Still working on that... Once it's done, I will copy and paste it all over the pin just like they did on the Premium... Or, maybe I will put more effort into it. We'll see. It's unlikely I am getting this pin anyway. Nonetheless, the idea is that the black will be impenetrable by light and the red will shine strongly. The "MOTHERSHIP" lettering would be semi-transparent because this is where the LED light on Spike 2 shines the most and it will make an interesting illumination.
Quoted from metallik:Why are you so focused on mothership? That's just a 2007 greatest hits compilation released ostensibly to generate revenue. Historically it has nothing to do with the band. It's not even the first compilation.. Led Zeppelin Remasters came out in 1990.
I think Physical Graffiti would make an excellent backglass theme. Especially if you could stylize the head sideart into the sides of the building.
You might be right, but here's how I see it: Mothership is a compilation album, and if I understand this correctly, the pin features music from multiple albums. Both, the album, and the pinball machine were made to generate revenue, so let's just skip that element as there's no point discussing it. The Mothership design speaks to me and I see a few tricks that I could implement with it. I am not so much into about what is on the glass, as tastes vary, but more into how it is implemented, designed, and the tricks that I can play with illumination. Also, Black & White (or cream rather) + Red is a good combo IMO. You can never go wrong with that. If I ever get this pin, which is unlikely as I've never even listened to LZ, I'd definitely mod it so that it appeals to my tastes. This is meant to be a 4th alternative, and you're probably proposing the 5th Finally, the PF artwork isn't horrible... So, if the package is nicer, this pin could work for everyone, not just for the die hard LZ fans.
