Anyone know who the artist is/was? I got it from the last draft of T20 before it was worked up for publication. It was this low of a resolution there as well. I am looking to get a proper citation for it and maybe a higher detailed version.

That looks very much like Bryan Gibson's art. Unfortunately, Bryan passed away in 2014 and his daughter has taken down most of the gallery's with his original art.
 
I would assume the organic bug style of design is traceable to a specific edition, and Tee Twenty sounds about right.

That should place it in the (relative) early days of our internet, and despite the meme, if there was a more detailed drawing, it might be lost.

Forward ramp might be inspired by then Prequel trilogy of Star Wars, the hull sort of reminds me of Eighties British scifi art.
