Gudday all.

Here's Starfighter.  It switches between a Harald's Stripped Fetto vero layout, and a two channel BE-OD on Bugg's Thermionic Distortion pcb.

Fairly straightforward.  Apparently you can switch the gain pots with a 3dpt but I decided to just use a 4pdt and switch all the wires at once plus LED.  The Tight pot is moved offboard to make the enclosure layout make more sense with the 2nd gain pot.  Same value pots, as I didn't expereiment with values at all. 

There's a Gunstar in the background of the image but you have to look pretty hard as it came out more transparent in the print than it did on screen.

Edit:  There's ONE knob out of line, and it's giving me the irrits.

For some reason, the targeting reticle was the only element from the film I could vividly recall.  I remember thinking that was so cool.

I tried to include the HUD in someway, but failed miserably.

Great graphic design! You could have tried to destribute the pots evenly but I guess not everybody has that wierd symmetry ocd like me :D

Sometimes you have to sacrifice symmetry for the greater artwork. I increased the ergonomics of it by colour coding the knobs!
