  • Product Description

    Please Read Before You Order

    Below is important information to know before placing a custom order with us:

    • Project L Official Artwork: Do not submit the PNG samples. Instead, please download the zipped Photoshop PSD version, unzip the file and integrate them into our artwork templates new-window-icon.png for your desired fightstick model
    • Hori Official Street Fighter 6 Artwork:  Please do not submit this artwork for the Fightstick Alpha. It is not compatible with our print and cut, as it contains registration marks that cannot be removed. If you wish to have the artwork printed only, you can use our Non-Commercial Fightstick Panel Artwork Print service. 
    • Hori Official Tekken 8 Artwork. We can print and cut most of Hori's official Tekken 8 artwork, as they revised the artwork files to allow removing the registration marks. Exception is artwork for Jun Kazama which has registration marks that cannot be removed.
    • Custom Orders do Not Ship Separately: If you place an order for a personalized product along with non-custom products, such as arcade part or merchandise, please note that all items will ship together.

    Control panel artwork represents one of the most convenient means to personalize your fightstick, giving it a new look almost immediately. 

    High Resolution, Color Fidelity

    Artwork prints are developed using a top-of-the-line commercial printer, offering vivid, professional-quality artwork replication. The printer is capable of resolution of 1200dpi (dots per inch), and 8 color ink system (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, K(Black) + Light Cyan, Light Magenta and White) reproduces artwork over a wide color range.

    Artwork is printed on 10 mil cardstock sheet.  It carries 95% brightness and tensile strength of 100 pounds per inch.

    Each print is laser cut to your specifications, as presented by available options.  You will receive the print with insert cutouts designed to fit your chosen brand. Gently press downward to remove the cutouts.

    Important Notes about Color Fidelity, Brightness

    • Please do not change the RGB color space of our templates to CYMK when submitting your artwork. Our templates are intentionally designed in the RGB color space to best match most customer's screen expectations. We will not reprint artwork whose template is changed to CYMK color space.
    • Unless properly calibrated to your printer and viewing environment, your monitor does not accurately represent the brightness of paper. Artwork submissions may need adjustment to ensure prints are not too dark. Please read this helpful support article for more information

    Designed for Venom PS4, MAYFLASH F500 (PS4/PS3/XB1/XB360)

    CUSTOM VENOM PS4 MODEL CUSTOM MAYFLASH F500 MODEL PS4/PS3/XB1/X360 CUSTOM MAYFLASH F500 ELITE MODEL PS4/PS3/XB1/X360/Switch/iOS/Android
    Venom PS4/Mayflash F500 Panel Template Will also fit 8BitDo FC30, F500 Elite and Mayflash XB360/PS3/PC but requires replacement Mayflash F500 plexi panel. Not compatible with smaller Mayflash F300, Venom multi-console, or 8bitdo NS300 model (2Mb zip)

    The Venom PS3/PS4 model is a product of the UK and not sold in the USA.  It has the same form factor of the Mayflash F500 - a multi-console Fightstick. Please note that the Venom and Mayflash F500 already has its own removable panel for artwork. If you do not intend to replace the panel, you do not have to purchase a separate panel.  

    The artwork is also compatible with the 8Bitdo FC30 and older Mayflash XB360/PS3/PC models, but those models do not offer a clear plexi replacement panel.  Instead the plexi has artwork permanently attached to it, and would require purchasing a replacement Mayflash F500 panel.  

    We currently do not offer a 1:1 replacement plexi for these models due to its use of magnets to attach the panel.  You may find a replacement panel on Amazon. new-window-icon.png

    Installation

    Venom/Mayflash F500 Artwork Install - Step 1  

    There are six screws located at the bottom of the Venom PS4 and Mayflash F500.  The areas in green circle indicate where you will find the screws on the bottom panel.  A Phillips head screwdriver is used to remove them. 

    You must remove the pushbuttons before lifting the clear, magnetic acrylic panel. The wiring duplicates colors across two connectors,  Take note of the wire colors when detaching the quick disconnects, using the above photo as a guide, or taking your own photos of the wiring.

