Professor Pac-man
Professor Pac-man
I didn’t know too much about the game, other than it was trivia based game with questions and answers. Reading klov, it says that the game had over 500 unique answers, which really isn’t a ton. Midway thought this was going to be the next big type of game, but it flopped immediately, and only 400 were ever made.
Not a type of game that appealed to me, Pac-man based or not, I didn’t figure that I would be doing artwork for this game. But Richard Ford asked me if I could redo the control panel for him, I believe he has two of the few that still remain. The second one needs the parts, and hence the artwork.
Professor Pac-man Control Panel Reproductions Finished!
My first reproduction work that has physically been made! The Professor Pac-man control panel overlays came in, and Rick sent me some photos. They are at an extreme angle, but that is good for obvious reasons for the two of us and it shows anyway how cool they look. Check out one of them below.
Lower Professor Pac-man cpanel artwork
Tonight I was procrastinating on other things that I needed to do, so I decided I would just finished the piece of artwork for the Professor Pac-man. The Professor was all that was left with some miscellaneous pieces of the tables and chairs. You can see an image of it below.
I kind of like having whole collection of unattainable artwork, or rare at the very least. I would like to do the sideart next if Richard will continue to indulge me and take photos.
Professor Pac-man ghost finished
Finished up the orange ghost tonight. I have pieces of the Professor Pac-man on the overlay finished, but he is the last piece and I will be able to post an image of the finished piece here, maybe still sometime this weekend.
Progress Professor Pac-man cpanel artwork
Worked a little more on the bottom section of the Professor Pac-man control panel overlay. I did a good deal of work, got through the blue ghost and most of the orange ghost before I worked on other pressing things.
Professor Pac-man bottom control panel artwork
Still really interested in having some sort of artwork preservation project going, tonight I was looking through the hi-res photos I had and I decided to start on tracing the bottom portion of the Professor Pac-man artwork. I got through remaking Pac-man before the night was up.
Double checking Professor Pac-man measurements
Took the Professor Pac control panel artwork tonight and did the measured adjustments on it. Of course I had to do some adjustments, my artwork seemed to be a little more short than the measurements when I scaled it down proportionately. I am guessing that next it should be printed out to scale, and laid over a current machine to make sure that it is pretty close to correct.
Hopefully Richard is able to print that off ok, even with margins, maybe at a local printer or something.
