Now for some artwork specific to the novels:

Do you know that there are more than A HUNDRED illustrations on these pages? I'm pretty much telling the whole story in color here! Don't be lazy....buy the bookS!

One Corner Of "Benito Base"© 2006 (So nicknamed by Ralph Krimson after he and the troupe were held there.)

Two mediums sitting and a small coming in.

EarthCon

"The fascist ambience is 'accablant'...!"

This is the next to smallest class...

The classic, half-block-long class.

The lethal EarthCon Man-O-War©. These are the medium sized battleships Earth Consolidated uses to control the space corridors and Earthside rebellions. They can be as large as three city blocks!

Here we have three EarthCon "Man-O-Wars"© 2004

Patrolling the area between Earth and Mars. Looks like a bit of a traffic jam, eh?

The battle ensuing after the Dragoons discover Thrace's treachery in "Almagest"....

"Large Man-O-War On Mars"© 2004 -

These are the ones that can get as long as three full 20th century blocks.

"Turreted Large Man-O-War On Mars"© 2004

Morning - North Side Midday - North Side Twilight - North Side Evening - South Side Night - South Side

"Large Man-O-Wars Lurking Outside Guerropolis"© 2005 -

Two of the larger editions of EarthCon's journeyman warship fleet parking themselves arrogantly right outside the first, and largest, single domed city of Mars.

REALLY bad problems are handled by the even more dreaded "Flying Fortress"© 2004, a massive ship over two miles long!

"Flying Fortress"© 2004

Uh....That's one of THESE bad boys! Notice the relative size of the man-o-wars in comparison...?

"Forward Flying Fortress"© 2004

"Flying Fortress In Orbit"© 2004

"Flying Fortress On Patrol w/Escort"© 2005

"Dorsal of Flying Fortress w/Contingent"© 2005 -

Containing those upstart rebel MoonShielders!

West view

East view

"EarthCon Panamerican East District Headquarters"©2004

Nicknamed "Benito Base" by Ralph. With two medium-sized Man-O-Wars sitting right on each tarmac!

"EDH Main Building"© 2004 -

With 'ECF this and ECF that' stamped all over it.

MarsShield

(The good guys)

"Protecting the Sovereign State of Mars"

"MarsShield WC-1 On Patrol"© 2008

The latest upgrade of the WC-1 "Planetoid Buster" Warship

A "Planetoid Buster" Class WC-1© These are the big guns of the "MarsShield" arsenal. These guys are roughly the size of a medium-sized EarthCon Man-O-War. All three of the dorsal cannons can blast asteroids to bits. The secret of THESE babies, since ALL MarsShield interplanetary units are fitted with planetoid-destroying guns, is that there is a bank of computerized guns under the dorsal side that can track and pummel an opponent in no time at all! All MarsShield ships have invisibility circuits, for stealth.

"Patrolling The Perimeter"© 2007 Stephen Turner

"Matilda & North America"© 2007 S.T.

Two classes of MarsShield warships: A "Planetoid Buster" WC-1 And Two WE-1 Escort ships©2001...on their way to the Mother Planet.

A "WE-1 On Lone Patrol Over The Martian Frontier". ©2004 Certain models of this small escort class have cannons on the top that can shatter whole asteroids as well!

"WC-1 Convoy/Barges"©2004 in repose during twilight maneuvers on Mars. Certain models of this class also have cannons on the top that can shatter whole asteroids! (MarsShield doesn't pull any punches!)

Another "WC-1 Convoy/Barge"© 2004, but this time on earth, trying to slip under EarthCon radar!

"Convoy Barges Scouting Martian North Pole"© 2000-2007

"There They Go!"© 2005

Two WE-1s and a WC-1 barge leaving Guerropolis on an important mission.

A crucial mission starts!

A touchy mission gathers momentum!

"Matilda & Friend & Enemy"© 2003

Kessel's ace gunmen dispatching a nasty Man-O-War as they go to replenish their ballistic supplies. However, in the book, that Man-O-War is a good bit further away...

"Hiding Behind The Moon"© 2005 -

Playing it safe, with EarthCon patrols in the Mars-to-Earth corridor.

"The Retrieval Ambush"© 2005 - A very climactic scene in the book! (And I'm not going to spoil it for you here!)
