Another Skill Question: Artist (Holography)
 
Does anyone see this as a missing specialty? I could argue for it to be Artist (Illusion) or Artist (Sculpting) but I think it is separate and would like to see other's opinions on this.

That seems fair. Lists of specialties are always incomplete for skills that require specialization. That leaves the door open for later authors to invent new skills without really inventing new skills . . . and the implicit inter-specialty default lets existing PCs attempt newly invented specialties if they must without the GM having to retcon skills onto character sheets.

Good point! I'll note that for my GURPS Star Wars game.
