RIP indeed.

I was a big fan of his work back in my schooldays, mostly due to to the covers of Robert E Howard books and Molly Hatchet albums!  I think I still have one or two of his books.

that is sad to hear.  one of the truly iconic artists of 20th century popular culture, and criminally underrated by the "art" crowd.  hell of a legacy though! 
cry HAVOC!! and let slip the pigs of war!!!

I'll have to flick over the covers of the Conan books and the White Dwaft mag covers as I think he did some of them as well.
