[QUOTE="The Green Adam, post: 4486423, member: 50821"] My point exactly and Traveller especially. Why? Because in order to alter the perception that its dated it needs a look that really stands out and grabs people attention. It needs to generate the same interest and excitement it did in 1977 but appeal to a 2008-9 consumer who has watched and read science fiction with solid art, design and effects. In Japan, Traveller was illustrated by Katoh Naoyuki, a noted illustrator and painter who was famous for doing the covers of numerous Western SF Novels before being hired to do Traveller. Amoung his works were the covers of Starship Troopers, The Forever War and the Foundation Trilogy. You can see his work, including some of his Traveller illustrations at [url=http://homepage2.nifty.com/NaoKatoh/]‰Á“¡‚³‚ñ‚¿‚ÌŽdŽ–ê[/url] and there are addition Japanese Traveller images at [url=http://www.luice.or.jp/~kemkem/TRAVELLER/traveller.html]TRAVELLERƒR[ƒi[”à[/url] I collect Japanese pen & paper RPGs. I suppose I needed a way of being EVEN MORE GEEKY! :eek: Right now I'm feeling a little depressed about the current lack of a Sci-Fi RPG that does what I want and looks good.
