If I can get permission to post a higher resolution proper pic I will, but need to make sure it's cool first, don't want to annoy Fox.

It's totally cool if you have critical comments, I can take it. Don't worry about hurting my feelings, I dish it out, have to be open to criticism.

I'll try and get you a better version to see though. These pics in this thread are pretty washed out and low in detail. Not really representative.

The response in person tonight was great, was really nice to meet so many fans of the film. And hopefully next year also of the game!

This version should actually be a bit more up to date, though it's mostly subtle stuff that's changed from the version Andrew posted. Best I have from my phone, it's 2am here at Expo and it's what I have.

Be happy later to talk more about the backglass and the process etc, but I'll wait until it's not late at night and I have a better keyboard than my phone. Besides, either you like it you don't, I don't want to try and convince anyone.

I will say though that it's worth clicking to enlarge so you can see the details, like the facehuggers etc.

I welcome comments, critical or positive or anything else though. It's healthy. I do it to other games, happy to have turnabout be fair play.

Also, expect that the LE backglass will be different than this one. That will come later though.

I wrote up some quick thoughts about the artwork process in the main Alien thread here:

https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/alien-pinball-official-game-thread/page/49#post-2744933

The short version is that the brand requirements for this were pretty fixed in place, as far as what I could use and where I could take it. So I worked with what I had, and I stand behind that work, not apologizing for it. But it's also not what I would have done if I had total freedom. If you want total freedom don't license, and don't get the awesome Alien(s) universe.

Totally cool to be critical! I have thick skin, you won't hurt my feelings. I'm in my Expo hotel room, getting ready to get going, so I'm not going to directly address any specific comments at this time, but I will read and respond more later.

To everyone who had positive things to say, thanks, I do appreciate it. And if you had concerns, I can't promise I can address them all, but hang tight for the playfield art.

Quoted from John_I:

The 90's called. They want their crappy projector back from Expo.

I think it looked fine in person, but I was sitting to the side of it on stage and couldn't really see it.
