Description
Conan pinup. Supposedly a frontispiece illustration for The Savage Sword of Conan but I've never seen the published art. Does anyone know where (or even if) this was published?

...i believe this was published in "savage sword of conan" b+w mag in the early 80's?...when larry hama was editing....i believe there was like a 4 or 5 page "toth conan portfolio" in that issue....i'm pretty sure i saw this drawing...like 25 years ago!....i also wonder about the size toth drew this as well....he liked working closer to "print" size....like 8x10 inches....i doubt he did this larger than 11x17....but you never know....

I feel that this is kind of weird observation, but I'm amazed to notice that the art in its thumbnail size is almost as distinct as when it is viewed it at full-size. In fact, seeing it that way, made me appreciate the art all the more.
