I stumbled upon Total Nuclear Annihilation at Lyons Pinball, fun machine from a manufacturer I haven't really been following. That said, anyone else feel the complete lack of art on the playfield? I mean, the translite wasn't really much better, but I was surprised a good machine had such an obvious oversight?

Artwork is a subjective thing. I think the artwork is great and fits the theme and era. Very tasteful artwork in my view, but to each their own of course.

Don't look at the playfield as just the paint - look at the integration with the lightshow and the lighting effects. Sometimes less is more.

Quoted from zacaj:

It's very abstract

Yes. I prefer quality artwork on the playfield, like Fathom, or Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, as two examples. I hate the photoshop heads on modern Sterns. But even those are better than the blank canvas on TNA. I hear about the lights, so again, just my opinion.
