Interesting Josh about getting your backside handed back to you on a plate by some of the other players turning you to debris - who are the ones to steer clear of when we get to join in? :)

You rascal! ;)
I had to run GIMP and do increase the screen.... it looks like some kind of room... may be inside the station or inside the ship?
And the image in the center like a girl's head, no?

Loving these interviews Ashley....Great idea..

Nice to meet you Josh...Gives me chance to thank you for using your Concept Art when building Elite Forever...

One question though....How accurate does the concept art finally get used in the game and how much do you think you influence the look of Elite ?

Thanks Again ;)

Hey Synchromesh

It depends what the purpose of the art was, if the image is about trying to work out the look of mining for example, I wont torture myself getting the right ship in, as that's not what the image is for and not an efficient use of time.

I'm not sure how much I'll influence it, but it's nice that you guys seem to enjoy my work and hopefully it inspires the team!

Ooooh! I know I know *holds hand up*

Some of you are close, others... are not. Ashley thought it'd be fun to include that, to give you guys some extra fun, it's his fault.

Tease! :p Hmmm there does look like a spiral galaxy on the right hand side of picture, funny place for a map though?

My heads going back and forth to the screen trying to get a better picture! wife is wondering what am doing!

I think your right its a scanner, i think the girl image is a ship, maybe a planet/moon behind it?

looks like securty camera footage of a dock shipped undergoing maintenance.. and the big object above the ship is the refuelling unit..

Have you noticed the person sitting in front of Josh (at the bottom on the left, which has a headphone on the head) ? I ask myself what she placed around her screen.

While we are at it there are loads of pictures of ships pinned to the wall at the back. I'm sure FD have done this on purpose to watch and see what happens. Wild speculation that's what!!!
