I would love to see Mike's finished result of this image. With that thought in mind I had an attempt at colouring in the image and adding some contrast  with photoshop. I think it looks okay but I still prefer the original sketch.

A thought has just occurred to me, according to Jane Frank's excellent book "A biographical Dictionary Science Fiction and Fantasy Artists ofthe Twentieth Century."  Jane mentions that Mike Hinge designed a cryobionic unit for Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, which unfortunately wasn't used. Could this picture and the other 4 pictures of the Cryogenics capsule be part of that project?
