last one...

Dennis probably designed most of this until he ended his contract a few days ago, so we will see if it will change any. Heighway design and then played it digitally to get a few for the flow and then build.

Looking good.  ^^^

Is Russell (SlamTilt) doing the digital versions swinks? He makes a lot of Future Pinball tables and mentioned a while ago on his blog he was contracted to create a Full Throttle version.

I am not sure but by the sounds of what he has told me and posted on Pinside it is done in house but those models look like solidworks 3d models, here is mine of the cabinet with a older version of solidworks. The beauty of solidworks is that you can look all around from different views and set material types, the realistic look (better on the newer versions) and it even tells you the total weight of your project and where things are clashing / interfering when they shouldn't.

Yes, you are right about being done in-house.

Looks like he is an employee now, not just a contractor.

I like the look of it and love the theme. It'll be interesting to see it come together.

Also keen to see the progress on this, seems like some good changes. Not surprised to see the "middle" flipper move more to the right.

Also like any physical ball lock, hope the balls will be visible.  &&

Looks like the space jockey wheel has gone though, shame.....

I don't like the coffee table SS surround personally but they have some good ideas and reckon this would be heavier than a WOZ
