Well, here it is. Possibly the most complex piece I’ve worked on to date. The artwork for the Ponyville Crush pinball table’s backglass element, which is installed in front of the player together with the score, remaining plays, bonuses, etc.
The faded text (such as the numbers in the stars, ‘Game Over’ and ‘Large Jackpot’) will not actually be included on the printed artwork but instead become visible when the appropriate bulb lights up behind it.
The Ponyville Crush pinball project also has a completed set of artwork for the table’s plastics. You can find them assembled here: >>1179474”

Gottlieb used fluorescent panel displays for the scoring up through the 1980s.
It was a common sight in EM games
And I suppose I shouldn’t be too surprised by the simple scoreboard. Building a pinball machine is hard enough without having to program an alphanumeric or dot matrix display.
