Description
Back in the '80s heyday of traditional role-playing games,
Richard Tucholka's TRI TAC GAMES studio poured out a variety of compatible lines.
One of these was FTL 2448,
his entry into the "Space Adventure" genre dominated then by TRAVELLER.
I liked the clunky industrial feel of his designs. Here's my rendition of two of his craft,
the Nudge B (bottom) and Ontario (top).

Ben, Bells and Quag live! I liked that game too - just from reading it anyway, never got to play it. And I thought the designs were more 'realistic' - kind of like the Space:1999 Eagle was. Very nice painting. The stars and atmosphere are well done too. Is that Mars on the right?
It has that Traveller "Fighting Ships" look.
Excellent job Dave!!!
nice tribute the role-playing game
