BGG,Originally posted by Black Globe Generator:... I think the humorous slant of D.J. Barr's illustrations in JTAS and elsewhere capture the adventurers' experiences perfectly...
Heh. Then I did my job right with that one!Originally posted by Bill Cameron:
P.S. re: Vamp's work, I do not want to be the smuggler Commodore Feng is looking for. Just looking that guy gives me the willies.
That's the one.Originally posted by Bill Cameron:
If Barr is the artist I think you're referring to, I very much agree....One had two fellows arguing over a manuscript in a wonderfully cluttered library. They may have been two illos in the series, IIRC. Another had a alien tree rat of some sort hanging from the overhead of some compartment with a set of keys with the players trying to retrieve the keys.
Most definitely. Puts me in mind of my longest-running second-in-command, Atlantis Hemoglobin. Mind you, the player was a big Miami Vice fan (still is after all these years).Originally posted by Jeff M. Hopper:

Ooh, I like both these ideas!Originally posted by Jeff M. Hopper:
If I may add a refinement to the "group shot with starship" vote. Place some Vargas-style nose art on the ship and have at least one of the crew wearing a Hawaiian (sp?) shirt.
Please? With rum on top?

Vamp,I still haven't decided whether I'm going to go with "group in front of their starship waiting for their patron on some backwater" or "group speaking to patron in starport (or in startown)."
Scene: Landing bay
- front end of scruffy free trader visible complete with nose art
- a couple of cargo containers nearby
- loading/unloading obviously taking place
- one container open and contents scattered about
- one or two players and patron haggling next to container
- remainder of player group either looking on laughing or waiting to start working again
