FS: Tempest CPO - VL Special!

Hi All,

This email is to let you know that, finally, my Tempest CPOs are finished!

This CPO came out *perfect* !!! The art, which took me over 125 hours to
draw, is based on the best aspects of several the original revisions. As you
all know, the original version had muddy looking overlayed colors. Atari
fixed this starting in version B. The line thickness of the Enemies is from
version D (too thin on version B, too thick on version C). Also, the rays
from the center extend all the way to the outer borders (no black line
separating them).

But most importantly, the font is an exact match. I actually ended up
creating a true-type font, drawing each letter to match the original. Then,
after typing all the test, each character was moved over the original,
making the inter-character and inter-word spacing exact.

The art was then silk-screened and die cut by the printers from Arcade
Renovations. The end result is amazing. By special arrangement with Philippe
of AR, I can offer you a Vector List special price. Normally, the CPOs will
sell for $55. Email Phillipe directly (pbourdon@portone.com) and mention the
Vector List and you will get a $10 discount on your order!

I hope you all enjoy this CPO. This was the most difficult piece of art I've
produced and I'm really proud of it.
