Jinxian Lander (Ringworld)

This is an old drawing of mine - from about the time I started work in the RPG illustration field. It depicts an interpretation of the Jinxian lander used by Louis Wu and Chmee in the Ringwrold sequel, "Ringworld Engineers". I'm posting this because a few old friends were asking me to. I'll be the first to admit it's got a few accuracy problems - main one being it's too tall and skinny. But it still works as an interesting image, plus it shows a key transition point in my illutsration style, converting many of my mechanical drafting skills into a more stylized approach.

This was pen and ink on nasty (tm) paper.
