Can anyone who has seen the photos confirm how close it looks to being done? Are we talking whitewood or full artwork? Also, they did such a good job on the movie that I am not sure most people are going to realize its based on the comic instead.

Movie Deadpool and Comics Deadpool are not really all that different. This is not the X-Men Origins: Wolverine version of Deadpool where the character was unrecognizable. This isn't even like X-Men, where the movie versions of the characters do not wear the same uniforms as their comic book counterparts. I would say this is going to be more like Spider-Man, where if you play the movie or comic versions on the different versions of the Stern machines, the character is still fundamentally the same. I would understand losing interest in a comic book version of this pin if that version of Deadpool looked or acted completely different, but it is going to be the same 4th wall breaking, over-the-top, jokey Deadpool as the Reynolds version. They might even bring in Cable or Colossus or some of the other X-Men to give subtle nods to the movie.
I really do not think there will/should be any difference in routing this if its based on the comics or the movie. Look at the panels that Wolfmarsh posted and see how similar the character is both in appearance and in tone to the RR version. A casual fan of the Deadpool movie would probably still assume that the pin was based on the movie. Plus think of how much more creative freedom Stern will have with the license if they are not beholden to movie studios, screen actors guilds, etc.
To the Chosen Ones who have witnessed the almighty pictures, how close to "finished" does the game look design-wise? Just looking for a percentage estimate. You do not have to reveal anything that was in the photos. With Maiden slipping in the schedule, I am worried this will get pushed back too.
This Week in Pinball (http://thisweekinpinball.com/twip-iron-maiden-stream-mgc-preview-new-podcasts-deadpool-speculation-trudeau-update-more/) had an interesting tidbit about Deadpool today. Some are saying two left ramps, upper playfield, and a third flipper but that does not match the other info that TWIP has.
Quoted from ATLpb:Maiden is a smash success for many reasons to many pinheads - one being having nearly complete code on launch.
So basically... no rush. I’ll take it being a better game and coming next year over a crap game in July.
I think another reason was a refreshing new design with lots of shots. I am hoping Deadpool keeps up the trend.
