Sub-Zero Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 I'm building a 3D model of a 6-switcher, and I need a good image from the side of a 2600 with the original form-factor (not the Jr), if someone could take a picture of their 2600 and post it, I'd be very appreciative I need a photo (or even a diagram) of the unit from either the left or right side, but it needs to be perpendicular from the top of the unit, not at an angle that most pics are at. I need this to be able to make an accurate model. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 not sure if this is what you mean... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max-T Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 Dear Sub Zero, I recently acquired a Heavy Sixer in NM condition, and I own a 5-megapixel digital cam. The pic that "paul" posted was excellent. But if you need any further pictures, please let me know. I and my camera are at your service. And, BTW, I'd love to get a copy of the 3-D model once you're finished! Take care, and good luck with your project. Max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sub-Zero Posted March 1, 2004 Author Share Posted March 1, 2004 I still need to finish the back, but I thought I'd post some pics... And then just for fun... Thanks to Atari Troll and Paul for info/pics -- Max-T, I could an image of the back, as well as a upclose view of the switches/cart area.[/img] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARI TROLL Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Those look nice and your welcome! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max-T Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Sub Zero, looks excellent so far. I hope my package of Sixer pics has reched you without overloading your inbox. If it was too much at once, let me know, so I can send you the pics one at a time, But I think the model looks fantastic so far. You obviously have a good grasp of 3D rendering. I hope that my pics can be of help, and I am looking forward to seeing the end product! One pointer (and please forgive me if I am insulting your intelligence); 1977 Heavy Sixers had a yellow line painted around the front panel, and yellow switch labels (except for the power switch label). Later sixers and the four-switchers had an orangeish color instead. Sorry if I am stating the obvious, but I just wanted to make sure. Any other other pics or help that I can provide, just ask. Good luck with your model, and I'm anxious to see the final product. Take care, now. Max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sub-Zero Posted March 1, 2004 Author Share Posted March 1, 2004 I got the images, thanks a bunch! I didn't realize that it had the line, I didnt' see any other images with it. I'll be able to get into finer detail now So, I'm guessing that the heavy sixer is what most people are interested in seeing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vb_master Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 It would be interesting if you could make a 3d scanner (I saw instructions on the internet) and use some software to translate the pic taken with the laser (in a straight line. I've done it using plastic bottles and stuff.) That would be much easier then doing it that way ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARI TROLL Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 Mr Sub-zero: Could I use these in the future for backgrounds for webpages?? If not, that's cool. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sub-Zero Posted March 2, 2004 Author Share Posted March 2, 2004 Yes! I will be releasing this to the public domain -- use what you wish. It's not complete yet (need to add the yellow touch up around the panel and the joystick ports, etc.), but when it's done I'll put up a link for people to download the model and images. If you have any requests of a certain view or even color, let me know and I'll try to accomodate you as best I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARI TROLL Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 Cool. Look forward to the updates! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sub-Zero Posted March 4, 2004 Author Share Posted March 4, 2004 Here's what the model is looking like these days: Can anyone tell me what the image on the side of this real kiosk is and where I can get it? It looks like a catalog cover, but I couldn't find it: Thanks! [/img] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
