wrhgWhere can you find blade-bearing, buxom babes in chainmail bikinis frolicking with frightening monsters from the pit?  Well, Dragon*Con, obviously.  But I’m talking about the artwork of Steve Fastner and Rich Larson.  Creating fantastical and titillating images of art the old fashioned way–before computer magic and digital cmhthr image manipulation–they craft their amazing masterpieces out of nothing but their imaginations and their handy-dandy airbrush.

Check out their collection of imperiled babes, endangered hotties, maidens on the brink of disaster, and warrior women defeating evil bug-eyed beasts that go “hump-in-the-night”!  Rich Larson will be doing con sketches, showing and selling F&L original art, books, and prints at the Art Show’s Artist Bazaar throughout the weekend at Dragon*Con.