    		  
    Venom/Mayflash F500 Artwork Install - Step 2 Venom/Mayflash F500 Artwork Install - Step 3
    Once pushbuttons are removed, you can pull the acrylic panel upwards by grasping at the button holes.  Eventually the magnetic force will give way, and the panel will lift up. With the acrylic panel removed, you can now remove the original artwork from the Fightstick, then replace with your custom artwork. Reverse all of the steps to install the acrylic panel and close the Fightstick.
    Venom/Mayflash F500 Artwork Install - Installing on Mayflash PS3/Xb360/PC
    While the Mayflash PS3/XB360/PC and 8Bitdo FC30 Fightstick has a similar build as the Venom and Mayflash F500, they do not have a clear panel - the artwork is permanently attached to the panel.  You must replace the original panel with the F500 panel. You may find a replacement panel on Amazon. new-window-icon.png. As a reminder, this artwork is not compatible with the smaller Mayflash F300, Venom multi-console (featured red buttons instead of blue), or 8bitdo NS300 model

    Options

    You have several options to personalize your control panel, such as button layout, removal of control panel or screws in some models, button label etching, and text etching.

    REMOVING DEFAULT ELEMENTS | CUT BUTTON INSERTS

    Layout Configuration

    Each Fightstick has its own characteristics, with some sharing similar elements, such as the popular Vewlix button layout. We will specify what options are available for each Fightstick. Below are the most common button layout configurations:

    8 Button Vewlix
    First 6 Buttons
    Last 6 Buttons
    7 Button Vewlix
    8 Button Vewlix
    First 6 Buttons
    Last 6 Buttons
    7 Button Vewlix

    Removing Default Elements 

    Some Fightsticks, such as the popular MadCatz TE, offer additional personalization options by removing default elements such as control panel, start button, or screws.  Cut options are defaulted to their authentic counterpart, displayed as [YES (default)] in the options list.  For example, a MadCatz TE, the default configuration is to have the turbo/guide portion of the control panel cut, so that the control panel can fit properly.  You have the option to select [NO] to prevent cutting these areas.  

    Cut Control Panel? [NO]
    Cut Start Buttons [NO]
    Cut Middle and/or Bottom Screws? [NO]
    Cut Control Panel? [NO]
    Cut Start Button? [NO]
    Cut Middle and/or Bottom Screws? [NO]

    Cut Control Panel? [NO] - If you own a MadCatz TE, and installed a PS360+, you may no longer need the Turbo/Guide area of the control panel, located at top left.  This option allows you to remove the Turbo/Guide portion.  Please note that you MUST remove the actual control panel on the TE by unscrewing it before applying the plexi, or you risk damaging the plexi.  Also, please make certain to select this option if you are also choosing to have artwork printed, or the plexi and artwork won't match.

    Cut Start Button? [NO] - On some joysticks - such as the Qanba Q4 - the start button is directly on the panel.  You can select to have this removed.  You can also select this should you desire a panel similar to the Eightarc Fusion or Synthesis series Fightstick, as the start button is moved elsewhere.  Again, this option is available on specific joysticks.

    Cut Middle and/or Bottom Screws? [NO] - Selecting "no" on this option allows you to remove the middle top and bottom screw holes on specific joysticks, either for a cleaner appearance or to avoid rubbing your wrist against the screw.  Please reconsider this option if you intend to have a full panel etch on your plexi, as etching physically changes portions of the plexi due to heat.  In this case, it is best to leave the screw holes in place in order to keep the panel securely positioned.

    Cut Button Inserts

    Plexworks Diagram: Button Artwork Cut Size Comparison

    Pushbutton manufacturers such as Sanwa, Seimitsu, Crown and GamerFinger have each produced specific models with a clear or translucent plastic cap and flat plunger.  These are often used to display a graphical insert, allowing you to enhance the button's appearance.  That said, each button manufacturer has designed the artwork cap with a different diameter than their competitors. For example, GamerFinger's artwork cap has a diameter that is slightly larger than Seimitsu or Sanwa.  An insert cut for a Sanwa artwork cap will fit loosely when inserted into the GamerFinger artwork cap.  This is an undesirable result that can produce a white or colored ring around the insert. 

    Now, you can choose the button insert cut to match the pushbutton you intend to use.  This allows the insert to fit snugly within the cap.

    Brands and Model with Artwork Caps


    In some instances, a button brand or model does not have a 24mm equivalent with art cap.  In this case, we will cut to the default size of Sanwa 24mm insert.

    Please note that if you later intend to purchase a different button, you may need to get new button inserts or new artwork. If you are uncertain which button you may choose, Sanwa is chosen by default.

    24 vs 30mm

    When processing orders, a frequent mistake we found among new players is choosing the wrong size for action buttons, such as punch and kick.

