Wayne goes the extra mile to draw accurate tanks and other military equipment. This prelim might be for an interior page in his Katusha: Girl Soldier of the Great Patriotic War. 

Good to know, I'll check it out!

Nice to see this story again. It was reprinted in EWOFT #6, but originally printed in the 1977 issue of Savage Sword of Conan #29. these are about 8x10" and the ink and wash was done on a 2-up page size original.

Thanks for the heads up!  I'll certainly pick up that issue of SSOC.

Thanks! I'm working up to getting my first Nagel.

What a steal for you, considering the price it sold on Heritage in April....an excellent addition to your quite impressive Omaha artwork collection. Well done.....and of course I'm jealous.

Thanks, Mark! It pales in comparison to your great collection of Omaha, but I'm working on it!

Great piece!  I was an underbidder on HA for this, but glad to see it went to a special collection and someone that appreciates some Gianni and REH work.  As a consolation, the following week I was able to get a Krenkel from Sowers of the Thunder :-)

Never seen this one before. You have some great stuff in your collection.

Thanks, I was fortunate to pick this one up at auction and stands at almost 5 feet tall! Marked as painted in 1977, same year as his Kiss Love Gun album cover, but obviously not as well known 😄

You forgot to add in your description that if you know where the original Frazeeta oil painting is , you can try the old switcheroo. It works in art theft crime movies.

Ha, sounds like fun but don't think this is going to fool anyone for very long.

Wonderful!  Hadn't seen the ink or painting before.  Is that Kaluta posing for this?

I believe it was done around the mid 90s when the card sets for FPG were released. I also find it interesting the prelim originally had a sword by his side, which makes me think it's similar to other warrior works by Jonesat the time. The Kaluta theory is an interesting one!

Jonny, thanks for the comment. I have not bid on a Ken Kelly painting in over a decade. 
But the two culprits bidding against you, I know who they are. Lol

Ken Kelly is one of the most underrated masters IMO. Who will get his due. His 1970s work is unparalleled. And some of his 1980s work and 1990s work is exquisite too. 
keep bidding. They are still steals in auction.

Thanks for the reply, and I'm definitely going to keep at it!

Awesome painting , congrats

Thanks! I was quite surprised at how much more vibrant the colors were than what I'd seen in books and card sets, but I guess that's quite common.

Beautiful mixture of Boris' fantasy painting and the hip 80's young men's fashions sold by Chess King at retail stores often found in shopping malls.  They were like the Abercrombie of their time to understand what was macho and what would appeal to young men.  Images of like this of handsome, virile, and rugged looks that males saw themselves as, with sexy alien babes clinging on to them created a fantasy that sold!

Thanks for the comment and I completely agree that it so well represents the 80s with the outfits and expressions. Plus a bit of that fantasy flair that Boris is known for!
