RED SONJA - by Sanjulian

I'd seen his work on various magazine covers throughout the 1970's I always loved his figure work and his backgrounds are as mysterious and cloudy just like Frank Frazetta's.  But this RED SONJA has a very unique look and feel to it.  I've never seen an original depiction that I liked very much.  When I think of Red Sonja I'm thinking Frank Thorne , Buscema , Maroto.  You know a particular LOOK.  This is the first time I'm seeing this and I think it's classic and beautiful.

  2. This sorta reminds me of Chris Achilleos.

    I should check through my Achilleos archives to see if he's ever done Sonja or a Sonja-like warrior woman. I can remember a bunch of blond tough-women, but no redheads.