    Within the fighting game genre, Japanese arcade buttons commonly consist of two diameter sizes: 24 millimeter and 30 milllimeter (mm). In most configurations, 30mm represents your action button.  These are front facing, appearing most prominent on your Fightstick control panel.  Option button, such as "Start", "Select", or more recently "Option", "Touch", or "Share" are usually 24mm.

    UPDATE: Owners of Neo Geo AES Joysticks will need 24mm pushbuttons instead of 30mm (Thanks SRK's DEZALB)

    Below is a visual representation of a common Fightstick control panel.  Throughout this article, we will mark 24mm in green, and 30mm in Orange.

    Common joystick configuration

    Checking the Proper Size

    button-30mm.pngAnother way that players can misinterpret the pushbutton size is by measuring the pushbutton plunger.  Have a look at the diagram at right.

    The plunger - the part that you press down to represent an input - is 25mm or a bit smaller in most 30mm pushbuttons.  Often this leads to the conclusion that one needs a 24mm button and not 30mm.

    Similarly measuring the button rim can lead to confusion, as it is intentionally larger than the button hole it is placed in.  You don't want to use these measurements.  Instead, review the button housing diameter, or the hole the button will be placed in.  You can do this with a caliper - a digital caliper is often quite helpful for this and other arcade-related projects.

    Control Panel Configuration

    Most Fightsticks from MadCatz, Hori, Qanba, and similar will use these two sizes.  How the buttons are used will depend on the model joystick that you own. Over time, we'll provide example configurations for specific popular Fightstick models and arcade cabinets using the color key for 24mm (green) and 30mm (orange).  We'll also expand the key for future models if another size is introduced, and we offer for sale.

    1. Accurate and beautiful artwork quality!

      Hi there, I just got my custom artwork through here and it came out really good and accurate to my mayflash 500 elite.

      Besides the tedious nature of replacing the stock black artwork on the mayflash, it looks amazing!

      Thanks focus attack for providing an incredible service and delivering quality product! 10/10 would get another custom artwork here again (:       on Dec 22nd 2022

    2. Artwork came out great!

      Following along with the template present by Focus Attack really saved lots of time! The artwork was really clean. I had a few questions that staff patiently answered when they had the time. Thankful to shop here. on Nov 19th 2022

    3. Extremely high quality print and easy to apply

      Installation was extremely easy and the detail on the pixel sprites was very sharp. I can even see the tiny sprites I put in. on Nov 7th 2022

    4. exactly what I was hoping for

      The print quality is high, the item durability seems as expected, and shipping was pretty quick. 5/5 service, would absolutely recommend to friends on Oct 19th 2022

    5. Superb

      I’ve had a few prints now and outside of one hiccup, which was rapidly corrected, and i’ve been very impressed

      All facets from the shipping quality to the printing to the cut outs are excellent.

      Highly recommended and very appreciated       on Oct 7th 2022

    6. Quality Printing and Cutting

      The printing is a little pricey for my liking, but it's very well worth it if you want custom artwork for your arcade stick.
      The art print I had had perfectly colored art and precisely cut out buttons and holes for the LED lights on the stick.
      It also shipped to me in sturdy cardboard and the art was in a nice plastic wrap for protection in transit.
      Would order a print from Focus Attack again.       on May 10th 2022

    7. Bit slow on the shipping sometimes but worth it.

      Great print. Ordered twice from them second time took a real long while because they were having printing issues and accrued a backlog but nothing too crazy expect to see your package after two weeks. I've been pleased with the print both times though so in time the product is always worth the wait. on Mar 18th 2022

    8. Shipped Quick and Looks Great

      Not much to say. Quality looks amazing, the print job was finished quick and it fit perfectly on my Mayflash on Jan 16th 2022

    9. Came out great but do read their notice about printing

      The printing quality is amazing and I love how the colors came out. Nice and brilliant. Though do be aware of their instructions and notices about printing, especially about how your monitor may brighten your artwork and will give you a false sense of security. I took some initiative and brightened the image more so that what I desired to mitigate whatever difference printing it may create. The bold colors came out beautifully while more darker colors ended up blending with the background. You can still see it, I just need good lighting in order to do so. Overall, I'm satisfied with this order because I took initiative, so be sure to read all the documentation before ordering and print out a test image at home to get an idea of how it may come out. on Nov 19th 2021

    10. A little blurry but otherwise perfect

      I absolutely love my print and it fits exactly as it is supposed to. My only gripe is that the image was slightly blurry but I think that could 100% be a cause of the image I uploaded. I would 100% recommend this product. on Sep 8th 2021
