What SF artist or book cover artwork reminds you of Traveller?

[Thunderbolt]

Very nice images, very evocative of the Foss / Elson look.

I only mention my site here as it may be useful to others looking to obtain copies of these brilliant out-of-print books.

Digital Waterfalls can be found at http://www.digitalwaterfalls.co.uk/

Being a huge TTA fan, I love your work. Great stuff! And one of these days I'm going to find a copy of Space Wreck.

Do you know anything about the plans to do a TTA Traveller book? There was a guy around here about a year ago who was planning on doing one, but I don't recall seeing any further posts about it.

Maybe it has something to do with exposure? I'm in the US, and while I'm familiar with McQuarrie, the other names don't ring a bell. Elson's works figured prominently in the old Terran Trade Authority books, and since so many of his paintings sparked my imagination, his was a name I latched on to.

Without going back and looking, anyone mention Wayne D. Barlowe? His Barlowe's Guide to Extraterrestrials was another book that fired my imagination.

I actually had the first edition paperback, with the silver cover, until it's binding fell apart, due to the glue failing, caused by aging...
I loved the fact that a scale guide to the aliens depicted, was included, along with his concept sketches for Thype...

I got a hardback Barlowe's back when it came out, and I didn't (and still don't) agree with many of his illustrations.
