I think this art is by Jeff Laubenstein, but I'm having a hard time tracking it down. If anybody knows where this image is originally from it would be greatly appreciated.

It's from the book 20 Year Update , FASA part number 1639.

This picture is on the bottom of page 31, about the War of 3039. (Hans Davion vs Theodore Kurita). I'd be happy to send more pictures if you've interest.

Laubenstein is listed as a cover artist only, and I can't read the signature in the picture. The illustrators are listed as Joel Biske, Jimbo "Golf shoes" Nelson, Earl Geier, Rick Harris, and Tim Bradstreet.

That would be great, I would appreciate as much art as you'd like to share. Are you getting your artist list from your personal copy? Sarna lists Jeff Laubenstein among the other artists for the interior. Yeah the signature doesn't look very helpful, maybe somebody else will match it.

From my copy, yes. I can take pictures next week, sadly I am travelling today. Is there anything in particular you'd like in terms of content or source? Here's an almost up to date picture of my BT shelves. https://imgur.com/gallery/v3Jzc5M

I prefer older art but I think all of what you have would be interesting to see. Whatever you feel like posting I think the community would like.

Cool, I can do that.
