There's another one in that line (also in SR2) ; it's a picture with three
guys hiding behind a car shot full of holes. I think the 'happy gunner' is
the one in the middle. I love that picture!

Page 77 SR2. Also check out the page near the start of the Gear chapter.
It's one of the same characters as in the picture on p. 77 and a good buddy
of the "happy gunner",...he's sitting at a table loaded with guns'n'crap
(tm).

If you mean the guy on p.9 of the BBB2, with the button that reads

Page 77, if it is the one I"m thinking of. Although "happy" is on the
end.
One of these days, I'm going to make up a low-cyber bounty hunter who uses
only "old" weapons (revovlers, double barrel shotguns, couple lever
actions) based on that guy in the middle...

In our last one, Lady J & RunnerPaul spoke about the "happy gunner" thus:

It's on pg. 77 of the BBB2, and he's the guy in the back (not the middle).
Compare the tat over his right eye & his t-shirt to that on pg. 9.

Not to play one-upmanship, but one of my greatest coups was to buy the original pencil of
that picture from Tim Bradstreet himself at DragonCon four years ago. I have loved that
picture ever since I saw it in the SR rulebook, and the chance to pick up some original
art was a chance I couldn't pass up.

Funny story that Tim told me about that picture. Apparently, he had a friend with an
AK-47 that he used as a model for that picture. Some time later that guy was arrested by
the ATF for selling illegal weapons. Hey, I'm THIS close to the underworld. Cool.

You lucky SOB! What are the measurements of the picture? I think it would
look really good above my bed. *wink*wink*nudge*nudge*

My turn! Went to a convention in Kansas a few years ago, and there sits Tim
as an Artist Guest of Honor. After telling him I really like his work for
SR, I ask if he would autograph my 2nd editon hardcover. He proceeds to
draw, on the blank inside cover page, this cybered Preadator-like thing!
Way too cool

You as well,...what am I? Chopped liver? Everyone is getting personalized
stuff, and I'm still waiting for his Website to go online! Sheesh!
