Description: Barclay Shaw's box art for the 1992 game WarpSpeed from Accolade, a space flight simulator. Barclay Shaw's intertwined "B.S." signature/initials can be seen on the painting, but among the published materials are only visible on the front of the SNES manual. The cockpit window frame was a separate illustration. The illustration was done for the San Jose, California design agency "Darien & Kilburg." Barclay Shaw filled in for another artist that was too busy to do the assignment. He had a one week deadline, which with FedEx back and forth, left him with about two days to do the paintings (main image and cockpit frame). The original painting was sold in the early 1990s at a science fiction convention, possibly Boskone, and the rough of the ship has also been sold. OVGA is hosting the provided images as well as the notes and other details from Barclay to help document this work.
