His art was a huge influence of so many of us in the day. Funny enough I was not one of them. He was a great artist, no argument there, but I never cared for the thud and blunder style of his art. It was just too, metal I guess.
I preferred softer fare like Hildebrand or later Elmore.
However (and I nicked this image from Wikipedia and am using under assumed fair use as tribute to the artist) I have to admit this one heck of a piece of art

Frank Frazetta.
Conan may not have had that much gymnasium muscle but that is a powerful work.
