I found this image when looking for a good picture to represent “classic cyberpunk” in my post yesterday. I wanted to share the full image though.

      If you can find a good source of that old shadowrun artwork I’d love to keep posting it here for all to enjoy… and as part of my devious scheme to keep this community active.

        When I think of Shadowrun I think of this artwork.

        Must have been in a book I got from a friend for a while, long time ago. But a lot of Shadowrun artwork is made with a similar formula, someone is hacking something (oddly missing here though), some shooting at someone, maybe some magic.

        Edit: taking a second look. They are hacking, looking at that cable and box.

    Molly millions/Sally shears/steppin razor and her mirror shades. Really though armitage is peak cyberpunk in that story. Deranged, tragic, and inevitable destruction.

      Her outfit in this image really bothers me. She looks like an extra in a Miami Vice B-movie rip-off. I don’t think those ballet flats would stay on very long in a fight. Maybe her clothes are designed to cause 1D6 of cringe damage at the start of any combat phase.

      And it’s kinda funny how MC’s “deck” looks like an IBM Model M keyboard . I wonder if it makes the classic clacking sound.
