys about to get to it. When I saw this thread, I decided to play with that background some more, and found that playing with colors and simple images that I could get decent stick art. Simple, yet effective. I'm just immensely pleased that I received compliments for some of them, considering that I have never received a complement for my visual creative endeavors. Thanks guys :)

Those designs you put up were cool, by the way. I love the four Kings one.


I really like that Akuma one, would it be possible to get that on an SE template?

For your own use? Yeah, sure man. The original image would actually be more suited to the SE I think. I'll assemble it and PM it to you.

[Furinkazan]

Sorry if this has been asked elsewhere, but why are people using the x-y-rb-lb/a-b-rt-rb layout? Wouldn't make more sense to go x-y-lb-rb/a-b-lt-rt and assign the buttons in SFIV's menu? I know its extra work but won't it pay off if you plan to use your stick intuitively w/ other games?

[Bomberman]

Furinkazan I think this layout makes the most sense:
X-Y-LB-LT
A-B-RB-RT
But that one is good too. And yes, the default SF4 button layout sucks. It's designed for people using standard Xbox 360 and PS3 pads, which none of us are...

Ok, question, I apologize if it's really ignorant. Is there any reason none of you are swapping out the buttons for transparent ones with the art in the them?

I think it's just dependent on the art. I'm still deciding on the buttons to use for my own TE but I won't be using clear buttons because the buttons are just covering some paint splatters.

Accel Core that design doesn't exactly beg for clear buttons. But drawings that take up the whole template - those definitely benefit from them.

Toreus: Like Accel Core said, it depends on the art. I used to be a huge fan of clear buttons too, but now I am going more towards functionality and professionalism rather than design. Plus, not all designs look better with it.

Based on Accel's reply, I think I have a better idea. That pic he posted is a good example of one that really wouldn't need the clear buttons.

I got to say, the artwork here is top notch, bar none. Each one I see is really making me want to pull the trigger and get a custom one.

Depends on art like others said but I like Sanwa buttons (which don't currently offer clear buttons) over Semitsu.

Right o, here are my efforts, don't know if I'll go ahead with it, TE stick comes in April but would have replaced all the parts with Sanwa buttons by then anyways. And if I replace the art stick and buttons I can't resell the SE stick. Worried I'll screw up the art mod:

I thought quiche's red, white, and blue background with Dan would go good with a Balrog, so this is kind of a mix between quiche's idea and Satsui Ryu's Balrog.

I really like this one i love to have this for my fight stick . Have you made any more ?

[BustaBust]

yo guys, i got a SE stick and i was hoping to change the art. first time messin with this stuff and i just made this in like 5 mins so excuse the sloppiness of the edges lol. what do you guys think of it? its very basic. im going to leave the last 2 buttons black and have the other buttons blue/purple once i fully mod my stick to how i want it to be.

i got it from http://la.gg/us/5714 and used the ink.png

The colors are pleasing but it's a bit too plain for my tastes. Might still turn out well though.

too much of the ink spashing, maybe a few bigger ones would have done better
besides that looks pretty good

ya but i kinda like it how it is and im not sure what else i can put in there that will go well with the blue/purple. also i think that was based on a TE template. is there anyway i can get an SE version of that layout? or does it matter? sorry for the noobish questions hah.

also to big3d. right now i dont have a console but if i do it will be 360 and ill let you know.

[Gregonater]

Can someone send me that balrog one up the page plz? Or possibly make it. I don't want the holes on it though because i'm putting it on a different type of stick.

It's a MadCatz StreetFighter IV SE stick with Seimitsu parts, custom shaft and dust cover, and art printed on adhesive Vinyl by MAME Marquees (http://mamemarquees.com/).
I also installed an MC Cthulhu and Imp board with a Neutrik RJ-45 jack.

...nah.



Why? This is my favorite one of the ones shown. I have a couple ones I want to use from some manga I have but don't have a scanner...yet, that would go great for the TE.

Crying Freman is too beast, as is the rest of Ryuichi Ikegami's art.

Here's my pic of my stick art thanks to bigworm! 49199

[shinblanka]

49201 Here's another view!:rock: I have big hands and that's why I switched the button layout and put the black buttons on the inside and play with the white buttons. It also puts the left shoulder buttons on the left hand side of your button layout just like it is on the Mas sticks!

Wow, I didn't know my thread was resurrected! In case anyone hasn't seen them yet, here are my templates and the only one that I got printed so far. :lol:

Not a Madcatz stick, but I want to post it because I'm so proud of how it turned out, and it's probablly one of the very few Fuerte sticks out there.

RAWRGH!!! Don't you guys have the "I love my custom stick thread"?! Nice art, looks very...different.

[Frank Ae]

Hey Accel Core, I love your last two designs. Great work.

[Chunstoppable]

Thanks Frank! I think the one I made with Lightning is my favorite one at the moment.
