For what fantasy serie(s) did he draw?

I thought about not posting a some of those for your benefit but it's the sort of nudity you'd see in any art museum.

Mr. Frazetta worked on a number of comics as a young lad (such as Shining Knight and assisting on Flash Gordon) but is most well known for his book covers including Conan, Tazan, and John Carter of Mars. He worked on the movie Fire and Ice which he created most of the story for, and many of the characters. I heard he was unsatisfied with the actors (it was rotoscoped animation) and so he did many of the scenes himself (he was a buff dude). He also did a number of album covers, the most famous being the Death Dealer painting (2nd one I posted) for Molly Hatchet's self-titled album.

Yusuke Nakano, a lead artist for Nintendo's Legend of Zelda series, cites Frazetta as an influence.
