Racing Turtles

Frank Frazetta’s cover for Carson of Venus by Edgar Rice Burroughs.

Another (slightly plagiarized) version:

While Frank Frazetta may have been the first to draw Conan mostly naked, he is not responsible for the sluttiest depiction of Conan. No, that would be Chis Achilleos, who gave us the cover art for the 1989 edition of Robert E. Howard’s World of Heroes

…was. Was the lifting the booty to the camera with your sword really necessary, Conan. 

I mean yeah.

Look at them THEWS!!!

older lotr illustrations sometimes depict éowyn wearing ridiculously small armour. apart from the problem general sexualisation of the only female character (who really does anything), there’s another hilarious thought:

éowyn pretended to be dernhelm, a man. to fit in, she must have worn men’s armor. so the armor in the illustrations is normal for rohirrim.

therefore, all the rohirrim rode to war just like that:

there’s a thundering sound in the distance as the rohirrim ride into war but rather than hoofbeats it’s the collective sound of all their cheeks clapping

the artist for this particular piece is Frank Frazetta and to be fair to him this is how he drew the orcs armor 

so the rohirrim comment is probably not that far off

That’s a man who just straight up had a problem with the concept of wearing pants into battle, and I respect that

male or female

hero or villain

sea or land

even in the snow

I guarantee you Frazetta’s Rohirrim were 100% pants-free

Good Old Frank. That man loved bodies and hated clothes so much

Frank Frazetta was the reason He-Man was designed like that; the producers conduct a study to see what art appeal the most to children, and Frank’s work came out on top in popularity. So everyone in He-Man is dressed the way they are directly because of Frazetta.

That man gave us the gift of warrior thighs and tits for everyone.

Ah, it has been too long since I have seen the no pants post on my dash. And yes, this is a rare case where it wasn’t some sexist nonsense but an egalitarian No Pants Agenda.

To be fair, if Frank Franzetta had drawn my ass I would not wear pants under any circumstances.
