Give the UPS guy an extra hug. Hard to imagine how much time it took Finlay to do this.

OMG! That's a jaw-droppingly cool work of art by the incredible Virgil Finlay! I am blown away by the intricate crosshatching he employs to create the whole scene! Love the futuristic city behind the woman! Congrats!

Should such a young looking chap be ogling older ladies? This is what happens when your focus moves from tigers to cougars! Whats that sound? Your mothers calling. Find your stuffed toy, Calvin.

Unless I have gone mad, I cannot remember ever seeing this Finlay before. In what I consider his transition period. I always think of his artwork in terms of periods as his art style shifted over time. Sadly, I have to settle for just one finished illustration by him. When your tears of sympathy and empathy end, you can send one over in my direction.

I'll keep that in mind! :)
