Quoted from jr-007:What do you think about the use of universe's pictures for the background.
Love the stars in background, I would want some purple and blueish highlights to better show the close star at his arm so it doesn't look like a white flashlight glare. Not a lot of color but just enough to define it without overtaking the Alien.

Star inserts are nicer by giving the light underneath more pop.
I think it would look more modern.

I invite all of you to look at the photo gallery in an Alien Poker topic.

You will be able to see that the new repro playfield has starburst inserts and imo looks fantastic.
This was something that was discussed in previous topics and a vote was taken to use starburst over the opec inserts.
I am an owner of this playfield although not installed as of yet, incase any feel my opinion is biased.

Quoted from FantasticPinball:No clearcoat on this. I have to figure out if we have to sand this down and try again, or prep a second whitewood and start over. I think the white looks cool, but certainly it is a defect.
Clear it and sell at a small discount. Someone will grab it.
