P-47 Freedom Fighter bezel

I'm finalizing a fully vectorized (SVG) and very detailed version of Jaleco's P-47 bezel. It is based on a high res scan (damaged original bezel) available on arcadeartwork's site. Almost 90% done including "restoration" of damaged areas.
Unfortunately in that source image the lower (below the instruction boxes) and upper (top part of the p47 tail) are missing.
I noticed that this bezel is also part of the Mame artwork WIP since a long time. The image on that page is low res, so no chance to use it to recreate the missing parts in SVG.
I also searched the web extensively but only few and low quality pics can be found.
Any chance anybody could provide a higher res image or (good) pictures of the bezel (or at least the mentioned missing areas) ?
Thanks in advance.

Um... everything on that page is available in a full size scan... you just need to ask.
Wish you had asked sooner... the version on arcadeartwork is completely cutoff... the one I have is fullsize, and in almost perfect condition... just a few wrinkles here and there.

RELAX and just have fun. Remember, it's all about the games.

Almost finished. To do: color mapping check and apply some fine tuning edits.

Bezel and Marquee completed. High res versions uploaded onto Mr Do's drive.
Bezel is entirely recreated with vectors; it is based on 2 different scans: Arcadeartwork's bezel (higher detail but significantly damaged and cropped) and Mr Do's full bezel (lower res, but only some scratches and full image.) The bigger planes were taken from the higher res scan to get more detail.

Marquee source is good res but wrong colors and multiple things (damages) to be fixed. Additionally it's bent a little on the right side. Therefore recreated this in vectors too, except the internal halftoning of the P-47 text.
Both NOT for commercial use.

Thank you... both look amazing!!!
Do you want credit under RaspBear, or the username on the text file you sent me?
Also... let's just get this out of the way, regarding the Commercial Use comment.
And... this is not to be mean or harsh or anything... just honest...
If you are worried about seeing anything you work on being offered for sale later, either on eBay or an arcade artwork website, then just stop now, because it IS going to happen, simply because the file is available for download on the internet.
It doesn't mean that that person will ever actually sell the thing... just that make it look available, so that they have "more stuff."
Also... it won't be the reputable sites, like This Old Game... Rich does amazing work, but everything there is his own, or work other people have done and sent to him to offer for sale.
It'll be the "cheap" sites, that usually have poor printing standards or quality control, etc. "Real" arcade collectors know to stay away from these sites.
So be advised... everyone that is here understands this, and we keep doing it, because of the love of the project, just like MAMEDev continue to work on MAME under similar circumstances.
Do this because YOU want to do it, and you enjoy it. Period. Without worries about anything outside of the project.

The username in the txt thanks, as I also use that for other artwork I create for Retropie.
>NOT for commercial I'm aware will be used anyway...

Yes, fully agree :-)
