Description
My first, and probably only, finished piece by Adam. This piece was used as a promotional piece for Free Comic Book Day by a Toronto comic shop. (Finished poster also in this gallery.) And apparently was also published as the cover of Sketch Magazine #39, which features a cover story on the artist.

I know EVERYONE says it – but you would not believe the detail on this piece in person. All of the bubbles in the bubble wrap are hand drawn. The hatching on the blue jeans is amazing. And would you look at that ... face. ;-)

A big thanks to Allison and Mr. Hugs for letting me have the chance to hang this on the wall.

Wow. This is a really amazing piece! I generally like pieces with major characters, but this is such a wonderful piece of art, it just draws attention all on its own. Congrats on a magnificent acquisition!

Make sure you have a signed contract of death on that framer, incase he spills his coffee on it, his family will know that it is only fair to kill him.

Way to go Mike! The detail on this piece is just sick. And I love where Adam chose to sign the art - No fan's going to miss that AH!

I feel the same way about my AH! cover. The scans just don't do the artwork justice. I like this, nice pick up.

Man, that Hughes fella can sure draw a pretty picture! The scary part is he's only getting better! Congratulations on adding such a beautiful cover to your growing Hughes collection.

Every now and then, I run across pieces on the CAF with all these Views and all these Comments and I wonder what all the fuss is about. But THIS, this is a piece worth going crazy over! Absolutely gorgeous! Love everything about it, the design, the compostion, the linework, the details, everything! Congrats Mike, she's a beauty!!!!!

I would definitely buy a Robot For Dummies book! Too bad there isn't one. (Or is there?) Great pic! As always, Hughes is full of the clever and sexy!

Beatiful piece Mike. I like the whimsical nature of this piece, and the details and execution of the drawing itself is just masterful.

SUPERB piece, full of charm, humor, intelligence, incredible technique, and a stunning protagonist; everything we love about Adam's work.  Beautiful - what a treasure!  Congrats!

One of my favorite Hughes pieces! The inks are just incredible with that detailed crosshatching playing against the clean lines of the tech. Outstanding! 

 Kin W Member Since 2007

Adam's drawn a lot of really nice images over the years, but this might be my favorite one on CAF.  The rendering on the pants contrasts with the simpler lines on her figure (and even the robot), and her facial expression is just perfect.  Huge congrats!

Sally is SO cute.  Her face is adorable.  This is one of the few times I'll say I really like the color version even more than the black and white.  Black and white = amazing / colored version = freakin' amazing.
