Quoted from cottonm4:

This is the link from the donor and the play field that was sent to Mirco. A close look shows there was a lot of touch up going on with the rack of balls.
It is nice to be advised before full scale production got started. Corrections can be made and it looks like we are going to have a nice repro NB play field when all is said and done.
I still pinch myself when I think about how the donor posted in the "what machine did you bring home today" thread. I saw that NB being dragged home and I saw the donor's address was Germany. I could not pass this chance up. I just had to send out a PM and was overjoyed when the donor stepped up and said he would contact Mirco and when Mirco took delivery of the donor play field I was doing back flips.
Now I have to contact Pinball Pimp and order some cabinet stencils.

I have always felt, to never rely on just one playfield... but at least three deferent playfields to
scan and compare...

Quoted from PinMonk:

This is a remake done in less than an hour, from scratch. It's not an issue of bad art, it's an issue of bad/lazy artist.
EDIT: Looking at that source playfield SOME of these errors were from the bad touchup donor playfield, but not all of them. Also, great example of why turning the art to the community before running them is a good idea.

To me, the hard part is to reproduce is all of the small stardust dots...
On Gottlieb Black Hole, they added a second white screen to add all the small dots over
the final artwork.

Quoted from cottonm4:

And the blue color around the "Thousand" is different, as well.

and even the black "bubble" transitions are off.
I would think with the high technologies of today,
that copying artwork would be more precise.
