Nipples are better than none no matter where they are, hehe.

But if you're asking, I'd move them horizontally. It's comic book art. They call it "headlights" in comics.
Here's a classic pose and note the way the artist interprets it:



I chose and cropped both images for their similarity to the body position of Uhuru.

Agreed... Uhuru's left nipple needs to move further round to the left... or.. as we look at it.. nipple on RHS shifted to far RHS.
Its all in the detail but none of us has noticed Spocks dagger

Nope.
Here's an anatomical study for ya.



I wouldn't have noticed anything odd except at first glance I had the odd feeling I was being watched. !^!

edit to add: I thought before posting that picture and decided it was OK to do it because it's no more naughty than dozens of pinball backglasses, and also in this case it is literally an anatomical study.

add about 30 percent to the size, and we have perfection. I used to enjoy those for 17 yrs til I got separated.

ahhh, the good old days.

but what someone said is right, no one does boobs better than on cartoon books/pictures etc. even the pinball teenage mutant ninja turtles features Aprils massive set of jugs.
why does cartoon art turn men on.lol   It just does. Great boobs and you are all goo goo within seconds.lol    admit it everyone.  *%*

Rev 7 Change log:
1) More nipple adjustment per anatomical study at AussiePinball.

2) Reduced "The mirror Universe" to be under Trek as suggested. Not sure I like it; but the forum participants have been vocal about it.

3) Changed Can play to more redish purple hue; so it's not completely standout.

4) Some sword shading under the planet to give it a more realistic look.



Gonna call this done unless someone wants to take the raw logo file and convert the red pattern background into a "blood red" sphere or something. I've reached the limited of my hobby grade knowledge of photoshop.

1) see below for my personal take (kind of too subtle maybe, but the placement is more what I remember)

2) Hmmm. I'm with you on this one I think. Yea, the text was hidden behind the airplane, but maybe there's another way...hmmm.

OK here. Just a little less subtle.

That looks good to me!

You could spend months tinkering with this  ^&^.  Maybe a blur or something is needed where the dagger pierces the planet but really it looks pretty good. Well done.

looks great but agree with the Mirror Universe - could the 1 to 4 play be lowered a little and then have the Mirror Universe on the side under the player 3, otherwise very nice work.

disagree, that will make it too far from the main title. Its called star trek the mirror universe, so I think it needs to be in close proximity.

I'm not on my own PC so I can't edit pictures right now, but is this a possibility?
Lay it out something like this:
___________________________________
|STAR       [UFO PICTURE]    the MIRROR|
|   TREK    [                  ]    UNIVERSE  |


To me it seems that the "mirror universe" part of the title actually has more to do with defining the game than the "Star Trek" franchise declaration, so equal size, style and color font would be appropriate. This way you could have it balance out between the left and right half and give "mirror universe" it's appropriate prominence, and of course the flying paper plate divides the two halves by default. And even the dividing in half kind of gives it a mirror-ish mental effect while you're reading it.

good call vinito  ^^^

also you need to add Zitt in a signature font to the end of the existing signature as now it is a combined effort of artwork. Work it to the very last sloped letter.
