A Traveller scene. A disabled Type-A Free Trader finds a way to fuse its systems to an ancient, derelict alien starship in order to limp its way back into the space lanes, where its eventually encountered by a Patrol Cruiser. Done around 1990 as a Traveller magazine illustration. I forget who the adventure story author on this one was (any help out there?).
I wish I could do comics with this quality. Alas, I was never fast enough... unless I wanted to just make the single Great American Comic Book in my life
Actually this image was published with the Megatraveller Adventure Mistaken Identity, on page 14 of Travellers' Digest Number 15. Second adventure in a series of 4.
He's never gonna let me live down that I forgot this was for his piece....
