I can smell the 80s on this and it smells like a smoker’s house (I promise I mean it in a nonderogatory way, that describes my childhood home lol).

I can understand why people aren’t into the titty armor, but I respect putting it on both the men and the women.

lots of warriors opted out of armor and clothing, instead using the mobility and shields for protection.

I love Grecian gods of people dressed scantily fighting monsters. Its the best part of the 80s.

For real. Women, men, aliens, monsters, they're all practically naked. Equal opportunity impractical clothing.

Society has regressed so far😞

I love this art style.
From a time when a painter would lock themselves into their workshop with a TV, a shelf full of gay porn VHS and a couple grams of LSD, and the new D&D set's cover was born.
