Here is a new WIP.
The SEGA Dreamcast VMU!
I originally planned on doing two versions. This and a version with just the VMU.
I think I am cancelling that idea. The screen resolution is a dismal 48 x 32 pixels and looks terrible if it is scaled any larger.
This looks way better than i envisioned Duimon, can’t wait to add this to my VMU games!
I’ve been feeling it was a bit too flat. I had tried to give it some subtle shading to add dimension and failed.
I tried again. 
What does everyone think?
The shot shows a little bit of banding… it is not as bad in the original. (Some of it is due to JPG conversion by the forum.)
It looks real good the only complaint I would have is the Dreamcast Sticker. I would move the Dreamcast down a tiny bit.
I agree. I was going off a source image but it may be an illusion because of the thickness of the decal.
I may also toy with the new shading a bit.
Thanks for the feedback.
Here is the final version.
I changed the shading a bit. To accommodate the illusion I conceptually changed the top light source from an infinite light to an omni light. The drop shadows have been adjusted to reflect the change.
Since I have no reason not to, I will be exporting separate layers so things can be changed up.
Getting this into the repo will have to wait for a bit. The shader update forces me to spend some time editing presets. In particular there was a bug that I have been working around (That is now fixed.) and some feature additions I haven’t properly made use of.
All my preset editing is done and the changes have been committed to the repo.
A few select things may look funky if you aren’t using the current version of the shader. (Then a few things may have been looking funky before. 
I fixed a few outstanding errors. )
The VMU is in the repo.
Keep in mind that my main goal in creating separate layers was only to change the color of the logo swirl.
You can make other color changes but your results will vary depending on the width of your display’s color gamut.
Fun things can be done though.
That brings my system count to 138 width a tentative total of 160. I am still not sure about doing the fds, Satallaview, 64DD, and the Amigas.
VMU looks really nice! It completed my dreamcast needs, thanks again sir.
I personally would love having FDS, Satellaview, and 64DD since i have those in my collection, but i use your JAP counterparts for those roms (except n64) and it looks great already. I wouldnt complain if you didnt want to do them.
@Duimon I don´t know if you are taking requests, hope not to bother in case you aren´t. Recently a member of one crt group posted a video of his setup with a IKEGAMI TM14-17RZ that i fall in love with all the image composition, and the first person i thought was you, i´d be a dream if you can make this image, i had to try and come here to ask you.
I had plans on doing that model later but I think @TheNamec beat me to it.
I don’t have a list of the PVM’s he has done but I think that is one of them.
He made the 1440R https://forums.libretro.com/uploads/default/original/3X/f/0/f02a68f8b441a47cb6ae94105f92386897e27ca7.jpeg, i think the IKEGAMI TM14-17RZ has beautiful analog knobs, can you consider making this one with the same perspective (all attention is centered on the screen and doesnt look flat at all)
Yeah, I could do it but my style does not, and will not, include perspective. Cohesiveness is a core part of my mission statement.
Actually 1550R. If you find a frontal, well lit reference image, I can try a take on 17RZ. I can see lots of similar elements, vectors are nice for reuse of graphics! Is that shadow-mask or slot-mask?
Perspective is way more your thing, and it looks like they reused a lot of hardware for these models.
I will probably do it anyway. I like the fact that it will pretty much fill up the 16x9 space.
No reason we can’t both do a version.
On another note. I have been combing through my TV and monitor presets looking for those that use increased black edge thickness and changing things to empty tube space.
While I was in deep I decided to finish my work on the more realistic TV6.
This makes use of just about every feature @HyperspaceMadness has added to increase CRT Tube realism.
I did some work on the shadows that will carry over from this alternate version to the standard version, changed the wallpaper color, and adjusted some saturation and gamma to quiet the scene a bit.
That has always been my thought, that the top down viewpoint of my graphics renders them mute because the addons would be hidden by the console.
I will probably do something though since the Batocera team will want a separate graphic. Although I am creating plenty of graphics for that project that are not in this collection, it would be odd to do those and not include them here.
If your going to follow through with it I would use them, hard to do those stackable addons with your current top down style. You could just use the famicom graphics for nes/snes and just add a FDS and Satellaview logo on there. 64DD could just use the current n64 bezel with a 64dd logo perhaps. I know thats not very exciting haha…but if the Batocera team will want the graphic, it is a solution.
That TV6 looks like it has real glare! I use all your tv graphics for game commercials and old promo videos, etc. Would someday love to see as many real TVs as you have console presets lol.
I’m not yet sure what I will do, possibly a hybrid. I will have to do some mockup’s and see what looks good. In any case I will put them off for last.
After I finish my list I plan on adding many vintage TV’s.
I just finished setting up my TV6 presets from scratch.
I removed all the “half-hearted” methods in the original to make it much more simple, and create feature space between it and the alternate.
I also created scaled presets.
I neglected to state specifically, that these are updated in the repo. 
Time to start the next graphic.
