DDR/DS (Dancing Stage) machine for project

[Kage]

Hey, for my university project, I have to create an animation of some kind.
I'm kind of hooked on DDR (Dance Dance Revolution/Dancing Stage) at the moment, and so have decided to do something on this.

I don't think this has been modelled before on here in my knowledge?

I first went to my local arcade and took some reference images of the Supernova machine.

I then yesterday started boxing the unit out, and started work on the pad itself.

Comments are welcome. I have no idea on dimensions, so I'm going by eye.
It is hopefully going to be detailed enough to look like the real thing, but we'll see I took a break from 3D modelling for a while, so its also for practise

UPDATED:
This is an updated image from the last page on here of what I have so far of the pad:



This is the machine itself that I'll try and replicate:



I' going to split the parts up next so I'm not working on them all at once, making them as detailed as possible, and then merging back.
I have no idea how I'm going to make textures yet, but they'll probably end up being hand done.
