Hi, I have a fully functioning Fish Tales but the cabinet artwork is quite faded. Was thinking of replicating the images and colors on vinyl and applying to the cabinet. Does this sound like a good idea, does it hurt the value of the pinball? Is there a resource to find out what the original colors were i.e. the actual color values for a printer not just ""dark blue"etc. Many thanks

Save yourself a pile of work, Planetary Pinball is already selling fully licensed and correct artwork:

It does not hurt the value of the game unless it’s done poorly. Some folks value the playfield more than the cabinet, so, just having new decals on the cabinet doesn’t instantly make the game more valuable.
