ALT Game 1988 Illustration Calendar clean artwork by Yukihisa Fujita used for the July page. Image depicts a cartoonish rendition of a fighter jet plane being torned apart in the middle of heavy smoke while a female pilot with green hair, in a yellow skirt and red top is being ejected. There's an aircraft carrier on the bottom left while a blue sky can be seen in the background. This art is allusive to After Burner II as is written on the calendar.
ALT Game 1988 Illustration Calendar clean artwork by Kia Asamiya used for the May page. Image depicts a young woman with long purple hair in a racing suit with the top portion open showing a bit of cleavage, seated on her side on top of a futuristic looking arcade machine for Super Hang-On with some tubes coming out from the bottom. The background is plain white. Some Japanese text can be seen on the bottom that reads: "Super Hang-On, NUDA version, just kidding."
ALT Game 1988 Illustration Calendar clean artwork by Meiru Notsugi used for the March page. Image depicts a young woman with grey wavy hair, a grey blouse with a small red ribbon on the shoulder, and red lips, staring up towards the left side. The background features her face with a dotted pattern in red contrasting with a green dotted pattern behind. There are some teared down spots with cherry blossom leaves on the left, upper right, and bottom right. The calendar page mentions the game Cleopatra no Mahou but I'm unsure if this is a character (or inspired by) from that particular game.
ALT Game 1988 Illustration Calendar clean artwork by Tororoimo No.1 featured on the cover. Image depicts a curious rendition of Samus Aran from the Metroid series, wearing her armor but with some key differences, mainly her arms with focus on the cannon. She's also brunette instead of blonde for whatever reason but my guess is that the character wasn't fully established back then. There's also a monster behind her which can be Ridley or Kraid (or none of those). The background is plain black with some white spots posing as stars.
