Sorry to hear of his passing. He had a great life and success with his art.
A monthly HOARD for Frazetta inspired figures would be great, he has lots of monsters and such to choose from. I know I have this figure in my reference for folder, I wanted to make this dark knight. JIM

I've been in love with Dejah Thoris and her pout for nearly fifty years. There's a hole in the talent pool.
Lift a cold one and toast his passing.

I know I have this figure in my reference for folder, I wanted to make this dark knight. JIM That would be awesome Jim! I'm in! Glenn, boy that's an iconic cover isn't it. I can think of at least 3 movies that have coped that composition. (pasted from my post over at Ebbles) The man who's name is synonymous with the Fantasy Genre... his heavily be-muscled, scantily clad figures fighting off large beasties on mountain scapes under tumultuous skies have reached the level of high art. Here are a few little known ones to me: Ringo, The Savage Barbarians of Battlestar Galactica. Thank you Frank for leaving a tremendous legacy of awe inspiring artwork, that my hormone driven youth at once craved it's tangible qualities, and my later somewhat refined artistic mind, fell in love with your technique and attention to the quality and weight of flesh as well as composition and color. Your body has expired and your soul moved on, but your work has left you immortal in the eyes of your admirers. ~Floyd This is what happens if you accidentally bump into Conan in a pub.
