Hardware boxes scans
Hardware boxes scans
I was wondering, are there high resolution (let's say 300DPI at least) scans of original hardware boxes somewhere?
Especially Oric-1, Atmos? (and Telestrat, and Microdisc, printers, Jasmin drives, etc. etc.)

Not that I know of, but would be nice to have some proper unfolded ones in high resolution, to reprint boxes

I think the easiest way is to take a picture and going into photoshop, gimp ... to rebuild it
+ a 3d model for the protection system inside

Re: Hardware boxes scans
I will try and scan some, but no deadline promises.
And I don't think I have a clean Oric-1 box - too bad I cut mine into pieces in the 80s :'(

All that remains is to make the polystyrene holder with an insulating foam spray and a terracotta mould.
Re: Hardware boxes scans
The boxes are a bit big for scanners. Some nice photos would be easier.
Re: Hardware boxes scans
I made 600DPI scans of an Oric-1 box, but it's really an old one sadly, the only one I have.
It's the version without typos.
I'll try and upload it somewhere some day, I'm running out of time right now.

Re: Hardware boxes scans
Apparently Franck Médioni is going to be selling reprints of the Atmos box "soon" (on the "Oric 1 & Atmos Owners/Users" Facebook group.

Re: Hardware boxes scans
Good news!
I should stop ranting about Oric infos being scattered in social media, and join some facebook groups.
BTW I'll try to picture Microdisc and Telestrat boxes (scanning is too complicated)

Re: Hardware boxes scans
The boxes are available now on Etsy

Originally he only had the 3D renders, but he added a video showing the actual box.

Re: Hardware boxes scans
It's looking really nice. I ordered one.
Re: Hardware boxes scans
I also ordered one.
I'm not quite sure the font he used is the proper one, but still better than nothing

I agree with this assessment, it's also one of the points I noted on my new Oriclopedia video:nobbysnuts wrote: ↑Sat Sep 09, 2023 8:43 pm had mine delivered yesterday . Nice print. only criticism is cards really thin
