commentary

One thing that you used to see all the time in fantasy role-playing games (and novels based on such) is a painting or drawing of the scantly-clad buxom female. It's not as prevalent in the RPG industry these days, quite possibly because game manufacturers realized it might not be a good idea to alienate half of their potential customers.

The worst offender I can recall was for some sort of adventure supplement for D&D's World of Greyhawk. The woman in question was some sort of barbarian warrior, in a snowy forest. For some reason, all she was wearing was a fur bikini. The artist had drawn the fur bikini in a way that the shading under the breasts did look like she was wearing a bikini pelt that was covered in about two inches of animal hair. The strange thing was the erect nipples this ice age bikini-wearing amazon sported. Either the bikini top only had fur at the bottom of the boobage area, or she had mutant three-inch long spikes instead of nipples.
