Uh, yeah. Admittedly most of the art isn't all that aesthetically pleasing to me but when viewed through the lens of nostalgia part of me still likes it. This is one of my favorite illustrations from the 1st edition PHB (I think it was from the PHB). Part of the reason I like it is because of the armored dude. I much prefer armor that looks like something people actually wore compared to the Dungeon Punk vibe of 3rd edition although a lot of what I see in 5E isn't too bad.Is that what they originally looked like!?!? Gosh, original D&D art was awful. I far prefer 5e's art to any art that I've seen from previous editions. (Also, a slightly off-topic question, but have Beholders always had their eye-stalks at the top of their head, like a crown? I always imagined them to be in a circular pattern around the side of their body.)
