Interesting piece on Syd Mead

Not directly Traveller related, but a lot of his work can be cribbed into your TU without much work

His Sentury II book just came out today on Amazon and other sites.

Thanks for the heads-up!!! I've got a Japanese copy of the first Sentury that I picked up 3 or 4 years ago for a reasonable price (maybe $40-50?, can't remember), but the cheapest I see on eBay right now for S-1 is $200

Gonna' have to get S-2 on Amazon ASAP while it's still at $32.97

Book arrived today, and it looks pretty cool (and it's in English, yay!). Not quite as thick as S-1, but it looks real good on my shelf next to my copies of Sentury (1), Oblagon, and Sentinel

Got my book today. Yep. Looks good with my other Syd books (and Bladerunner books). Reading through it makes me what to do some 3D models of living spaces on ships (Syd Mead style).
