FWIW, @PINSTEIN helped me get my Laser Ball translite made, very happy with his work!

I made this translite for my NGG.
Looks pretty good, only a little darker than the original so I had to install brighter LED's behind it. So it shows as being brighter (in spots) in the pic than in reality.

Quoted from pinballdork:Made a Alt translite with art purchased online. I changed the jewel in her head piece to red, and I will put a lamp behind it to light when her ruby lights. Also put a little blue Genie in it.

Without doubt, this is better than original.

Quoted from Mahoyvan:Roland update: Our machine can’t do white, but our next machine will when we upgrade. Apparently it will be able to print metallic as well which will be super rad.
Will that metalic look like mirrored?
Nah from what I can tell it looks more like what you see on Scratch & Win tickets. Shiny and foil like

Quoted from zimjoe:That Raven Translite looks good! How was it printed?
Walmart Photo Printing. They will same day print a 25X30 inch matte poster. A whopping $18.86! Raven happens to have a a 25X20 inch size translite so it works well.

Not a great shot but here’s an ALT Demolition Man translite

Nice and light - I don’t miss the heavy glass! As a bonus and something that I couldn’t do with glass, I put a working clock in the body of Tock, the watchdog.
