I like the illustration. Right on the edge between amateur and the slicker professional art that came later. Do you know where this is from? I don't recognize it.

I got it from Google by way of pinterest, so I don't know. But I just used this site tineye.com/ to track down this blog post that tells us it is truly old school. warlockshomebrew.blogspot.com/2009/11/fridays-fantasy-art.html. Here you go hengest

Love this meme Mr Dreamer and as long as the guys dress like that, I am happy to dress like that too. Level playing field, that's all I ask.

Love this meme Mr Dreamer and as long as the guys dress like that, I am happy to dress like that too. Level playing field, that's all I ask. If I looked like those two, I sure would dress like that. Alas, at almost 65, those days are long gone for me. The thing people forget is that if you discount the fact that Conan usually wore the best armor he could get and not the fur bikini he is drawn in, is this, if the men and women are all dressing like Red Sonja and Conan, they AC wise everyone is on the same playing field. But a real Conan and a real Red Sonja would both be well armored. Artist draw them that way to make a sale and sell the product and it has worked so they keep doing it. But like the mini skirts of my childhood years and similar styles today(for men and women), you really shouldn't wear it if you don't have the looks for it and usually only young people can pull it off, sadly too many older people are deluded into thinking they've still go it and extremely few do. When I was 6'3" and 210 lbs, yeah I could pull off the Conan look, but that part of life is pretty fleeting for most, although elite athletes and the pampered movie star or model can push it further than most. Shame we don't all look like that from 20 to at least 70.
