I cant believe i never commented on this. Probably because i was so jealous. There are no words to describe how amazing this is.

I think the reason I didn't comment on this before is that it already had so many by the time I laid eyes on it. However, I've looked at it several times now and I just can't help myself this time. Adams love of the subject matter shines through in every single tiny detail he worked into this image.

Loved the Creature as a kid, even though the movies were before my time.  I had a glow in the dark figure at one point.  Art Adams rockin it out with a million lines!

I've already left one comment for you on this brilliant piece...in fact, mine was the very first comment you received on it. I just looked at it again much later, thought, and would like to add something further.

I'm not, in all frankness, an Art Adams fan. I know he's hugely popular here, etc,, etc., but I particularly dislike many of his female pieces, as an art style, per se.

Having said all that, I nonetheless submit that his forte is creating intricately detailed "monster" pieces like this one. This illustration, in fact, is little short of a masterpiece, and Arthur is probably/no doubt about it/ unimpeachably THE Gill Man artist of all of them. No one can touch him when he renders this character!

Staggering detail! Such a powerful image. Art Adams doing what he does best.

Was just checking out your latest update and figured since I was already here, I might as well leave another comment to express how much I love this.  Hope you're doing well and having a great 2024 so far.

Your whole CFTBL gallery is terrific, not none of the pieces have as much impact as this one.  Arthur Adams totally nailed it.
